The characters's behaviour...? I don't follow. You said you saw a picture?

It depends on how your dislike manifests. If you just take yourself out of the equation and leave them be, that's self-care. Telling them to stop a behaviour that they can't help because of some disability, telling them they're "lesser", that's ableist.

How is you liking that character relevant?

This seems like a good overview.

Yeah, I should've looked it up first, Russell Barkley says it's 30% (I got a digit correct yay!). I know what you mean, all my classmates somehow seemed much more mature than me and I had no way to express that feeling back then.

There seems to be evidence that ADHD brains are a few years behind in development. I think I remember it being 3 years on average? Don't quote me, I have ADHD and my brain shouldn't be trusted with details. Anyway, that really shouldn't result in the kind of behaviour OP is describing though.

I know English does, but e.g. German doesn't, that's why I'm interested. A "Badezimmer" (literally "bathroom" or "bathing room") is very much a room in private homes (or hotel rooms) where you take a shower or a bath. That's usually also where the loo toilet is, for convenience reasons. A communal / public room with the single purpose of using the toilet (like in a shop) is "the toilet(s)", one with the purpose of taking a shower (like at a gym) is "the shower(s)". (This probably says something about Germans in general)

And now I'm waiting for some compatriot to rip me a new one because in their dialect it's perfectly normal to look for the "Badezimmer" at Kaufhof and wtf am I talking about.

Derailing because I'm randomly interested: does (Mexican) Spanish say "baño" for the room where you go to pee? Even if there's nothing but a loo and a basin there? I know next to no Spanish but according to my general knowledge about languages "baño" looks more like somewhere you primarily take a bath rather than a place to pee. I thought that kind of euphemism was a very US thing.

If you asked someone in public in my native language for the "bathroom", they would probably understand you need the loo but look at you funny.

There were certain decisions made to specifically deviate from what had developed organically. These are the exception.

See, that's the thing, most countries don't care. If they did, they'd request the international community refer to them as something else. But they don't, so they don't. This is a non-issue.

Kleeneges.

Because they do business in Türkiye.

Okay, but what if I depict security as a pug?

What I'm saying is I'm having trouble with the initial premise, not necessarily the conclusion.

There's a whole village, basically within arm's reach, where pigs and wine grow in abundance.

Well I knew many of them have issues acknowledging the benefits of having a social contract. Didn't know things were desperate enough that people put forced mechanics in place to make sure they at least have a chance of learning the basics.

Herbertwestium, specifically the crystallised form.

So Americans have to be forced to learn how to comply with a social contract?

Universal Basic Income first.

This is way too confusing for me to follow but it sounds vaguely like we mean the same thing.

It depends on where you're speaking from.

If you're in the US, people were immigrating from Europe and to the US and are now emigrating to Europe and from the US.

Easiest solution is to say migrating :)
