We have some recurring meetings where team members are expected to add discussion topics to a doc beforehand. If nobody does the meeting gets cancelled, it’s great.

I started reading The Myth of Sisyphus because I’m interested in absurdism but haven’t read much other philosophy apart from some of the classic Stoic books. I found it very dense and hard to get through the first parts with references to philosophers I hadn’t read, does it get easier to read?

So many incredible memories with that game! My friend and I used to play really long hot seat games culminating in a big battle at the end. So much fun.

Uhh, I mean this pragmatic workaround

C’mon Tars!

Definitely agree with this, I find Siu Nim Tau a good example of it for me.

Lots of physical training and also escapism. I guess training is also a form of escapism in a way too.

Rucking, lifting, Wing Chun, Star Citizen, Stoicism (the og version). I try not to monologue too much on them but it takes restraint.

Didn’t he punch some guy in the face for making a joke? Pretty sure I’ve never done that…
