Humor, jokes, memes about TTRPGs

Another player who was at the table during the incident sent me this meme after the problem player in question (they had a history) left the group chat.

Felt like sharing it here because I'm sure more people should keep this kind of thing in mind.

The thing is just that this started with a Psychonauts 2 character, and I haven't played it, so for all I know maybe it makes no difference. But I assume constant telekinesis is at least somewhat inconvenient in that world. What about someone like Toph from Avatar TLA, whose blindness is acknowledged occasionally, but most of the time functions fine?

A question might be, how do you define a sufficient amount of limitations? I'm sure there's a point where everyone will go "yeah, you may as well be healthy", but I assume most situations are a grey area. But I'm also neither disabled nor have experience with disabled people, so I'm probably the furthest from judging.

Also things like, how that magic carpet would be even more useful for a fully functioning person, even with a large amount of uses. Still a disadvantage on the merit of being the only option, rather than being AN option.
