CURRENT MISSION

To prepare for the oncoming Zombie Apocalypse.

PHILOSOPHY

Existential Humanism
Sartre said "Existentialism is a humanism" because it expresses the power of human beings to make freely-willed choices, independent of the influence of religion or society. Kierkegaard suggested that the best use of our capacity for making choices is to freely choose to live a fully human life that incorporates traditional human structures such as marriage. Camus, in his book The Plague, suggests that some of us may choose to be heroic, even knowing that it will bring us neither reward nor salvation, and Simone de Beauvoir, in her book The Ethics of Ambiguity, argues that embracing our own personal freedom requires us to fight for the freedoms of all humanity.

Several recent films seem to be heavily influenced by Existential Humanism, such as I ♥ Huckabees, Garden State, High Fidelity, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, each of which explores the struggle to make freely willed humane choices in the absence of clear, unambiguous moral guidance. Ce La Vie!

Música, películas y libros

I Heart Huckabees, Sunshine, Grandma's Boy
The Beatles
Camus' "The Stranger" & Rand's "Anthem"

That's just a sampling, I read too much and watch too many movies and listen to too much music to even begin to delve into this topic!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can make hemp jewelry & cook roughly 3 or 4 different meals.

I could give you the basics of oil painting and cartooning, maybe even a little photography. But, art is all relative. I'm always ready to bring out the art supplies and have craft time!
