Hello, I've seen your... calling out for help post.

I am not sure if it is relevant right now in your life, and if me bringing it up triggers you, please ignore this.

I am not sending this out of pity, I genuinely want to help. I have been in a similar position before, and I know everything might seem like it's hopeless.

I am not the best at encouragement since I'm quite narcissistic, but I'm trying to get better at that and want to help you too.

Okay here goes

The fact that you made that post is a very brave thing to do. Even acknowledging your struggles, furthermore asking and reaching for help takes a lot of courage.

Here are some ways that might help.

Try making art. I know it's pretty clique and sounds pretty stupid, but it has worked for me. Every spare minute you have, try grabbing a random paper and fold a boat, or draw a boat, or maybe something else. Making small distractions for yourself to take your mind off of the hard stuff could help.

Try taking a walk. If you don't have time to go outside or energy to do something like that, it's fine too. Just try and get your body moving as much as possible, it's silly but It might help.

And finally, if you think everyone is just putting up with your annoying self and that no one is there... I care.

I'm a stranger and probably hard to believe right now, but I really, genuinely care for you.

Please don't lose hope. If you are reading this, thank you for staying. Thank you so, so much.

This is more of a message, than a ask... so you don't have to reply of course. Again, please know that at least somewhere in the world, someone cares deeply about you.

I love you! ❤

Hey! I really didn't think I would get someone who was actually willing to help. Even though I made that post a few years ago now, most of it still applies.

I want to say, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. Thank you for being so kind, and actually reaching out to help me. You don't know how much this means to me, even now, because it is heartwarming and young me would have absolutely felt better. I feel better right now, to be honest.

While I already make art to help cope I could really start taking walks hah. I appreciate the kind words and the helpful advice.

Thank you for being here for me, even now.

If you need context, earlier this year, CorridorDigital put out an "AI-made anime," where an AI filter was used to convert live action footage into "animation" (for the record, this is NOT animation. Animation is not a look, it's a process. By this logic, anyone using that Pixar Snapchat face filter is a Pixar animator). They touted themselves as "revolutionizing animation."

They were met with considerable backlash and criticism from the animation community. For one, they were taking frames from the real anime Vampire Hunter D to feed the AI. For another, the video was essentially a proof-of-concept for how "easy" and "inexpensive" it is to reduce animation to an automate-able process.

Well, Corridor did not learn anything, because they released a sequel... In the middle of a strike against the use of AI to replace/exploit/profit off of the labor of workers in the film industry. Corridor assured they hired their own artist to train the AI, but remember that industry discourse like this is interconnected. They may not be stealing art, but any studio that sees this and goes 'wow, it's that easy' will. Corridor's also boasting about AI democratizing animation-making. Now anyone can make animation in their bedroom with nothing but a camera and a free software! Except, anyone could already make animation in their bedroom with nothing but a camera and a free software. I made animation in my bedroom with nothing but a camera and a free stop-motion software when I was 10 years old.

Anyways, work like this is exactly what studios hellbent on exploiting workers want to see. It doesn't matter if it's cool or fun. Remember that AI discourse is currently the frontlines of the labor crisis in the film industry. Corridor putting out this video as "fun education" in the middle of an strike is so incredibly irresponsible and disrespectful.

My previous reblog of this was so fucking funny cause I said this in the tags

with such utter conviction that this was some wild fan thing I'd stumbled across on the mid noughties internet and like

Nah dog they put this shit on television! It's in the actual episode!

I made this a long time ago but for some reason never posted! It is my quick guide to protecting yourself against burnout as a person with ADHD and ASD.

Of course it is all about meeting your support needs at the end of the day, which are completely individual and may vary over time, but this could function as a guide if you have a hard time figuring out where to start! 🫶🏻 💙💙💙
