“Systematically building electronics laboratory.”

That’s so much nicer than saying I’m constantly trying and failing at my hobbies as I realize how little I know and how ill prepared I am for my ambitions.

Same here with "likely prefers specialized tools for specific tasks" rather than "hyperfocuses on a new hobby every month and convinces themselves to buy the pro tool 9000 because they will absolutely not leave it collecting dust this time"

That’s me

Yeah I was going to say. My AuDHD has my profile looking like I’m the most interesting person on earth. They don’t know that I’m just always planning to take up hobbies, and not really diving in fully on any of them. Always planning, never doing :(

I have a friend that is always trying to convince me to join the local makerspace, but they don’t understand that means I would then also have to leave my house and look like an idiot in front of strangers.

It would probably save me a lot of money, but… Now I own a desktop CNC. It’s still in the box, but I own one!
