Lauren Duca is award-winning and-losing writer who is best known for publishing “Donald Trump is Gaslighting America” to Teen Vogue and subsequently making Tucker Carlson look like he was going to poop himself on Fox News. After a hellish experience of virality and cancelation, she pursued the only next viable career path, which was running off to the mountains to join a cult. Her insane quest for happiness involves such extreme substances as the “God” molecule, ayahuasca, and learning how to make peace with her mother. She has since translated her story of missing the point into an upcoming book and solo comedy show, Asshole in Retreat: An Psychedelic Journey to “God,” as well as a developing piece of queer, comedic performance art titled, Proof of Aliens. In order to support the project of finding herself and trying to be funny about it, Lauren has spent the past five years ghostwriting, and welcomes new clients who are passionate about their work and/or hate using AI. Her most recent writing and upcoming performances will be shared here on Pancake Brain, a weekend newsletter dedicated to pop culture, politics, and the psychedelic experience.
