This week, we are pleased to be joined by Taylor Lorenz. Taylor covers technology and social media for the Washington Post. She is the author of Extremely Online: The Untold Story of Fame, Influence and Power on the Internet, and she hosts a new podcast, Power User. Before our vibe check with Taylor on the TikTok legislation, how social media shapes the vibes of politics, and all things online - we dive into Trump’s “new” statement on his position on abortion, and the RFK Jr. staffer who said the quiet part out loud.
Stick around after our chat with Taylor for an IT’S GIVING, our GROUP CHAT, and a good vibe on student debt.
