I made a stripped back, emo, voyeuristic show with my favorite writer that has received some deeply felt personal responses of all kinds—and we got to premiere it with the amazing audio fiction creators last night @TribecaAudio! Felt v downtown Cinderella at midnight vibes tbh✨

new @NewYorker column, on the rise of hyperlocal neighborhood email newsletters, solo shoe-leather operations telling you what's going on on your block. In Brooklyn alone there's the Carroll Gardens Times, the Court Street Journal, the Grand Army Gazette, the Boerum Bulletin...

It's genuinely funny that Goodreads, a legendarily ugly and difficult site to use, got a new logo after like 15 years and... nothing else

BTS is so important for government because it moves so slowly and people need see that you’re working while they wait to feel it.

New Strokes music...I know they really don't enjoy it. But I enjoy it. And isn't that enough?

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Someone can certainly *make* a billion dollars. That’s not the same thing as earning. Growing fast and disrupting markets also often means chasing and wielding market power, political influence, and scale. Take Airbnb. They heavily lobby politicians against passing housing laws to protect working class residents because it’s bad for their business model. Airbnb could not exist at its current scale and size without the housing market destabilizations, displacements, and exploits that are supercharging the evictions of working people everywhere from Puerto Rico to Jackson Hole. Now young people are planning for a future where they will never be able to afford to own a home while others have 20 and live off renting it out to them at extortionate rates with zero protections. Yes, a tiny amount of people can make billions of dollars doing that. And millions of everyday Americans are bearing the cost.

Sure you can earn a billion dollars. I've been teaching people how to do it for 20 years. The way you do it is to start a company that grows fast. You don't have to do anything bad to make a company grow fast. You just have to make something people want. paulgraham.com/ace.html

Who do I talk to about starting a campaign to get Rob Harvilla a Pulitzer Prize for criticism and his work on 60 Songs?

Anna Wintour becoming the face of the The Devil Wears Prada franchise, which only exists because she sucks, is ........quite the coup. It's like if Trump filmed a commercial for "No King's Day"

I’m truly puzzled. In the last week, at two unrelated comedy shows in different cities, I saw two comedians make the “what am I, a child bride?” joke from Broad City. I don’t think they’re both plagiarizing the show and can’t possibly be copying each other. any theories?

Jimmy Kimmel lost all the goodwill he earned this year by making fun of the enthusiastic documentary people in the balcony. Sorry!!
