What a way to frame the state of the industry. Out of touch with reality. Privileged.

Anselmo, that’s because only .06% cares. Especially given what else goes on in the world right now.
I have nothing against people who win or enter work. I actually LOVE working to solve creative problems. But this circle jerk fest, is just seen by most of us as a self congratulatory pompous douche bash that we are all sort of obligated to pretend we like. We just keep up with it and enter work because it has the potential to help our careers some. And even that potential is diminishing and shorter lasting as the years go by.
Most of us are far more concerned about still having jobs that pay enough to feed our families, hopefully without losing our souls in the process. Most of us are far more concerned about the state he world is in, about being replaced by AI, about our kids’ futures, our mortgage or rent, about dying of a heart attack in our 40s. So yeah, that would be about 99.94% of us. Because even a lot of the people who worked on the pieces celebrated at Cannes, don’t even get to make it there to pick up their awards.
Gosh, you need to get rid of that black cloud hanging over you - its not healthy to worry so much about "most of us" life is for living not worrying about dying or starving (unless you are dying or starving which i suspect not many on fishbowl are)
Another gem 💎

And creatives almost never get the leaders they deserve. But who gives a shit about that, right? 🤷🏻♂️
I’d say more like you lost..a week of your life to fluffery.

One might argue if you're NOT there you've won.
