I long for the day where mothers spend more time with their baby girls (and boys) reading books and teaching them about the stars than they do taking pictures of their kids in cute outfits...

Sadly things seem to be going in the opposite direction.

@freemo
This, or rather people just willing to lead there 'nice and chill' family life without worrying about a changing world, is indeed worth worrying about! ;-)

You might be interested in Nolen Gertz's new book on Nihilism: https://www.bol.com/nl/p/nihilism/9200000107892408 .
There is also a great recent podcast where he is interviewed about the subject: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6dcusfbfvWKCla6jQUbuKV?si=6KMg6qhDQCa_9NeZ4YMiRw

@Erik While i see some value in nihlistic philosophy (particularly specific forms of it I wont get into) I would not say im generally someone into nihlism, especially the modern day brand of it. With that said perhaps this particular book is the sort I might enjoy, so not going to judge it specifically.

If i get the chance i will take a peek at the book and see if it calls to me.

@freemo Then I really recommend you to listen the podcast first, there he explains what he thinks is wrong with modern day nihilism :-) I haven't read the book yet, only listened to the podcast. But he is a teacher at my university and I know him as a great philospher / ethicist / teacher!

@Erik I will given him a chance on your endorsement then.

Bear in mind though that i am very overloaded with getting my startup off the ground right now. So may not have time to pursue that for a bit.
