Today I focused on the word demiurge. This comes from two Greek words: demos "the common people," and ergos "worker." So the demiurge is literally "a working man," as in the title of the latest Jason Statham movie. The first element even includes the idea of a "working-class" or blue-collar commoner.
A Working Man was introduced into the sync-stream by Bill in a comment on Leo's blog:
That blog entry on the Vox Popoli site was titled “The Fourth Librarian”. It was followed up later with a post titled “The Fifth Librarian”, which was then immediately followed up with the funniest blog title given your post here: “A WORKING MAN wins”. That was great.
"Winning" is also something associated with the demiurge in memes:
That's Sophia or Barbelo or some such character checking in on le demiurge, who is watching the world burn. You might think this Spurdo Spärde Yaldabaoth has little in common with the demiurge from whose Reality Temple Arnold is escaping, but you'd be wrong. One of the first results that came up when I ran an image search for spurdo demiurge
This form of the demiurge is known as Leontoeides "the lion-faced," which ties in with Jason Staham's character in A Working Man, Levon (meaning "lion") Cade.
In my last post, "Jason Statham as a pet big cat," I posted this image, from a Reddit thread titled "Don't worry Jason Statham cheetah doesn't exist, he can't hurt you...":
Commenting on the spelling "cheeter," someone writes:
Of course, "with a hard R" is typically a reference to the word nigger as contrasted with its marginally less offensive cousin nigga, so this is another link to the Reality Temple meme.

Come Nerevar, come, and look upon the heart. Friend or traitor come. You n'wah.
Wait, what are you doing? No recall or intervention can work in this place. Put down your weapons; It is not too late for my mercy. Shame on you, Nerevar; I am a god! How can you kill a god? What a grand and intoxicating innocence! No, don't stab the heart of Lorkin and then flee from this place, where destiny is made! Come back Moon and Star, come back sweet Nerevar!
Under sun and sky, outlander. We greet you warmly.
(This is the last place I expected to see Morrowind shitposting. You've made my day, anon.)
I was going to put that comment in spam but, hey, if it's made someone's day . . .
Heh, I know, pretty silly and weird. Now I think about it, though, there's something here.
VQRD for context: Through Morrowind's main quest, the player character is revealed to be the Nerevarine, prophesied reincarnation of Nerevar, ancient military leader of Morrowind. Nerevar was betrayed and possibly killed by three of his advisors, whom broke an oath to him by tapping the divine Heart of Lorkhan; they became living/false gods and took rulership of Morrowind. Dagoth Ur used the Heart himself in the same way, eventually cutting the other three off from the power source (letting their "divinity" slowly fade) while plotting to conquer the land for himself, his methods including use of a giant robot powered by the Heart. The Nerevarine prophecy (first spoken by Azura, an actual god) would see all four false gods deposed and Morrowind's people reunited.
Anon's comment is a garbled take on what Dagoth Ur says to the Nerevarine upon their meeting in Ur's lair. The main difference is "No, don't stab the heart of Lorkin and then flee". While that line is never said, destroying the Heart removes Ur's immortality; after that, instead of killing him it can be safer to run out of the room, letting the giant robot collapse on top of its maker.
So, in a sense, we have another Arnie interfering with false gods (as Yaldabaoth is said to be) that built up their own reality, or at least ideas of how reality ought to be. As a bonus, Dagoth Ur's mask is golden and sun-like.

This raises some interesting questions about Jason. Does this mean Jason Statham is a cheater? He maybe claims to be a working man but isn't (or at least is perhaps working in the wrong way)? Is he a cheetah masquerading as a lion? The song says he's already been bathed/baptized in contrast to my interpretation of the bathtub dream. But is that a euphemism for whatever Jason did with those books in the tub? If that wasn't a good thing, how does Jason rectify that situation?
Leo, the name Jason Statham means "healer at the riverbank," so you may be right to see a baptism connection.
"Bathed him and named him Jason Statham" -- this suggests christening, where bestowing a Christian name is part of the baptism ceremony. That would be infant baptism, of course, a practice which the BoM denounces in surprisingly harsh terms, so that might be an angle for your suggestion that the "baptism" here might be a bad thing.
As for your specific suggestion that baptism is a euphemism for doing something with the books in the tub, I don't think that works well with the dream. In the dream, the point was that the tub couldn't be used because there were books in it. The books are not part of the baptism but rather something that interferes with it.
I don't know. Not a very coherent story so far.
WG, thanks for the background. The Heart seems possibly relevant to the Ace of Hearts sync theme. The "Lorkin" misspelling makes me think of this poem:
https://allpoetry.com/If-Hands-Could-Free-You,-Heart
WG writes about destroying the Heart of Lorkham. Leo writes about "a cheater." Looking up the Heart, I found this:
"It is important to note that within the game it is realistically impossible to kill the heart outright (unless using cheats). This is because the heart has a great deal of health and tremendous regenerative powers. Only the Keening and Sunder can banish it. However, if it is destroyed through cheats, the main quest cannot be completed and is bugged."

