i mean have you ever heard about georges bataille?
he basically:
- had a deadly boring job at the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris
- which allowed to focus his energy on writing very obscure books on eroticism, mysticism, death, etc
- hung out with surrealists and communists
- founded a secret society which had nocturnal gatherings in the woods
- also planned his own death as a part of a human sacrifice ritual but apparently none of the members of the society were willing to be the executioner
