When the zeitgeist is overwhelmingly nihilist, dare to be an absurdist.
I came here to say this.
Once you realize that life has no meaning, except that which we arbitrarily assign, you can only go a few ways with it. Of all the 'ism's you could choose in that moment, absudism is perhaps the least worst.
"Credo quia absurdum est."
Absurdism (of the Camus variety) is boomer nihilism.
Auberon Quinn, is that you?
