i think what attracted me initially to existentialism was this realization that there are a lot of crutches, like tha we have that say, oh, humans are this, and they're supposed to be. And when you start realizing that, like, does they can't all be right, at least this was my journey. This, this freethe, the fact that freedom is so daunting was something that i, i think i really related to.
David and Tamler don black turtlenecks and light up a couple of Gauloises to talk about Jean Paul Sartre's classic essay “Existentialism is a Humanism.” Why are choices so fundamental to our experience? What does Sartre mean when he says that “existence precedes essence”? Why does he try to shoehorn universalizability into a view that’s clearly hostile to it?
Plus, how much free time is good for you? Is that even the right question?
