NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵 www.propublica.org/article/trum...

“What is the hole in our culture that therapy fills? And what really happens when we try to re-create that relationship with a machine?” @alex-mar.bsky.social going to sub-Freudian depths with this story about two people and their bots www.wired.com/story/ai-the...

This is one of the best stories we've published in a long time. Come for the most thoughtful, in-depth exploration of AI as therapy you've ever read. Stay because the writing and the storytelling are both sensational. @alex-mar.bsky.social did such tremendous work on this one.

On Wednesday, November 12 at 7 PM, I’ll be in conversation with @alex-mar.bsky.social at Books Are Magic — details and registration at withoutconsent.eventbrite.com (it will also be live-streamed):

Every day, millions confide in AI, exposing their most intimate problems and hoping it will fix them. This is the story of two people—and their bots—on the very edge of therapy’s new frontier. AI as therapist? By @alex-mar.bsky.social

Again, the Secretary of State has no authority to “revoke” green cards.

Looking at some survey data here. Trump/Elon cutting off all cancer cure research is the issue that freaks voters out more than any other, also the one they've heard the least about. Important for voters to hear more about this.

So…BUNNY, my brother’s first film (as creative producer & co-writer), is in competition @sxsw.com in March! It’s kind of a lo-fi “After Hours” meets “Good Time”? Keep an eye on newcomer Mo Stark as the lead. He blew my mind. (And no one paid me to say that…)

If you are anxiously posting about how Elon is hijacking our country and you haven’t called your members of Congress, your Governor, and Dem leadership, to urge them to action, then you too are not acting.

Our new imprint (name TK!) is coming into focus and I’m so glad that FORTUNE will be part of it

Friends, this is my 3rd book—and my debut novel. Cannot wait to share this one. Thrilled to be working with @reaganart.bsky.social at her new imprint at @grandcentralpub.bsky.social / @hachetteus.bsky.social.

Writing is thinking. It’s not a part of the process that can be skipped; it’s the entire point.

"Forgiveness is deeply complex. Should those who want it ask for it? Should those who forgive be celebrated over those who don’t?" —John J. Lennon reviews "Seventy Times Seven: A True Story of Murder and Mercy" by @alex-mar.bsky.social for @nybooks.com www.nybooks.com/articles/202...

Thanks to @nybooks for this substantial, fascinating review, dubbing SEVENTY TIMES SEVEN “commanding” & “a nuanced exploration of justice, forgiveness, & mercy.” The reviewer is incarcerated for homicide & responds to the story’s wrestling w/violence, punishment, & forgiveness from a v personal POV.

Moving and beautifully written. So many people in this country are only a small portion of bad luck away from losing their home. www.esquire.com/news-politic...

A lot of politics & books & art…but for now, here’s my border collie, Strummer.
