Ben Affleck took to his Facebook page Tuesday afternoon to share that he had been in rehab.

The actor said he'd completed treatment for alcohol addiction, which was the "first of many steps being taken towards a positive recovery."

He mentioned his family and three kids several times in the short statement and talked about his estranged wife, Jennifer Garner, as his "co-parent." The 44-year-old said Garner has "supported me and cared for our kids as I've done the work I set out to do."

The star and producer in the upcoming The Batman movie noted that he's dealt with addiction in the past and that it's an issue he "will continue to confront." He also went to rehab in 2001 for alcohol abuse.  Read more...

      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
