There’s a quiet strength in remembering our original purpose for being here. We weren’t meant to circle the same injuries, replay the same narratives, or cling to survival habits disguised as safety. The past isn’t our masterpiece to perfect.
"Kid Rock testified before Congress and slammed ticketing industry for unfair practices: "Full of greedy snakes and scoundrels."
“Unlike most of my peers, I am beholden to no one — no record companies, no managers, no corporate endorsements or deals. To put it plainly, I ain’t scared to speak out on these issues like many artists, managers and agents are for fear of biting the hand that feeds them... this industry is full of greedy snakes and scoundrels. Too many suits lining their pockets over talent they never had and fans they mislead. The truth is, much of this could have been or still could be solved through technology, especially proof of humanity tools. It hasn’t happened yet because there’s just too much money in the secondary ticket market. Ticketing companies didn’t fail to stop this; seems they chose not to.”

Matt Damon says Netflix wants movies to restate "the plot three or four times in the dialogue" to account for viewers being on their phones:
“The standard way to make an action movie that we learned was, you usually have three set pieces. One in the first act, one in the second, one in the third,” Damon explained. “You spend most of your money on that one in the third act. That’s your finale. And now they’re like, ‘Can we get a big one in the first five minutes? We want people to stay. And it wouldn’t be terrible if you reiterated the plot three or four times in the dialogue because people are on their phones while they’re watching.’”
