Why the World Isn't Built for Your Brain 🧠 #Neurodiversity #Shorts

It's really weird, isn't it? And I can only, I mean, in this precise moment, the thing that really comes to mind is that everything that we shape in the world is shaped from a largely neurotypical lens, right? And so there is a default that says, right, this is, this is the way XYZ goes, right? And it's, and it comes from a neurotypical standpoint. And sure, you know, it's a bit like the prevalence of whiteness as being such a, you know, challenging thing and, and all this kind of shit. Oh, there's— there's— I've dropped— I've dropped the S-bomb already. Wow, we're barely a couple of minutes in. Sorry, folks. I'm all in. That's very much a sorry, not sorry, folks, but there we are. Where I was going with that was that it kind of— whilst I realize there's a lot of scientific stuff that lives in this arena of executive function, executive dysfunction, and so on, and it's talking about a certain part of your brain and so on and so forth, yeah, it's just what, what's hidden under it is very much that whole executive functioning therefore means, like the subtext is, you should be able to show up at will in life or in business or work or wherever. And you should be able to do the thing that is being required of you or that is, you are requiring of yourself. And that might be challenging occasionally, but you certainly should be able to do it. If it's difficult, you should just be able to try harder. And so the subtext around executive function, or I'm struggling with my executive function or executive dysfunction, all that kind of stuff. It's just got this slightly— I'm going to throw a clever word out there now and go pernicious.
