Other Life

I'm joined by the half-wolf, half-kitten girl who appeared in a recent viral video. This video took her from 47 Twitter followers to about 18,000 and so she's gone to LA. She told me that when she had a baby, she decided to go all-in on being a full-time crazy person on the internet. She explains her life philosophy of not planning anything, not worrying, and relying on the kindness of strangers. This podcast had some good laughs but also a surprising number of quite human moments, I thought. See her viral video on her Twitter account @gaywithyourdad. Other Life will soon have its first live show. On February 28, I'll be doing a live podcast show in Los Angeles. If you're in the area, buy a ticket here ($15). From that night until the morning of Sunday March 1, I will also be hosting internet friends in a Based Mansion lol. If you're interested, request a spot here. There are a few price points for any income level.

Big thanks to all the patrons who help me keep the lights on.

Once a normie record producer, Alexander is now a creative internet madman who commands billionaires to do whatever he wants. In this podcast, he explains how he did it. First, he says, "whore" yourself out to make "f*ck you money." If you're ever afraid of speaking freely, just "get out of there!" Whore yourself another way. Read Deleuze and implement a practical nomadology. Know yourself, know your type, know your role and play it. You shouldn't even know what's taboo and what isn't! People who speak freely on the internet are "of a higher class" today, and people who respect political correctness will be the new proletariat. These were the major points I took him to be making. I really enjoyed this high-energy discussion and gained more than a few new ideas for orienting and improving my own independent intellectual life in 2020 and beyond.

Claire Lehmann is Editor of Quillette. I'm starting to play with a slight shift of focus for some of these podcasts. When I talk with really successful and impactful independent intellectuals, I'm going to focus a bit more on learning how the succeeded: strategies, tactics, things like that. Let me know if you like or dislike this direction.

I first heard about Deanna through Nina Power but I've never been able to find a full account of her story, so I asked her if she would tell it herself. I'm not sure yet but from what I can find she seems like a badass, perhaps too badass for the Art World. She experienced some kind of cancellation but she tells me she is making a comeback, so I'm really excited to meet her and learn more about what happened and what she's up to.