William,
Part 1 of 2
And speaking of Jason Statham, and lions and bees
and heifers/calves and Temples, Oh MY!
check this out:
As perhaps you know Jason Statham was the protagonist
in the 2024 movie Beekeeper, which both Marshall
and I have seen several times as we both loved the plot
with the message being: having the brave endeavor
to right a wrong.
Of course the bee is me so I have a symbolic and personal
connection with bees.
Recall I shared that there has been 2 hives of bees in our house
over the years. The first being a beehive in my upstairs bathroom
a year or so after we moved in..
Of course as I'm sure you know
there is also a Biblical and mythological connection
to bees and lions.
Copy and paste: ( link below )
"Most people are aware of the connection between lions and bees
through the biblical story of Samson.
A kernel of this story originates in the cult of the bee
goddess of Anatolia, as does the myth of Aristaeus
recounted by Virgil near the start of the Common Era.
Before moving back to Anatolia, let’s look at the Greek myth.
It is in Greece that art specifically linking the bee
and the lion first appears, yet the association seems
to have been imported from Anatolia.
The swarm of bees arising from the heifer/bull sacrifice
rather than from a lion
is a Greek permutation of another myth.
Normally bees are assumed
to be linked exclusively with bulls in pictures, but we often forget
cows can also have horns.
Bees and cows are alike from a human standpoint,
in that they provide nourishing food from their bodies.
Bees like cows are normally fairly docile and allow themselves
to be “herded” into a new field or nest site.
But bees are like lions in that they roar, they like the sun,
they hunt in an open field, they are territorial,
they attack in a coordinated fashion, and (when possible)
they make their home in caves."

Part 2
If you recall I've recently commented about the Heifer/Cows
and the Charging Bull on Wall Street. Recall that I connected
the prophecy of the sacrifice of a Red Heifer
and the Third Temple in Israel which I believe as I stated
previously that the Red Heifer
will be sacrificed perhaps on Passover
of this month.
Recall I mentioned that I believe something very significant
will happen ' In April' and the reason why I believe that is a dream
I had in Feb (21) 2016 which I titled: In April.
The In April dream was very SYMBOLIC and had reference to
my brother dying and leaving me a significant amount
of money from his business
(which IRL he doesn't have a business ).
In the dream I was shocked
to find out that my brother had died
(as IRL my brother is not presently dead).
In the dream I asked my mother ( who passed over in 2002 )
when did my brother die and she said ; In April
to which I replied; When?
and she repeated; In April!!!
Which IRL I had the dream on Feb
21 2016 and in the dream, I also knew it was February
which I recall being very confused wondering how
that could be.
Being that dreams are symbolic and not literal
( premonition dreams being the exception)
I can't help but wonder if the symbolism of
a significant amount of money having something to do
with what's currently unfolding in the US stock market.
Is WALL STREET and its Charging Bull ready to fall? .
I've been predicting for a very long time that America
was destined to 'fall' ECONOMICALLY
at the Shifting of Ages, aka The Great Reset.
Unfortunately, I think we're on that precipice
now ....and I think it was all by design with Apollo
( Donald Trump) at the Helm.
And speaking of golden honey bees , golden lions ,
golden ages and golden gates,
I'm sure you are aware that Trump has 'blinged' out the White
House with gold everywhere. ( see link )
Also I'm not surprised that the war drums are beating
towards Iran, as I think it will be Iran who will be 'implicated'
especially IF there are 2 events that happen
at the two Golden Gates.( San Fran on the 40 parallel North)
and Jerusalem.
Of course there is also a Lion's Gate in Jerusalem.
Also I can't help but wonder if these 'interesting times'
we are in have connections to not only my 1974 past life reading
and the Great Upheaval
( which the past life reader told me that my soul incarnates in )
but also to the Bee Colony Collapse that
has been in the news for several years now. ( see link)
Everything is connected, no?

