just now reading the Time interview and wow, Trump really said that?

Your pick to lead the Federal Reserve, Kevin Warsh-he just oversaw a unanimous vote to raise interest rates. Obviously, you've been very much opposed to raising rates. You want lower rates—

I don't wanna take my time going to work, I got a motorcycle and a sleeping bag and ten or fifteen girls. What the hell I wanna go off and go to work for? Work for what? Money? I got all the money in the world. I'm the king, man. I run the underworld, guy. I decide who does what nd where they do it at. What am I gonna run around like some teeny bopper somewhere for omeone elses money? I make the money man, I roll the nickels. The game is mine. I deal the cards"

lmao Trump couldn't even make it two questions into his Time interview before leaning on Natalie Harp for help

Well, look, you know, this isn't like I'm building a building, which I can do out of my back pocket. It's easier to do that for me, and it's what I've been doing. This is a whole new world, probably mostly good, but some bad too. And it's a very powerful world. It's a very—potentially really could be good for medical. I mean, some of the things they're coming up with now that they never even thought about. But with good comes bad, and we want them, we want all of them to behave for themselves. Tomorrow's meeting. What time is that meeting tomorrow? Two?

Natalie Harp: Noon, in the East Room.

Do the men in the group chat like each other, I wonder-these men expressing such unmistakable, unrestrained glee as they stain their souls forever and ruin their classmate's life. I can't decide whether they're more odious if the answer is yes or if it's no, but I can't dismiss the question as unimportant, either. These fraternities that the public rarely hears about, except when their members kill or rape: do they foster the bonds of friendship or just cheaply mimic them? When some ex-frat boy needs a lawyer or an introduction to a senator later in his life, when that boy digs through the network of other boys for a hookup, what is the nature of the bond he's leaning on? I want to diagnose it. I'm the naive fool who believes that in diagnosing it, I can cure us all of it.

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

i've seen a lot of ridiculous PR emails in my career so believe me when i say: this is, without doubt, one of the most unhinged pitches i've ever received

Hi Andrew,

Call it the Nine Perfect Strangers effect. Wellness travel is getting stranger, more sensory, more seductive and a lot more interesting. The people booking these trips aren't necessarily coming to “heal.” They're founders, creatives, skeptics, couples, solo travelers, people between chapters and people who have already done the spa, the silent retreat, the cold plunge and every longevity and optimization protocol and are asking a much better question: What haven't I tried yet?

That's why I want to put The Vessyl in front of you. Set across 118 acres of rainforest beneath Costa Rica's Arenal Volcano, The Vessyl is an intimate property where nature, adventure, sound, ancient systems of self-understanding and emerging technology are allowed to exist in the same world. Think Nine Perfect Strangers meets The White Lotus, except nobody is secretly dosing your smoothie or throwing you overboard. And we'd love to host you. I would be happy to send you a sample itinerary of the trip as well.
I have two press trips that I am booking currently:
