I do not have a sub or a free access link with which to read the New Yorker article on whether Sam Altman is a habitual liar. But I can say this.

I was raised by a man who’d lie constantly. He’d promise me anything and everything, and there was always some last-second off-screen emergency that prevented it from being fulfilled. When I questioned why we were always broke if he made so much money, he assured me I just didn’t understand yet how expensive life really is; as an adult with less income and more mortgage who’s nonetheless in the black, I know it literally doesn’t add up.

Sam Altman triggers my instinctive disgust reflex. Every photo, every video, every voice clip fills me with an urge to either scream at him or get the fuck away. I don’t know this man. But I know his damage.
