Not exactly a Creative problem, but is anybody having trouble focusing when WW3 may happen soon? I'm old, so I lived through the Day After red scare. But I know people now who think a little nuclear winter would get rid of "undesirables" and are fine with it, even our president.

There really is two incredible parallel timelines happening right now:

Bombs, destruction and war non-stop in one, sweaty Rosé-drinking trophy holders non-stop in the other.

I thought the very obvious shift in a year from every Lion winner being focused on climate solutions, to being clever with AI instead and ignoring the climate was the industry being cynical, but Cannes posting is taking things to another level at the moment.
