As for Grenell, his first public comments on programming choices came at CPAC, where archive.is/o/UENaN/http… onstage by Politico
White House correspondent Dasha Burns.
“Well, we want to make art great again,” Grenell said.
“And what does that mean, sir?” Burns asked.
“Look, I, um, I don’t know for sure,” Grenell said.
We recently added two words to our mission:
To provide a more human way to engage with the news…and life.
We added the words “and life” because ultimately we want to engage with more of life, not just the news of the day.
We live in a fascinating time of history. We walk around with addictive supercomputers in our pockets. Ideologies fill …
I’m a huge fan of Gen-AI detoxes.
Seriously, just put all Gen-AI down for a week.
Or 2 weeks. Or a month.
Just let ChatGPT and its ilk sit there. If you use Grammarly, disable it. If you use Google Docs, use the Microsoft Word you have on your computer. (Feeling especially awesome? Disable Spellcheck. Don’t worry. It will be ok.)
Just sit with your own thoughts and own creations.
Then, think seriously about what Gen-AI actually adds to your life, if anything.
You made it, you own it
You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.
As someone who doesn’t see a reason to turn on my Substack paywall, I come at writing from a different perspective than Warner, who seems to have made it into the small club of people who actually make a living as a writer. Will that club still exist next year?

My latest Morningstar article dives into the research showing abnormal growth in earnings is neither persistent nor predictable and the fastest growing industries have not produced the highest returns . Industry is not destiny!
Love definitely holds all the colors, I feel that, I see that, I love that. <3 And your poem is so very relatable, so maybe that is also the point of the fuck! Thank you for sharing your beautiful spectrum.
The topic of parents and parenting is a raw one for me, but poetry heals! So thank you for bringing the prompt. My poem:
My mother said
I love you and I heard
I love the idea of you but not
so much the reality.
I used my poem to heal a bit today as well. I'm also still working on retranslating some of the messages I received in childhood, and this poem is so beautiful, and so full of grace and hope. It helps me find that warm, fragrant, nectared space inside me, too. 🧡 Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, A. I am also in a perpetual process of retranslating, reframing, reclaiming. It can feel so many different things, that process (for me), but I am grateful for the movement. I look forward to reading your poem!
