Ben Affleck up close and personal in the NY Times, and very honest about his alcoholism...

...and his divorce, and his weight gain, and his shame.

He's not educated. You are just making shit up. You liar. He went to college for 2 months. He's repulsive. He ate out a stripper's pussy on a bar counter in front of the entire club.

45% addicts and/or alcoholics

30% Genuinely sober and in recovery

20% claiming to be sober and in recovery, but aren’t

2%. complete normies who genuinely have never encountered addiction issues,

3% those who are masters at hiding their addiction issues, and you would never, ever guess they have a problem, EVER.

How hard was it to think about it, then quickly say something like "Wow. My family has really come full circle." when hat stupid "Know Your Roots" fiasco happened?

It also revealed Henty Louis Gates as being a shallow, phony star-fucker because he was cowed by Affleck into editing out that Affleck is descended from slave holders, even though it ended on positive note because his mother was active in the Civil Rights movement.

That whole thing was so revealing of both of them.

Too bad because I too think Affleck is a good actor. I'm one of the few who enjoyed "Hollywoodland" and though it deserved more attention and acclaim.
