Iβm not surprised to learn that Benn Jordan also has #ADHD (many of us artists and musicians do). Bless him for shining a light on whatβs been causing the treatment shortage for it, and fuck the DEA.

I spent most of the day cutting and trimming a rug to fit my studio better, now that I have speaker stands. And I only burned myself once with the glue gun. Huzzah!
In addition to Mirlo, I intend to get my music up on Faircamp, Funkwhale, Jam Co-op, etc.
But it took more time than I expected to get established on Mirlo, so when I went to the Faircamp site and saw a completely different setup that looks even more complicated, my brain was like NOPE. DRUGS ALL GONE. NOT ENOUGH BRAINS LEFT FOR TASK. 
But Iβll get there. Eventually.

It took me nearly all afternoon and ALL of my drug-assisted Executive Function, but I finally have my music up on Mirlo!

Things Iβve forgotten to do today:
1. Eat food
2. Drink water
3. Stand up periodically
4. Laundry
5. Shop for Xmas gifts
And what do I have to show for it?
Fixing a vocal part Iβm planning to RE-SING ANYWAY. OMFG
Mixing with #ADHD is hard.
Why is this plug in turned off? Did I mean to turn it off permanently, or just temporarily to listen to something else?
Did I know what I was doing when I set my attack and release? Did I figure it out mathematically based on the length of the drum kick, or the bpm of the song? Or did I just twist the knobs 'til it sounded good? Were my ears fresh when I did that? Are they fresher now?
I was playing back my latest mix and thinking hmm, everything sounds so crisp and clean and...separated. Guess I'm gonna have to throw some more reverb on this to glue it all together!
And then I discovered I had turned off ALL THE REVERBS. π π¬

Hey itβs #ADHD Awareness Month.
Today I recorded some vocal harmonies I previously forgot I needed to record. I also did some laundry.
I still have to wash and water Frances McDormand. π±

I almost forgot itβs ADHD Awareness Month. I was diagnosed in November 2021 after several of my friends posted ADHD memes and I recognized myself in them.
Finally being diagnosed and on meds has been great, overall. Itβs not a super power, even tho medication definitely empowers me.
Being on meds doesnβt give me more spoons, but it does mean my spoons are no longer all slotted.
