News to Remember
@allchronologyOct 15
Not even Black Mirror could predict this level of dystopia. A man found out his job interviewer was AI, so he let his own AI take over and walked away, leaving both AIs stuck in an endless goodbye loop.

This video is a staged comedic experiment by YouTuber Graham Dot Zip, not footage from a real company job interview. youtube.com/watch?v=A0fECn… theregister.com/offbeat/2026/1… aistify.com/ai-job-intervi… mezha.ua/en/news/ai-job…

The people in this thread commenting things like "why waste your time doing this when ai can do it for you" truly do not understand the point of life.

The stop-motion animation work behind LAIKA’s WILDWOOD (2026) is absolutely insane. 136 handcrafted sets, over 200 practical puppets and 49 animators working across 231 weeks, with some shots producing just 1–4 seconds of animation per week. @LAIKAStudios #Wildwood, #LAIKA_partner

What’s crazy to me is that ADHD can cause such severe emotional dysregulation that, in a single day, someone can experience intense highs, crashes, irritability, impulsivity, rejection sensitivity, racing thoughts, and emotional overwhelm that can resemble symptoms seen in bipolar disorder or borderline personality disorder yet ADHD is still treated like it’s just being distracted or forgetting your keys.

Part of the neurodivergent experience is going through cycles of hating yourself for being different than everyone but then loving yourself for the mere fact that you're different from everyone.

"This industry owes you nothing!" But what if it actually does... I can say wholeheartedly Elevenfilm and Channel 4 owe me a recognised TV credit... After I was deceived into taking part in Nightmares where I received no credit, no showreel material, no compensation for my time

Someone: *treats me badly* Autistic me: No worries! It’s all good! Autistic me to myself in the future: Woah, that was not ok. I can’t believe I let them get away with that. My delayed processing! Is it too late, inconsistent and/or odd to take back my “no worries”?

What happened to me is bigger than one artist or one stage. When the billionaire class can decide which voices are allowed on stage and which ones are too dangerous to hear, everyone should be paying attention. So we're going on tour. All proceeds will benefit organizations supporting the Palestinian people and movement. Sign up at macklemore.com

Millions of people with autism and ADHD get through life every day without trouble because they understand they have a deficiency and decided to adapt to it instead of letting it define them. But self diagnosed internet addicts tell themselves there's nothing they can do-

As an autistic person, the biggest lie I ever believed was "If you need something, don't hesitate to ask." You're not supposed to ask, apparently.

Stay away from the people who trusted your abuser’s narrative about you without even bothering to ask you directly. They weren’t looking for the truth.

One of the most abusive things the sociopath or malignant narcissist will do is to play the victim role while making the actual victim look like the perpetrator of the abuse. It’s a double attack. This is a form of “Crazy making” performed by the sickest and most toxic people.

Sometimes you're angry because you're grieving. Sometimes you're angry because you're hurt. And sometimes you're angry because you're absolutely fucking exhausted from having to deal with the same shit over and over again.

Every neurodivergent person knows that if you have an appointment at 3:00 PM, the day is over at breakfast. You cannot start anything. You cannot relax. You just orbit the appointment like a haunted little moon.

Not everyone cares about being a good person; they only care about being seen as a good person. Always pay closer attention to someone's character and how they act when it's going to cost them something. That exposes more truth than their image ever can.

I used to believe that if I treated people with kindness, they'd return it. But life taught me otherwise. People will be who they are, believe what they want, and act however they choose regardless of how it affects you. At the end of the day, actions speak loudest, and words often mean the least.
