I heard about the gay beach the way I hear about all the good gay things: Through a lover, an ex-lover, my ex-lover’s new love. A warm mouth pressed against my ear on the dance floor, a dropped pin, an Instagram D.M. The murmurs were about a queer nude beach nestled along the coast of Oaxaca. It took a full day and a half to get there, flying first into Mexico City and then catching a shorter flight toward the Pacific. When I landed, I got into a taxi with a few other folks heading to the beach. The driver looked at me sideways. “Esta es tu primera vez?” “Sí,” I replied. “Por qué Zipolite?” I hadn’t quite figured that part out yet, not enough to explain it. I shrugged. He shook his head and drove with his knees so he could use both hands to pantomime hordes of tourists attacking the dry countryside. Behind his miming, the windshield of the car was cracked in … [Read more...] about Want to Love Your Body? Try Swimming Naked.

Meet the ‘Chopped’ champion chef trying to throw a weed event in Napa Valley
Putting a heady twist on the age-old wisdom that you should always “eat your greens,” Bay Area chef Solomon Johnson is bringing marijuana to high-end cuisine. All of the courses at his new Cannescape event series are infused with cannabis. The Bay Area's first winner of "Chopped 420," a "Chopped" spinoff from Discovery+, Johnson cooks up food that is both delicious and pleasantly stoning — I attended the first Cannescape event at the Phoenix Hotel in San Francisco last month. The multiday events include a five-course dinner infused with cannabis, as well as an overnight stay at a premier Northern California hotel. Dr. Wilkinson’s Backyard Resort & Mineral Springs in Napa Valley is scheduled to host the next event April 20 , otherwise known as 4/20 — fitting for the "Chopped 420" champion. However, these blissed-out banquets may have already landed Johnson in some hot water. The San Francisco Department of Public Health has warned the Phoenix that the pot-infused dinner I … [Read more...] about Meet the ‘Chopped’ champion chef trying to throw a weed event in Napa Valley

The 37-year-old at the heart of the artificial intelligence boom is a little scared, and he wants us to know it. OpenAI CEO and ChatGPT creator Sam Altman granted a lengthy one-on-one interview to ABC News , released last week during its evening news show, in which he discussed the future of his company’s AI tech in lofty terms — “this will be the greatest technology humanity has yet developed” — while emphasizing society’s need to adapt or otherwise ready itself for terrible outcomes. As he praised his company’s product-by-product rollout of chatbot platforms, he said he hopes his firm can make mistakes while the stakes are low and said “people should be happy that we’re a little bit scared of this.” “You’re a little bit scared?” ABC News’ Rebecca Jarvis prodded. “You personally?” “A little bit, yeah, of course,” Altman replied, hitting a key point in his apparent campaign to win the trust of the American public. “I think if I said I were not, you should either not … [Read more...] about OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says he, too, is ‘a little bit scared’ of ChatGPT
