    "And so I messaged seeking plum or Christina that are you willing to experiment with me where we ask each other weird questions or where I ask her weird questions? But I know she can play the game right back at me because she's so creative. I love the way she thinks. So the first question for you, Christina, is, and I already told you this question on the chat, which is, if you are a cat, what is the first thing you would paw away?"

    "And the second thing I enjoyed is also related to it, which is finding the diamond in the coal mine, which is to say that we have this giant list of spectacular things we are doing and every single day, and then from it, you are looking for that one moment, that one emotional truth. You want to expand into a story, fictional or otherwise. It's brilliant. It is such good writing exercise, in my opinion."

    "I would say in using certain plot lines and in using certain characters in there, I was taking tiny little things and making them grandiose. And this book is absolutely not about that. This book actually has grandiose tragedies. You have a decorated mathematics professor losing his memory. His memory lasts just for 80 minutes. You have a single mother who is largely cut off from society because she is working so hard to survive for her child and to ensure that her child has better odds in life than she did."

    "Let me tell you what life is like without functioning Internet connection. Hello, Swell. Since February, Vinity has not had super strong, super fast Internet connections and she is completely relying on hot spots that are coming from her phone. I have an Air TL 4G connection, which is strong if you have good network connectivity. But I don't. I barely get three towers when I'm being lucky. Mostly it's on two right now as I speak. Yes, it's on two."

    "I like big books and I cannot lie. Hello. Swell. Today let's talk about where the obsession to the biggest books I've read. These are the works of philosophers, a long dead or still alive, that fascinate me every single day. The main reason is that unlike other forms of academia, where you are restricted by a box, if you are talking about something, that's exactly it. The frontier mindset involved was in making the discovery, right? And then that's it."

    "The end of a work assignment. Right. However, you will rarely see Saionara being used in friendly, familiar type of relationships because they do see each other tomorrow. They do see each other later. This dynamic plays off so beautifully in this book. Using the unnamed narrator, Miko Kawkami exposes us to this omnipresent anxiety of loneliness and knowing one's place in the world. Now, the narrator of the book is a child."

    "He is known to want to stay huddled indoors. There's a 20 year gap between when the apple I'm putting air quotes as I speak this when the apple fell and when the story of the Newtonian apple became public and the Principia mathematica came out, which is the book in which you can read about all of these mathematical and physical limit of physical calculations. Right?"
