I was just recently watching some video essay on youtube, but the narrator was sooo slow I had to speed it up 1.5× just to be able to concentrate an what he qas saying, and also to not waste my time listening to prolonged words and silence. Sometimes people just unecesseraly stretch the content.
That's what kills me the most. ADHD makes me want to go fast. But I think the tism makes me struggle to figure out wtf they're saying. It's a balancing act.
