    “procrastination” can be seen as avoiding tasks, but IMO we need a different word to describe it for tasks you want to do (which eventually get done) and those you don’t (which may not).

    seems to me capitalists favor using that word for the former case as an explanation of why people with ADHD take so long to do tasks; they want us to see mental and emotional pre-processing as “wasted time”

      I would recommend researching the terms “executive dysfunction” and “demand avoidance”.

      Demand avoidance is not the same as Pathological Demand Avoidance, which is a Autistic profile type, but maybe for fun look into that too!
