“You know, Chloe, sometimes I think you're just writing lies about ancient Maine in order to mess with me... Venture capital. Collateralized debt obligations. Structured investment vehicles. This is like some occult shit. People won't read it... Asset-backed security. This shit sounds made-up! It sounds like some fake shit!”

“To my friend below, I'm sorry your living situation has become so precarious. I'm still unclear why you aren't allowed to live on one of your planets 'nature preserves.' Does your state not deem you sufficiently 'natural'? I guess we're 'all natural' here on the moon. Our machines are natural. Our artificial weather is natural. Everyone I know is natural. Why wouldn't we be?”
