[ARCHIVE - Undoing Ruin] Moshing Happily Under Radioactive Ash: An ADHD-Focused Look At 2024 From Me.
One of my more acerbic and honest/critical self-reflective pieces (as well as just plain lengthy), this is an honest neurodivergent-peer review of 2024, originally posted to our prior now-dead website (RIP) late last year. I pull no punches here (and content warning - discussions of mental health, anxiety, depression etc) about the impact living with ADHD had on me last year, my whole life, and some frustrations with stereotypes. It’s not all bad, though - I discuss many positives about being ND, too!

[Riff] Don’t give up, there’s hope on the horizon.
In this Riff (article), Mal provides a nice little playlist broaching both alternative and pop-music titles from across a wide palette. (Plus, we get a playlist which is linked inside this post!). Most importantly, Mal provides some lovely, strengths-based reflections that are prompted/drawn from said songs. In these confusing, uncertain and chaotic times, it’s important to lean into this little nuggets of hope from our creative muses.
