I had a LOT of fun making this with #greenroomireland‘s #punk #AffiinityDesigner assets. All strokes, graphics, & #textures are from their asset pack, except for the font (Futura) and the #skull, which is that of a modern cotton-top #tamarin (I took the photo at #Duke #Lemur Center’s cute little #museum). #greenroommedia #digitalart #textures #digitalillustrator #DigitalArt #MastoArt #Affinity #lowbrowart #lowbrowartist #posterdesign

More Notes & Asides
In other news, I spent an hour messing with a new color scheme for my #website last night. This is the 3rd color palette that I’ve used and I suspect it won’t be the last 😆 And I know that there are a LOT of colors, & that I can get rid of some of them. But #minimalism is not natural to me. Pretty sure this all relates to #adhd in some fashion 🤔
I could have finished my adhd blog last night (I just had to finish optimizing performance) but … I wasn’t totally thrilled with the colors and their use. Which led to a #rabbithole on UX (user experience), colors in websites & apps, and messing around with a plethora of color palette generators & tools (many of which were new to me and super cool). This prolly led to today’s insomnia as I hyperfocused & missed my melatonin window (at least that’s one theory I have for my shitty sleep).
It is AMAZING what catching up on #sleep can do for #MentalHealth. 3 days ago I was struggling, this morning I woke up refreshed and ready to jump back on all the horses I’ve ignored for 2w. #Sleep is the first domino of #selfcare that #ADHD-ers need to take care of. Gathering data and using technology has helped me to get back on track. When I looked at my sleep data for the month (see image), I saw how spotty sleep affected how I felt. The 2nd week was so bad that motivation cratered; I had to use last week to get my sleep back on track. I use two #iOS #apps for this: #AutoSleep (the screenshot source) and #RiseApp (it calculates #CircadianRhythms, the best times to sleep & wake, and tracks sleep debt). 3 nights of 8.5h of sleep caught me up, and I did it by going to ...
Just spent the last few days switching from #LastPass to #ProtonPass for passwords and #MFA. LastPass’ security f ups are well documented and I don’t trust them. I would’ve switched to Proton Pass sooner had I realized that my paying for #Protonmail included upgraded #password management. The clincher for me: Proton Pass includes #2FA! No more using a separate app, Proton Pass will copy & paste MFA codes too!
#JohnCarpenter’s #Halloween is one of our favorite #horror #movies, and this is my new favorite scene 😆 Also: I imagine #MichaelMyers talking to himself in #Beavis’ voice. #HeyLadies
