From conscious rapper to money
The story remembers D.X. as having begun in a more self-consciously conscious mode before becoming tired of not making money. That trajectory gives the later exit talk a biography rather than reducing him to a business joke.
The exit fantasy as geography
D.X. jokes about buying half of East Death, rejects it, then imagines the Sunk Coast and finally a place in Bahía Perdida where he can “get lost.” His fantasy is one of the cleanest examples of Lost Eros geography functioning as class desire: neighborhoods become possible selves after liquidity.
