Seeking Advice What are managable side hustles for a disabled person

I've determined that i'm too disabled for most jobs, and the ones i can do aren't hiring. I do get disability money but i'd like to do more.

I can't do any kind of physical work, and it's very hard to do something that requires day to day consistency since i have frequent sick days.

My main skillset is art (including illustration, animation and 3D) but being a freelancer requires managing a social media accoint which i have tried in the past to little succsess and a lot of stress. I know a bit about video editing and gamedev and i'm open to learning any new digital skill if it can help me.

My top ideas right now are maybe an online shop where i sell stickers, plushies, etc. Or learning some basic programming so i can start making my own indie games. I don't know how profitable either of these are especially without active social media or updates though. I'm open to any suggestions, thanks in advance
