Smth I hate as a nerodivergnt prsn is how ppl think if I mention it i am using it as a crutch

Like I misplaced my phone and bc of severe adhd I told my parents "sorry I have adhd and misplace stuff" YES ITS A PART OF MY ADHD TO MISPLACE OR NOT REMEMBER STUFF AND ALSO DONT GET ME STARTED ON SCHOOL IF I HEAR ANOTHER "you're just using your adhd and autism as an excuse I know you understand" I WILL EXPLODE

Honestly if we lived in a world that wasn't so abelist I'd be happy

“This is honestly a mood. I hate how most people are like “everyone struggles with that.”

“NOT TO THE EXTENT OF SOMEONE WHO IS AN AuDHDer!”

There's a discussion going on on Twitter about fictional bands consistent of 4Town, the 2 bands in that popstar demon hunters movie on netflix (I'm drawing a blank on their names ok!) And BroZone from Trolls, and now Alvin and the Chipmunks has been thrown in as a comparison

Seems like Alvin and the Chipmunks is winning out and it's almost exclusively because of Alvin's vocals. Which I say is straight FACTS

There's a reason why he's the front of the band, and his ego isn't from nothing. His vocals are so distinct and strong

We need another animated Alvin and the Chipmunks movie

“Okay so….apparently I was wrong. Just the music video for Betty released today. The full album drops on August 29th.”

“THAT FEELS LIKE A LIFETIME AWAY!!!”

“I guess I’ll just keep anticipating. The music video’s great though!”

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

“AJR ALBUM DROPS…”

“TOMORROW!!!”

“I feel like this is a massive exaggeration, but I will be sharin’ it regardless….”

“I HAVE WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS MOMENT!!!”

Saving the star of the show for last! It’s Alvin’s turn now! I originally was thinking about dividing it into 3 different sets of awards, but that’s not fair to the other munks who only get one.

So, all 3 versions of Alvin 2.0 will be represented here in these 5 nominations.

Reblog if possible so it reaches the fic readers!

First art of the new year is all about re-structuring your internal monologue.

In my early 20s I was working full time in London with many social commitments and a variety of hustles and side projects.

In my later mid 20s I cater to many sensory and social drain needs I have and indulge in special interests while respecting my lower energy reserves and celebrating my different way of processing the world.

Did I get more autistic? Nah. I got less fake.

[Art description: Three panels showing figures on a black background. Long descriptions follow.

1. A drawing of OP as a person with hip-length hair and a dress standing sadly with her hands clapsed together in front of her. She is coloured a muted rainbow gradient. Behind her, two pairs of nondescript figures chat while smiling. White text says, ‘I’m getting more and more autistic the older I get.’ 2. OP’s colours are brighter, and her expression looks happier. Crayon-like scribbles have crossed out the text from the previous panel. 3. OP’s colours are vibrant, and she balances on one leg and throws her arms out as she dances. The text above has changed to say, ‘I’m becoming more and more myself the older I get.’ \End descriptions]

“Because I am still majorly fixating on AJR’s new album coming out in less than TWO DAYS, I have decided to share a list of some of their lyrics that smacked me the hardest in the feels.”

“You ready? Here we go!”

“I wanna be big like my plans. So why’m I so tiny? and why’m I so mad?”

—Inertia

“I will unravel if you rip away my best pieces.”

—Role Models

“Am I ready for love? Or maybe just a best friend? Should there be a difference? Do you have instructions?”

—Turning Out Part 1

“No, you’re not stupid, you’re just special. That’s what all my smart friends say.”

—Ordinaryish People

“The rumpus and ruckus are comfortable now.”

—Bang!

“You say that I’m better. Why don’t I feel better? The universe works in mysterious ways, but I’m starting to think it ain’t workin’ for me.”

—Karma

“I don’t wanna think about my purpose no more, ‘cause I may come up short. Man, I hate being bored.”

—The Entertainment’s Here

“I can be anything that I pretend to be.”

—The Trick

“They tell us to be different, but no one told me I could go too far.”

—Wow, I’m Not Crazy

“You’ve mentioned Adderall. Slip this guy a sedative, he’s bouncin’ off the wall.”

—The Dumb Song

“And we're just children in a world of diversion. Tryna stick it to the man before we're grown. And through that struggle, we made a start. You can do anything you want.”

—Big Idea

“If you break my face. It ain’t my darkest day. My face is just my face. I’m okay.”

—Break My Face

“Yep yep. I’m gonna miss this someday. Yep, Yep, I missed another Friday.” And also “I’ll be there next time. I’ll be there next time.”

—Come Hang Out

“I wish that my brain would triple in size. I’d nail every joke. I’d win every fight. But I’d get too deep with that kind of mind. I don’t wanna know the point of life.”

—Maybe Man

“I wish I was me. Whoever that is. I can just be and not give a shiz. I’ll be whatever makes you a fan, ‘cause I don’t know who the heck I am.”

—Also Maybe Man (there’s actually a lot from this one. Tricky to narrow it down)

And now… the one that makes me sob the hardest.

