o the end in a long time because it never got boring. And I kept waiting. Pretty much everything I read I skim. Pretty much everything, right? But I didn't skim it because it was so well written. So kudos to the writer. So it's just good writing, right? So if you want to just see good writing, read it for that because it's so rare. And just tell yourself how long you stayed with the article without bailing out. I'll give the name of the writer. It was Shane Cashman, who apparently is or was a professor at some point. So it's somebody who's got some good communication skills. Yes, he was raised culturally Jewish I think. I think his mother was Jewish, he says, which I think technically makes you Jewish. I don't think he's like an observing type.

All right. So here are some of the things that came out of that that I thought were interesting. Number one, Ye does not appear crazy at all. So somebody spent some good time with him when he was not performing. Because when he's on an interview he's performing, right? But when you see him completely outside the public domain you get to see if he's crazy. And there wasn't any. So he spent enough time with him to find out if any crazy was coming out of him and there wasn't. That actually Ye's sort of approach does have an internal logic to it and you could love it or hate it but it's not crazy. It's not crazy. Now it takes some explaining how that's not crazy.

But there's one part that I just loved. Ye is completely aware that his communication director Fuentes is the most disliked person by one of the most disliked persons on the internet who you wouldn't even want to interact with. Right? Now that's not my opinion. That would be sort of like an internet opinion of him, which I'm sure he'd agree with. Now Ye describes himself as one of the most popular people in the world and certainly somebody that the most people would want to talk to. All right, the most people would want to get to Ye. So Ye has made it so that to talk to the most interesting person that you do want to talk to, Ye, you have to go through the worst person in the world to get there. And he did that intentionally. Now how much do you love that? Right? Forget about what you think about Fuentes for a moment. Just think about the system. Just think about the fact that he did that intentionally. Now you tell me that's not art. That's art, right? That is art. Everything he does is sometimes functional, often functional because he's successful. But while he's being functional it's never not art. It's still art. Like that's who he is. It just follows him. Like everything he touches becomes art.

So that's interesting. And then Fuentes I think gave some more information about why he and Ye could get together in the first place. Have you ever wondered about that? Even if you accept that Ye is eclectic and eccentric or crazy or whatever you want to say. So you could make an excuse. You could kind of understand how Ye would want to work with anybody basically because he does refer to them as his little rogue group of outcasts or something. But why would Fuentes want t
