Learning? I object. I know I’m not alone in the neurodiverseiverse when I say that learning is my one unwavering hobby / passion. Every time I become fixated on a new subject the goal is always to learn everything about it. I might go as far as to say that learning is the main thing that makes life seem slightly meaningful, myself. Being ND, I just can’t manage to ever maintain focus long enough to become an expert or a specialist on any one thing but I have gained a general knowledge of a ton of random things instead.
I know a little about a lot of things, not a lot about one or a few things.
It’s remarkable how far one comes with that strategy, especially early in life
Homework and learning for exams is for the neurotypical
Homework — sure, not gonna argue with that.

It’s different when you are actually interested in something vs you are forced to gobble up and regurgitate information.
