i think pe stroseis is a good but first i want to say, i'll never tire of your hyperbolean, the pefstrosanalgys ray. It'srit having been magically on the couch. You'll just stop wanting to do it, is just stop wantingto do it ecause i've had that realization. I don't know if it's new, ecause p f. Strasson was complaining about this ind freedom and resentment,. right of trying to question basic both tions and also the interpersonal kinds of relationships.

David and Tamler dive into the book of Ecclesiastes, an absurdist classic that is somehow also a book of the Bible. Is everything meaningless, vain, and a chasing after the wind? Are humans just the same as animals? Are wise people no better off than fools? Will God judge us after we die, rewarding the good people and punishing the shit-heels? What if there is no afterlife and this is all we get? How should we deal with our pointless, unjust existence? Plus we return to our opening-segment bible— Aeon—and talk about an argument for replacing jealousy with...wait for it…compersion.
