blobject

noun 2

Definitions

noun

1

A designed product, often a household object, distinguished by smooth flowing curves, bright colours, and an absence of sharp edges.

2

The entire universe viewed as a single entity featuring internal variability but not containing discrete parts.

1. There really is just one concrete particular, viz., the whole universe (the blobject). 2. The blobject has enormous spatiotemporal structural complexity, and enormous local variability, even though it does not have any genuine parts.

But nihilism is also compatible with existence monism—the thesis that there is a single, all-encompassing simple (the cosmos, a.k.a. “the blobject”)—as well as the extreme nihilist thesis that there are no objects whatsoever.
