If you unironically use "time blindness" as an excuse for always being late, you are a complete moron.

Why? Not that i use that as an excuse. But why would that make you a moron?

Because being horrible with time is a predictable thing. As a human being, we have the ability to plan and act in ways that compensate for predictable weaknesses.

If you notice you're always late, but you never try to leave earlier, you're either a moron or an asshole.

I have severe time blindness. I'm either right on time or a few minutes before. I rely on the various scales of time available to me. Edit: to say I'm speaking exclusively to "time blindness". Someone with full blown ADHD may have other factors interfering with their ability to utilize these tools of time measurement/management. I can't speak to that.
