It's like maybe this is all just getting gradually washed away.
And Blend is kind of...
Part of that, it turns out that he's been like recreating this same experiment for like the last like 25 years.
So the narrator of the novel is like the 25th black bag, the 25th iteration.
And all of the past ones are formed like a small like cult of like a sort of men's rights activist cult for the meat in like a weird canal warehouse.
A bit of some of Percival Everett's novels, I think, kind of resolve in that way as well.
There's that movie, oh God, I can't remember the title, that one, Sorry to Bother You.
where it's like sort of cold callers.
It's like there's a point in the story where you want to kind of break into the inner sanctum and it's like that's sort of that equivalent of that, where it's like this is what's kind of going on behind the scenes.
But yeah, Priest is a good example of that.
Truly.
where this person's writing an autobiography and then gradually you realize that the world outside is is being created by the is being made by these that's where it goes yeah that feels really pertinent as well probably a reason why he's not that popular um but like blenders actually and i think like blend is another example of where like about world building

Oh, God, sorry.
He's another example of me being quite a bad satirist.
He could have just been a sort of a terrible lecturer.
And I think in an earlier draft, he kind of was.
He was a sort of Jordan Peterson.
I got a bit obsessed with early Jordan Peterson stuff, where he himself seemed to be obsessed with saving young disenfranchised men and giving them a sense of purpose and these sort of
these sort of talks at times sort of oddly sort of beautiful that he'd give about like people have to go to work every day just to make sure that the lights come on.
