In this video oliSUNvia goes deep into neurodivergence, the western ideas about mental health and the expectations and assumption this brings about people, their brains and how things should or should not be in society.

A very good watch!

I don't want to be annoying but I'd really wish they'd provide a transcript or a written version to read in 3 minutes instead of watching 34 minutes, for those of us who have some sort of attention deficit.

Thia is particularly annoying here given this is a video about neurodivergence...

That's not annoying. It's perfectly understandable and a reasonable need.

We'll see if we can make one later for her video, but it might take a while to figure out how to write one that works.
