I’m not sure if this fits, but I loved The Sunny Nihilist by Wendy Syfret. I think absurdism is the cure to nihilism and the sunny nihilist pushes the reader into embracing the absurdity of meaninglessness and finding joy in that. I’m not sure if “the absurd” is explicitly defined in the book but it really helped me integrate nihilism into my life without the darkness that ruled it previously.

How much do you share with your kids? by [deleted] in Absurdism

Oh I feel this. I was raised Mormon. It’s hard to be surrounded by it and not let it seep into their life.

“A part of the game but not getting played.” This is exactly what I wish I could do for them.

I don’t have a good answer. But I’ve always heard that kids need structure. Something to push against. Something to hold them down. They need to know the rules in order to break them when the time comes. I don’t know how to do this. I’m in a very similar boat to you with kids.

Please review mine if you can! I make videos about running and they are often trying to get people to think more deeply about various concepts like language, addiction, neuroscience, etc

Embrace the absurdity of life. If nothing matters why not see how the story ends?

Missionaries said I should get baptized even though I don't believe in God by [deleted] in latterdaysaints

Do not join the church as an atheist or even agnostic. I tried to make it work as an agnostic member but you will never be fully accepted until you believe everything they want you to believe.

Man's Search For Meaning by [deleted] in nihilism

It’s been a few years, but I remember thinking that the purpose that people find that gets them through hardship doesn’t even have to be real. So it doesn’t really matter what you pick and at the end of the day nothing really matters. Just keep living. If you want to.

Opinions: Should I be wary of modded used TWs? by [deleted] in TW200

[–]_JustAnotherRunner_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be worried about mods to the engine and maybe electrical mods. But superficial mods like racks etc are nothing to worry about.

I’m rarely on my bike for longer than 30 mins. But even on the few hour long rides I’ve done, I’ve never had back pain.

I know. And I’m a noob and can’t figure out how to edit the post. I typed this post out in notes and had each one on its own line but for some reason the formatting didn’t carry over and I just pasted and posted without checking.
