Looked chaotic, called it culture. Opened 47 concept spaces, closed 48.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Spent the year slightly disappointed in people, deeply in love with itself. Never apologized. Croissants remained reliably good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Said interesting<\/em> 12 million times\u2014never meaning it in a good way. Still charging for everything, especially things that don\u2019t work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Worked non-stop. Proud of it. Burned out slightly but considers it on-brand. Pumpkin spice lattes got more expensive, which feels correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bought another skyscraper\u2014just because it could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
