💜 Big 💚 Roux 💛 @thegatesofmel.blacksky.app · 02/01/2025Being late is ultimately rude, but as someone who sits firmly on the time blindness side I’d ADHD, it can be way more than “you don’t respect other people.” 1020029
Aunty @auntywilly.blacksky.app · 02/01/2025I have a few friends who experience this. They communicate when they’re running late. THAT is understandable and respectful. 0180
jeremy bearimy✨ @simplysope.bsky.social · 02/01/2025Yeah, I’m usually pretty punctual but if someone I love really can never be on time, I’ll either lie about the time or get over it 😭 I understand why it can upset ppl but seeing my friends >>>> 140
Jamie Bronstein @tomduncombe.bsky.social · 02/01/2025"Time blindness" = self-centeted laziness awkwardly shoehorned into a disability framework. 710
Bill Stewart @billstewart.bsky.social · 02/01/2025I'm also somebody who doesn't mind if others are a bit late. But I got a lot better at punctuality when I had a job with frequent nearby customer meetings; our standard was "customer's lobby 15 minutes before the scheduled time." 000
Kris Powell @tanktastrophe.bsky.social · 02/01/2025Yet people with ADHD who have spent the entire day unable to do anything else just so they can show up on time are expected to be completely fine with having their schedule thrown off. Consideration isn't just one way. 2221
ʟᴇɢꜱ ʙᴇɴᴇᴅɪᴄᴛ ✨ @maybecam.blacksky.app · 02/01/2025i have adhd and timeblindness and i didn't know it until a year ago, but even then i made it my mission to stop being late, especially VERY late to things bc I didn't like the anxiety of it or the shame i felt making others wait. so i learned to plan backward from the time of the event. 1313
Nick @caporale.net · 03/01/2025Lol I'll usually set aside too much time to compensate, then find I have too much leftover time and wander into something else, then end up running out late despite being ready for an hour 🤦♂️ 000
💜 Big 💚 Roux 💛 @thegatesofmel.blacksky.app · 02/01/2025Your brain is going off on all these side missions, so you have a skewed view of how long things take. I had the habit of scheduling things for how long they are supposed take with no room for error. 2997
