This is AuDHD in Action!!
I'm moving house Friday, in two days, and I decide to create a song. WTF? That's AuDHD!! Read to find out more...
This is AuDHD in Action!!
🎧 Unmute For The Full CJB Experience TODAY!
I just cannot stop myself creating...
What is going on today?
Everything.
As always.
If you don't follow me on social media – why bloody not? 😁
If you do – you will know I'm moving to Stoke in a few days. I will be tearing my soul out of Wales (it is literally glued to the grass here!).
So far in the last few days, I have collapsed with exhaustion. Got migraines that I never get. Watched the tree I love be killed... and that is just the beginning.
Life is full on NUTS🥜🥜 – do forgive me if my flavor joins it for a short while until I can settle in my new home.
Today I am meant to be packing boxes.
So what does my AuDHD brain decide to do?
Make social media videos. And of course, write a poem, which then has to turn into a song!
What makes this AuDHD? I know I should be packing but I cannot stop myself being pulled into another direction. Literally cannot stop it.
This is my soul act to stop it. Writing this blog post at the speed of light ✨
When this is published I can get back to boxing up things that I never use (that's a blog for another day – I am going to be getting rid of a lot of stuff in the near future).
X Behaves Like One
Let me tell you what’s revealing
about an X.
It used to be Twitter —
an era when people would text.
I can’t seem to shake
what’s happening here:
my follower counts
crashing,
X algos in fear.
It fears that someone
wants to spread something real —
to explain love’s vital.
Yes, it’s the real deal.
No crypto,
no fake crap,
nothing here but
my cap —
and under it,
me.
That’s right.
CJB.
Well those words were how this started. A poem for the #vss365 community whose prompt word is #revealing today.
All well and good but then I noticed my X follower count has dropped a few thousand in a day.
I've been noticing it dropping a bit but that's a steep drop.
And what is so shocking to the system is this week I have been posting more than ever, and some real emotional stuff about how tough life's been.
It seems X algos are more interested (and in fairness the other social networks are similar) in getting ad revenue from feisty fear and hate mongering posts. Post an AI shark eating a cow and you are in. Start an argument about Trump – yes you have won the jackpot.
But tell people sincerely that you are suffering but still finding love helps. Explain that loving everything today isn't easy but it works when you know how.
And boy oh boy that's it – block that account from people.
Well, today I had to hit back the CJB way.
I created a poem that turned into a song which created new images... and here I am adding an unplanned blog post to contain the full unofficial song:
X Behaves Like One: Lyrics 👇
Yeah… let me tell you somethin’.
Let me tell you what’s revealing about an X,
It used to be Twitter — back when people would text.
I can’t seem to shake what’s happening here,
My follower counts crashing, X algo’s in fear.
It fears that someone wants to spread something real,
To explain love’s vital — yeah, it’s the real deal.
No crypto, no fake crap, nothing here but my cap,
And under it, me — straight facts, no cap.
It’s dodgin’ truth, it’s on the run,
Tryna hide from what I’ve done…
X behaves like one,
Actin’ like it’s on the run.
Tryna shut me down but I’m never done —
CJB in the place and I’m second to none.
X behaves like one,
But I rise like the morning sun.
Droppin’ real talk till the battle’s won —
Yeah, X behaves like one.
That’s right, I’m here, no gimmicks, no scheme,
Just a mind on a mission and a message that’s clean.
Algorithms panic when the truth breaks free,
But I’m still standin’ tall — yeah, CJB.
No filters, no noise, no digital disguise —
Just a voice in the static that refuses to die.
CJB.
Real.
Still here.
Fade out…
I hope you like the song. As usual this rant isn't really just about me. It is about others, like you, us. I bet you have the same issues with X and other social networks. You put your heart out there and it gets met with silence.
Well I love you. Even if you don't see my comments, I love you. I love what you do. I love everything about you today.
Keep growing in your own soulful way. And hopefully our paths will keep intertwining.
Soulfully,
CJB today xoxo
PS. If you can – and you want to show me some love – wish me luck with my move, drop a comment below or on social. I'll be waiting like Bella (my dog) waits me eat a roast dinner (yes lots of saliva – hey I am weird like that – wet kisses though! 😽).
