    Don’t apologize for posting something good just because some people can’t help but project their ADHD.

      ADHD is a diagnoseable condition that has nothing to do with what you are trying to say. Break the stigma. I have loved ones with ADHD. It’s not the butt of a joke or something to call someone. People don’t make fun of people with anemia. This is no different. It’s a medical thing that the individual isn’t at fault for or has a choice in. If anything, a person with ADHD deserves understanding and patience.

        Thanks. I’m pretty open about my crippling ADHD and I never sent a judge a “fee schedule.”

        …and I can’t even force myself to watch those funny videos of sovereign citizens getting pulled over because they’re usually too long!
