been trying to make a conscious effort to direct my negative energy into art rather than doomscrolling or putting it out into the world in less meaningful and productive ways
i don't always succeed but the thought is there

I'm not sure what your essays or other assignments are about (and maybe they're just highkey boring idk). But for me (I also have severe executive dysfunction) I have to EXTREMELY care about whatever I'm writing/creating to even find an inkling of motivation. So I seek out cool shit to read, watch, listen to, or look at to motivate me to tell a story/make art/yada yada. (this is different from doomscrolling I swear). Seeing other people make cool stuff makes me want to make cool stuff!! Maybe this is where parallel play can be helpful too.
OR I get pissed off about something I care about. It's honestly about generating energy. I watched Drew Gooden's video about AI art and it got me so pissed off I finished a project I was procrastinating.
or also also. do some other activity/chore u on your to do list to get u into the ~grindset~
im sorry if this wasn't very helpful lol

Even if my writing is non-coherent words and my drawing is just an angry scribble, I feel like I’ve expressed the essence of my anger in a private way. I even write the thing that triggers my anger on paper that I compress into a ball and yeet into the bin for extra measure

I need to write. Sit down and write. AHH TOO STRESSFUL. So instead I’ll make a song or dumb graphic design or a craft.
You ( 🧠) will never see it as good and worthwhile because you are, in fact, procrastinating your real work and passion BUT everybody else will think “wow, they are just always making something” it’s a win win

for one, they're horribly corrupt and their billionaire CEO is a POS. this is not the focus of my rant, though; my bigger beef is this: he owns one of the biggest music companies in the world and doesn't even care about audio quality! the absolute BEST quality you can get on spotify is a LOSSY MP3 EQUIVALENT and is the same as the LOWEST quality apple offers. Listening to music in lossless on apple compared to spotify's "high resolution" is like night and day.
i get people enjoy it for the social aspects but apple has all that too. okay sure you won't know if you're a top .0001% listener of jimmy buttfuck but jesus christ do we need to stat farm this hard
i hope spotify dies i will see to it
rant over tl;dr spotify sucks and literally anything is a better option if you remotely care about listening to music
