There’s been some interesting modern takes on the Greek schools of philosophy, with particularly stoicism seeing an uptick. If I had to recommend someone who was all about questioning assumptions - similar to cynical philosophy - Hume comes to mind, I think? Maybe someone else has a better recommendation than that, though!
Ay, based- the smth was an abbreviation of “something”. Confucian ethics is absolutely at odds with your post lol, but Confucius isn’t everyone’s vibe!
I think that there’s this place that a lot of people reach when grappling with the meaninglessness of existence, where they get stuck in existential despair.
My comment was glib, but the core of it was meant to be like: “keep going, keep investigating those ideas and push yourself to learn more.” If you can get ahold of some Emil Cioran, Kirkegaard, Ernest Becker, and José Ortega they’re good- I’d revisit Camus, then touch on Cioran first, probably. Deals a lot with absurdity and failure. Try not to get put off by the religious overtones of Kirkegaard.
Stick with it!
Dang bro go read Nietzsche or Camus or smth. Learn to love the boulder
Is this just better SWTOR?
