Something i didn't have time to say is: the standard liberal neurodiversity response of *actually theyre underdiagnosed, the increase is just us getting better at recognising neurodivergence, etc.* is a dead end here as it precisely depoliticises the issue and reifies and essentialises diagnosis.

"...these diagnoses are increasingly used by students & workers for organising to push back against oppressive systems & institutions of exploitation. The backlash against the expansion of these diagnoses is thus, in significant part, a ruling class backlash against a demand for change..."

like i have been saying, if you have ADHD you should be standing with trans people on their medical rights for basic moral and solidarity reasons but also the practical reason that you can fight at their barricade or you can fight at ours but it's the same fight

Last call for participants for this survey! I will be closing on the 31st Oct! If you have ADHD (self ID valid) and perform music I want to hear from you! If not, sharing the link would still help me out! (Thank you to all who have replied so far!) birminghamcoaal.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Call for participants! I am doing a research about how ADHD affects the experience of performing music. I am therefore looking for ADHD musicians to fill in a survey about their experiences of performing. Please take part or share if you can! birminghamcoaal.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
