Trevor McKendrick - I'm announcing my new company tomorrow

Good morning!

I’m excited to let you know that I’m announcing my new company tomorrow at 11:30am PT.

I’ll send you another email tomorrow right at 11:30am PT that explains all the details on what I’m working on & links to the public announcements on Twitter/LinkedIn

It would mean a ton to me if you boosted them on your socials.

Stay tuned!!

A Simple Plan to Solve All of America’s Problems (article)

“We say that we want to save the planet from climate change—but in practice, many Americans are basically dead set against the clean-energy revolution, with even liberal states shutting down zero-carbon nuclear plants and protesting solar-power projects. We say that housing is a human right—but our richest cities have made it excruciatingly difficult to build new houses, infrastructure, or megaprojects. Politicians say that they want better health care—but they tolerate a catastrophically slow-footed FDA‪ that withholds promising tools, and a federal policy that deliberately limits the supply of physicians.”

A proposal for an Abundance Agenda.

And: “We should aim for abundance of comfort, abundance of power, and abundance of time.”

In 1st, US surgeons transplant pig heart into human patient (article)

Incredible!

Imagine being the patient going under, unsure whether you were about to die.

This is what he said: “It was either die or do this transplant. I want to live. I know it’s a shot in the dark, but it’s my last choice,”

Argo (movie)

Won best picture in 2012, had never gotten around to seeing it until this weekend. Was good!

It’s about the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979 and how the CIA was able to get our 6 Americans stuck in the house of the Canadian Ambassador.

”I’m a remote worker. Why should I live in a city? Heck, why should I live in a suburb, or anywhere that has a state income tax?” (short Q&A post)

The answer starts: “You live in a city for culture, for sex, and to marry well. If those don’t apply to you, don’t live in a city.”

Jonah Goldberg on Biden’s recent speech in Georgia (article)

“Okay, I think I’ve been remarkably restrained. So let me speak a bit more freely now. Biden’s speech yesterday, and this whole project, is shameful, dangerous, stupid, and profoundly hypocritical”

Here’s the link to Biden’s speech. Interesting to note the times a line in the speech has to be crossed out to correct what he said.

A Shot to Save the World (book)

Covers how the Covid vaccines were created, going way back to the research done in the 1980s on HIV & AIDS. I’m only 25% through it but enjoying it a lot.

Makes me feel even stronger about creating a culture of celebration, reverence, and high status around creation, invention, building, and risk taking.
