Lowkey bummed I don’t have any of the sexy makes-you-a-superhero-genius afflictions like Asperger’s, ADHD, synesthesia, or generational trauma. Just dumb ones — high cholesterol and prediabetes. Not even inherited as heirloom conditions, just mindless eating. Not even left-handedness. Does aphantasia count?

Imo aphantasia is a peer of all the above. I say this as a lefty who failed to achieve intellectual greatness despite spending a brief period in a wheel chair at a young age.
