Marcus Helvig<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Representation" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Representation</span></a> in media matters. The more minorities are presented in media, the more they feel seen. For <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/NeurodiverityCelebrationWeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NeurodiverityCelebrationWeek</span></a>, I want to recognise <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/StarWars" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>StarWars</span></a> for having a character with <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ADHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ADHD</span></a> in 1977. R5-D4 was bought by Luke’s Uncle, but as the droid rolled to its new owners, it ground to a halt with smoke pouring from its top. Luke examines the droid, saying "This R2 unit has a bad motivator." If there's ever a description of ADHD, it's having a bad motivator! <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RepresentationMatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RepresentationMatters</span></a></p>
