UPDATE: the About page is done!

I know I’m in serious #hyperfocus mode when I skip my morning leisure reading time and go straight to working on a project.

In this case, it’s my almost-finished adhd blog. I have to tighten up the #CSS (ie styles/look/feel), write an About page & welcome post, and optimize the site for performance.

It’s not going to get done today, but there will be progress.

Hi, I’m Arp! I got diagnosed with ADHD at 49, and now I'm trying to figure out what's me, what's masking, and just about everything else. I make comics (when imposter syndrome isn't striking) and write about life as a creative Indian-American. I’m self-taught, self-employed, and self-flagellating.

More Notes & Asides

It’s so irritating when you ask a question online and people answer questions you didn’t even ask. I thought about adding ‘If you don’t have an answer to the actual question asked please feel free to not reply’ but I thought that sounded a little douchey. But a little douchiness would have avoided future me’s irritation. #PetPeeves #SocialMedia

Just completed a #WeeklyReview for the first time ever, after spending a couple of weeks wrangling with #Obsidian & the Templater plugin (and reading too many how to posts from people who all do things differently). I’m finding daily notes helpful for thinking about what I want to get done and clear my head early in the day, and the weekly review is something I’ve been putting off for a couple of years until I had a process that made sense (mad props to Obsidian for being the vehicle for this) #Productivity is such a challenge with #adhd because 99% of the neurotypical advice just doesn’t work for us. So it’s a struggle not only finding something that might work, but tweaking it until it makes sense for my specific brain. #PKM #Neurodiversity #AdultADHD #ADHDer

This #Caturday, have a #cat butt. I’m also testing writing in #WordPress first & crossposting to #Mastodon; I added some #IndieWeb functionality to pull comments to posts like this into #WP. #FunFact: my #Skyrim character name was Catbutt and yes, I was #Khajiit. #Cats #CatsOfMastodon #CaturdayEverday

I find #languages – pronunciations, nuances, #etymology, et al – fascinating; the #Otherwords #PBS series is right up my alley. & it’s #ADHDFriendly, as the videos are super engaging. #TIL that there’s a distinct connection between the #dialects of Boston, Nu Yawk, the Deep South, all centered around the letter R. Also, this video might help you roll your Rs if that skill escapes you. #adhd #rhotics
