Laziness Does Not Exist by Devon Price
Did not finish book. Stopped at 15%.
I think I didn't enjoy this because I expected something else. I had just finished reading another one of Price's books, Unmasking Autism, and I assumed that this would go more into something like, "those with ASD, ADHD, and similar neurotypes are often stereotyped as 'not applying themselves' or 'lazy,'" and subsequently diving into the roots of this, debunking this, and adding commentary. As Unmasking Autism covered a wide breadth of topics, Laziness Does Not Exist would hone in on one.
As someone who's been in therapy for a long time and has tackled subjects like these and already knows about how Puritanism has really fucked with our senses of morality, it just wasn't that interesting. If you aren't familiar with that, though, it could be an interesting read.
