How has New York changed you?
"It’s too recent to really know. I think I changed, and because of those changes came to New York. Oh wait, no! I lied. I wear more black now and have less money and find myself really and truly hating vast swaths of Brooklyn. And I order in too much."

What’s chic about Canada? "Chic? Um, there’s a lot of negative space."

Favorite piece of Canadian nostalgia?
"I dislike Canadiana but really miss riding my bike on empty streets. And Caesars!"
