Existential Comics

The title is based on Sarah Bakewell's excellent book "At the Existentialist Café".

de Beauvior, offscreen: "In order to leave the waiter a tip, you must authentically endorse the practice of tipping. Which I don't, if that wasn't clear."

God damn poets, writing interesting things that people like!

Seriously though why is Batman doing all this? Pretty weird thing to do bro. Maybe introspect a little, use your money to help the poor instead of building Bat Rocket Launchers or whatever. Be normal.

If you are paid to do philosophy, then any thinking at all off the clock is essentially unpaid overtime, when you think about it (although for the love of god, don't think about it off the clock)

Try to improve society so people enjoy their lives? I think you'll find that's actually impossible, on account of structure of existence itself. Also I don't care for women.

Surely a society of all narcissistic tech bros whose only talent is talking people into giving them money would be ideal, right guys? Right? Explain: One of the funniest stories in history that I heard was Dostoevsky recounting some utopian thinkers among the Russian Aristocracy that wanted to make everything rational, and someone objected saying the peasants would never go for it, so they replied "then we'll just eliminate the peasants". As though a society of all rich people would somehow work, even though the peasants did all the work, which is sort of the one thing you actually need for society to operate. The rich people would literally just starve in like two seconds. People sort of still have the same idea today though, like if we can just eliminate the poor somehow, everyone will be rich and live off the interest from their stocks or whatever, not realizing that stocks only go up because somewhere, someone is actually doing work. Oh right, and uh, the robots will do all human labor in like the next 5 years, I forgot about that. Good luck with that one bros.
