Pink: “You could be a responsible person and be productive right now.”

Green: “🥺”

There is additional context that “do the thing” in ADHD speak usually means completing the task that has been stressing you out, but that you keep putting off and feeling guilty about. Taking a nap instead, in such cases, is more about de-stressing and forgiving yourself for another day of failing the task rather than being lazy. In the comic, this conversation takes place between two characters, but in reality it’s usually an individual, internal process.

Edit: Additionally, I translated “floor time” as “nap”, but it could be any non-stressful activity, even just laying on the floor, wide awake, and staring at the ceiling.
