But kind of... stripping away in this manner... I’m showing something that hasn’t been through all of these rolling, tumultuous, complicated, upsetting, nauseating processes... Taking away my hunt and my frustration, and instead just saying ‘Here, I think this is all it really ever was; I guess it’s not that clever after all.’
Which is scarier than it sounds.
(Of course it's not always as simple as that... But it's nice to pretend that it is.)
