I have literally used this tweet to get out of bed and do party work/ apply to jobs/ hang out with friends/ follow through on commitments to my partner. i don't see "you people" as being all people with adhd, but a particular type of person with adhd whom i work hard not to be like. people who infantilize themselves into nothing, and are awful to be around, usually white people who actively make being around them difficult.
and like im someone who has a breakdown a few times a month because i hate my brain, and i have to wake up 2-3 hours early for everything so i can leave the house in time.
we learned about it in class and debated eachother, we read the kids times magazine, we thought obama was gonna cut the school week down to four days a week and give us all free yummy lunches. also i wanted a president that looked like me (i thought hillary was cool for being a woman but i heard she was gonna send us to war and i thought that was scary) . i made a full presentation for my family as to why they should vote for Obama. its one of my few memories i have of second grade tbh. oh and i thought obama was anti war and i was very anti war becuase duh
always weird to find protest/event pictures on myself online, especially reddit, still not used to it. not posted by my party i mean, like from random people.
i was most radicalized by learning about Vietnam first and then the black panthers through that. was a ho chi mihn stan in 11th grade, got very into the 60's and 70s in general. learned about the soviet union through a boy i thought was cute.