“Now the finale's done and I'm alone. I'm on a Netflix Trip here on my phone. But who I am is in these episodes, So don't you tell me that it's just a show.” 😭

—Netflix Trip

That’s it for my list so far! If I think of more, I’ll make a follow up post!

“The hieroglyph letter A shirt that I mentioned in comments on the previous post.”

“It’s pretty awesome. I love my discreet ways of wearing my favorite initial without looking so egotistical about it.”

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

“I hate emojis. People put them on their texts all the time and I’m like….WHAT DO YOU MEAN!? Is that supposed to be making fun of me? Or something?”

“I need an instruction manual for emojis, man. But I’d probably never read it.”

“Jeanette sent me THIS! And I have no clue what it means!”

🦄🫠🤐🧘‍♂️✌🏼

“I’m sure SHE’S not making fun of me, but I also don’t have a clue what unicorn, melty face, zipped lips, yoga and a peace sign are supposed to TELL ME!”

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

yeah i AM a little kid with so much doubt. don’t you wanna be there to see how i turn out? don’t you know that i’m still turning out? yeah.

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

“ONLY THREE MORE DAYS UNTIL AJR’S NEW ALBUM!!!”

“I’m practically chewing on the furniture!”

“Dave’s spending the weekend with Dangus at a resort and he keeps texting me to remind me to listen to Miss. Miller and do my chores. I thought we previously established that I am in burnout and will not be doing chores on my holiday weekend so that I can rest and hopefully escape burnout…but…urgh PARENTS, ya know?”

“If I want to spend 90% of my day on YouTube and researching old books I read and falling down rabbit hole after rabbit hole on my summer vacation, then I have EVERY right to do that.”

“People act like me falling in rabbit holes of research is the equivalent of being held hostage by my brain. It’s not being held hostage if you’re GENUINELY enjoying it and having fun!!!”

“Stopping my nonstop brain train and curiosity to go complete a daily schedule that’s “sensible” feels like being held hostage. Just sayin.”

“Anyway, BACK TO AJR! DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THEIR NEW SONG LYRICS ARE “BETTY” OR “DADDY”? I have been trying to decode it for 5 days now and it’s like the whole What Color Is the Dress debate all over again!”

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

Btw the Hoosier wrote “Goodbye Mr. A” about me.

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

“Sick of non-Jeanette therapists telling me that sinking into daydreams and a fantasy world is unhealthy.”

“That I’m SUPPOSED to relish the fact that when I’m stressed it kills my daydreams because it allows me to face my feelings head on.”

“That medication is SUPPOSED to be taking away my maladaptive daydreams and making me live in boring reality 24-7.”

“Yes, now I’m being hounded to try a full time anxiety medication that causes sedation and slows cognition. Can I ditch my family therapist yet?”

“When will therapists learn that not every cut and dry approach works for everyone?”

“Daydreams are literally the healthiest of all the addictive behaviors! And I can speak from experience as I was once playing a videogame nonstop for an entire summer. That’s an addiction. My fantasy world is addiction adjacent! And even if it wasn’t, WHOM THE FRACK CAAAAARES!?”

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

“WHERE CAN I PIRATE THE NEW PHINEAS AND FERB SEASON!?”

“Seriously! WHERE!???”

“I’m going crazy just thinking about it! Curse streaming services for being so expensive!”

“I have a headache again. Maaay have had too much game time. But I am REWARDING myself for finishing the emotional crap heap that was chapter 15.”

“DID YOU HEAR AJR HAS A NEW ALBUM COMING OUT!? It releases this summer!!!”

“I got to walk in the park with Jeanette today and I couldn’t stop infodumping about AJR. Specifically their song Inertia! But also other songs! Turning Out is pretty good too.”

“I’ve been rocking out to Eye To Eye from The Goofy Movie as well. I LOVE MUSIC!!!”

“This was all over the place, but my brain feels organized better now.”

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

People: You’ve gotten into lock picking? That’s a pretty sus “hobby” to have. What do you plan to use that for?

Me, a person with severe ADHD: Unlock all the stuff I’ve lost the keys to :(

[alvinmichaelmurphyseville]

WE HAVE GOT CHAPTER 15 DONE!!!

Alvin has been fighting so much executive dysfunction to bring you this one.

And so have I because it has been HOT! Autistic brain no like heat. Heat bad. Humidity worse. It was genuinely tough to breathe.

And we had storms, and I had an anxiety provoking medical appointment that couldn’t even be completed because even on my anxiety meds I was too anxious to allow it.

So yeah. The same ol, up and down! I’m hyper today! So is Alvin!

PLEASE ENJOY THE NEXT EVENTS IN THE 2.0 VERSE!!! I hope you like this one! Much more light hearted hopeful moments than last time!

“THE ESCAPE ROOM WAS SO FUN!!! WE ESCAPED AND HAD 13 MINUTES LEFT OVER!!!”

“I wish I could say more, but my brain’s slowly going offline right now.”

“I SOLVED SO MANY PUZZLES AND UNSCRAMBLED SO MANY WORDS!”
