I think what frustrates me most about entertainment at this juncture is that for all of those who entered live performance at any point in one's life you've come to find that you encounter a major hoop to jump to even get to anything near to success: you have 2b honest w/urself
and it's difficult to do that in any realm of life, and I'm not saying this like I know what a life lived is yet as I'm still here but rather, the only reason you'd ever get into entertainment is because you fundamentally have a disconnect inside you. You can't see yourself.
so many mfs fail because they're not willing to admit this, just admit it. It makes things a lot fucking easier and lets you get through it and come to an answer about things a lot faster. But, to the actual point of this thread
I think what frustrates me most is that now, instead of being a histrionic with a penchant and knack for a particular talent, you can really just flat out buy it due to the playing field being flatter than ever. There's nothing to it. There's absolutely nothing to it.
where do the perpetually personally aggrieved go now to mend together their sense of self? Is that a privilege for the moneyed alone now? Awful, all of it.
Watch me buy 70k spotify listeners, hire a dude with a knack for SEO and a few connects with medium publications and a set of Filipinos who can spam /mu/ for me, and I can give you the next underground darling ready for mid-level debut.
All for less than $12,000, give it eight months. Done.
Someone actually worth their fuckin salt could do it for 6k probably.
