This was really nice company to listen to while cleaning my kitchen, thank you! It’s so interesting- most chapters did a lot of back and forth with flashbacks, but i’m pretty sure this is the first one set completely in the past! There is a lot to learn, so it makes total sense. I agree with what you said about countries coming together - i’m also a bit pessimistic about that. What I find really weird is that andy weir said he doesn’t consider this book/story to be political? What’s more political than all the nations’ governments coming together to save humanity? Also, 👏👏👏👏👏 for the astrophage pronunciation! It literally is just from watching the movie, if i’d read the book first i’d have done the same thing. One last mini thing: the ph has a f sound, like astrofage. Then it’s perfect!

ouch, my bad on the ‘page’ thing, thought it would help short cut the pronunciation for the simplification and being in a science field always familiar with what a phage is was hoping that would be enough to get Dylan there. Not that it matters in the least anyways 😜 and I am kinda missing our high class all apologies sun dots. It’s the enthusiasm that daws me here 😘

This is such a good chapter for knowing if this is your type of story or not, glad you are enjoying this style of unfolding since it is only going harder and deeper the further in we go. 😆 Very excited for the next few and of course the book can draw it out much more succinctly than a movie can but is ok, they did a good job adding some fun quick bits in for the movie to make up for that even if at some cost to the science. Watching someone invoking the scientific method isn’t exactly exciting enough for the big screen without spicing up the action here and there. Part of why I love this adaption so much, they did an excellent job telling the same story in a more visual way without losing the kernels of knowledge to be shared. I still have hope humanity could get it together if the crisis was big enough and near term enough for action but COVID certainly didn’t help my outlook on that. It wasn’t quite catastrophic enough to get everyone on board fast enough. It is importantly that in this world they simply just picked one person to run it all with unlimited resources and no governance slowing things down but bureaucracy will always get you in the end 🥴 I also love the name Dimitri 🥰 and the best part is with Russian nick names it becomes Dima, one of the rare ones that gets shorter. I very much miss my good friend Dima but his wicked wife keeps him away from us which makes me very sad 😞 He is too much the sweet boy who never wants to rock the boat and lets her run his life. They won’t even let me babysit their cats anymore just because we are too liberal *sigh* and even more unforgivable- she is bad cat mom 😾 I had to buy their kitties toys and places to play because she wants her house perfectly clean and cannot touch cat things (has a maid) looney tunes I tell ya.
