Nihilism is Almost Spiritual
The current project I’m working on is to organize the most fundamental arguments of my philosophy in their most striped down logical forms in an interconnected web like knowledgebase using Obsidian. I’ve set a rough deadline for this project to be the end of the year. Then, I’ll put some rhetorical meat on the logical…

Resisting the Trap of Doing Too Much Too Soon
I know it’s only been 4 or 5 days since I started applying this philosophically derived planning and management system, but I’m already feeling good about it.
