Is this the metaverse, now?

How much would one of these pens go for?

Magic!

Amazing piece.

I once interviewed to be a ghost writer for an old Canadian diplomat who wanted to write his memoirs. Turns out he was a rabid white supremacist, lived in a house he mostly rented out to Taiwanese uni students, and had a decades-long correspondence with Sadam Hussain.

I didn't take the job.

Only way this works is if you hook it up that machine from The Matrix, where you learn macroeconomic theory in five seconds by shoving a metal rod into your head. Then we could all read all the books ever written in a few months!

Someone who works in publishing once told me that demand for books usually lies pretty static across time, and that it's very difficult to inspire demand from people who don't read fairly regularly. Would you say this is true?

I've had my eye on some Opus 88's might spring for one. Thanks!

What pen is that?

No dice finding it in the wild, but ordered!

Something that comes in a coupe glass, like a Manhattan. After you've thrown it, the bowl is wide enough to place on their head like a little hat.