William,
I read my previous comment to Marshall
and Marshall corrected me regarding
the bees in our house.
In 1994 or so the hive in my bathroom
were yellowjackets, not honeybees.
The 2nd bee hive which happened many years later
in the early 2000's were honey bees and the beekeeper who
came and gathered the bees ( which the bees had built their hive
near our living room chimney ), also gave us many jars of
delicious honey which we still have several jars.
Anywho when Marshall remined me of that,
I made the connection of the duality of the coloring
of both the yellowjackets
and the honeybees both being black/dark and yellow/light.
Of course interestingly our recent syncs in the stream have been
about the the darkness/black/nigredo and the yellow/light/yellow
balloon in the photos, being trapped in the underbelly of the car near
the tail/tale pipe, preventing the balloon to rise.
In the movie The Beekeeper, Adam Clay ( Jason Statham )
'stings' when forced to do so to protect the hive.
I found it interesting that in the movie Adam begins to" sting"
those who become his enemies
when his friend, a Black woman Eloise Parker played by
Phylicia Rashad, becomes the victim of scammers and loses
all of her personal wealth as well the monies of a charity
that she chairs. ( see link )
Perhaps Eloise was the archetype of the Queen Bee.
Also in the Beekeeper movie, the setting takes place
in Massachusetts, which is on a powerful Ley Line,
the 40th parallel north.
The El's followed the 40. MIT is on the 40.
Salt Lake City is on the 40.
Recall my many comments about the Bitter Sea and Mary.
Great Bitter Lake
Copy and paste: ( asterisks mine)
"The Modern English and Arabic names are
translations of the Greek name
(Ancient Greek: Πικραὶ Λίμναι, lit. 'bitter lakes').
It was also known in Latin as "dead lake"
(Latin: Lacus mori).
The ancient Egyptian name for the Bitter Lakes region
was km-wr, lit. *****"great black one".******

I also found an interesting article about Deborah and her
honeyed words and Deborah as the Flaming/Torches/Lightening
Bee.

What I meant about baptism is that the song makes a claim counter to my interpretation wrt baptism. In the song, it's been done already. In my interpretation (which could certainly be wrong!) it's currently blocked by some deed to do with books. Whether a deed of omission or commission is as yet unclear, but to your point, the books are somehow in the way.
To rectify the two claims I'm suggesting there WAS a baptism as the song claims, but the wrong one, a wicked one such as your parallel to an infant baptism. IOW, there is such a thing as an anti-Christ baptism and it is perhaps that baptism that the song refers to as having been done already. That baptism probably involved these red books and that is why they now fill/block the tub. The result is that the prior not-good baptism now blocks the real/true baptism from occurring.
Who, then, sings this song? If the cheeter is Jason Statham in the "basement" (here on earth) then who sings, boasting that they own this baptized cheeter? Whoever it is, if Reddit is to be believed, the owner plans to sell him out at a bargain rate.
Leo, I guess I had assumed the dream and the song were referencing the same baptism from different vantage points in time.
If it’s two events, an evil “baptism in books” preventing a good baptism — well we do speak of “immersing” oneself in a book, which could have a malign effect depending on what the book is. In the dream, my impression was of Jewish fiction and a mainstream textbook on the literature of the ancient Near East. Perhaps it’s a reference to the “Bible received from the Jews” which stops people from accepting the words that hiss forth?
Coming back here before I forget about this entirely. For Elder Scrolls lore accuracy purposes, I favour the UESP wiki instead of the Fandom one you linked regarding the Heart of Lorkhan. That page surprised me with mention of a "Heart Stone". I didn't play Skyrim enough to encounter them and there's no mention on UESP's Heart of Lorkhan page, though it does say the Heart itself was known as the "First Stone". Some potential links back to Bill's Sawtooth/Rose Stone.
