Jesse, this rocks. I don’t have words other than to describe the violent dang nodding I’m doing right now! Per your penultimate line of the essay regarding like-minded people sick of this shit to perhaps get in-touch; count me in, my dude! My little version is that I’ve been trying to “work” in film for a decade now, and yet… can’t bare the hyper-commercialization of it all and the stupidity of most of the output and also can’t seem to stop having an existential crisis thinking about the ecological impact that film tech needs to function and be produced?😅 Such an annoying little bind to be in. Lord help me. Anyways— keep up the good work and the good art. Yours is easily one of the clearest-eyed and soul-nourishing substacks I ever read💚
