    Not to gatekeep pacifism, but I would really struggle to justify taking another human life, even when seeing red. It would probably take long enough to get over that hurdle for what I was trying to prevent to occur. I am a physically large man and could do a lot of damage, so when I’ve been hit in the past I’ve found other methods of de-escalating the situation. Not applicable in every situation. But it would be something I’d have to put a lot of thought into.

    Yep. Just because you do something in a nonsensical, stupid way doesn’t mean you have ADHD or that is what someone with ADHD would do. People with ADHD are also “intellectual.”

    For me, this is how I’d solve 9+7:

    Day 1: Fuck it, I’ll do it tomorrow

    Day 2: Alright gotta do that problem now! Just gonna eat and take a walk to prepare my mind

    Day 3: okay for real this time

    Day 4: staring intently at problem for half an hour before getting incredibly inspired to do anything else

    Day 5: anxiety

    Day 6: paralyzed but anxiety

    Day 7: Either I actually try to do it and it takes 30 seconds or I give up entirely and flunk the class

    Not “hehe quirky look at me I’m so stupid because my brain does things differently, ur so smart I wish I was like you and not so dumb! x3”
