Everyone at Tesla receives stock. My comp is all stock/options, which I do not take off the table. That’s what you’re missing.

We did something different for this year's big year-end wine feature. I chose 12 bottles that each individually tells a story about 2020 - stories like wildfires, social justice, sommelier scandals, even the "clean wine" debacle. Also they're delicious. sfchronicle.com/projects/gui…

Joe Biden spent the final moments of the debate urging Americans to vote. Donald Trump spent the final moments of the debate trying to suppress and discount those votes. Vote like our democracy depends on it—because it does.

I am humbled and overwhelmed by the love I was shown last night in regards to my Instagram Live on racism in the wine industry. I have more messages than I can count, more texts than I have the bandwidth to read, and additional funds to support the work.… instagr.am/p/CA_bL6fpMtn/
