Kindle Notes & Highlights
Really, it’s amazing how much kitsch she can cram into her regulation ninety-six cubic feet of personal space between her mattress and the ceiling.
“A march. And that would accomplish what exactly? They’d blockade us in the street and jack up the price on the water they sell us. Think about it. This is the same company that owns the record labels that sign the artists that write the resistance songs. Protest as a form of war profiteering. They love every minute of it.”
I watch her six when she bites off more multitasking than she can chew, and she handles the people end of things, because she knows I’d rather have my fingernails pulled out than make small talk with strangers. It’s stupid and sloppy, but it works.
as far as I’m concerned, let the internet go on internetting.
The idea of someone coming after us because of this is like something out of a bad movie.
I have to find somewhere to put my lenses back in so they can show me the route to the bus. I can’t do that out here, I’ve walked too far and ended up in an actual no-shit war zone, there’s who even knows what in the air.
Intense alteration, with years of combat training and brainwashing and supersoldier drugs and mystery procedures I can’t even conceptualize outside of shit I’ve seen in movies.
“The Director isn’t here tonight. She’s at a meeting in Shanghai.”
Have you ever seen one of those big old houses they used to have in movies, with those trees that rich people have cut into the shapes of other things?
I get to learn all about every random person’s expert opinion of how ugly and stupid I look in the video, or how annoying my voice sounds, or how much I suck at the game so of course I’m attention-whoring here instead.
“Do you know what a firebreak is?”
A not so great book
Four years I’ve lived with these people, and I know virtually nothing about them.
Yeah, neither do the readers
