    oh gods no, you know what came with my perfect pitch? a little man screaming EEEE constantly at E12 in my ear, so i can tune off of his E. that bastard.

      Wait, your tinnitus stays still? Mine is basically a symphony made for people whose favorite music is hearing tests.

        yeah it’s weird. i haven’t had it looked at ever. i had a cold, played a gig where i had to set up directly in front of the drums instead of a few feet off to the side. got a migraine. next day, there was a tiny squeal up there. day after a little louder. it varies in intensity but it’s always there. same pitch. i measured it once and it’s an E12. I can tell when a recording is sped up or slowed down and the pitch hasn’t been corrected - the pitch just sounds wrong, because of that damn E12 i’ve got that no one else does.

        because of that, i’ve got keys i enjoy playing in and keys i hate, just because the key resonates in my sinuses (in a different tone) well
