Because I'd forgotten: If you're using Linux and PulseAudio, you can use your laptop to pipe "outside" sounds through your headphones while you're listening to music, and control the volume of it to reduce stimuli while not shutting it all out.
Literally doing that right now in the ER waiting room, and it's saving my sanity.
@StevenSaus@actuallyautistic@actuallyaudhd I use the same technique to pipe my laptop audio through my PC so that I can use one set of headphones. Works well, if sometimes a bit fiddly.
