Thought this was interesting, as many with ADHD struggle with missing deadlines and perfectionism

I think most of us pick this up intuitively. The title is basically "water is wet" to those of us that have submitted stuff late all throughout school.

How can I submit something that isn't perfect?

Yeah, we may be taking longer than expected but I had to perfect this feature that, while it's true no one asked for it, I feel it would make the workflow better, and so I gotta fix it

Yes and if these dense mofos would let me take a while longer, everything would work better and company would literally make more money. But nobody really cares, it's all just about takin part in this weird social fiction that exists to pander someones ego.

That stock photo is irritating... Get out of bed and sit at a desk if you truly require that many devices.
