I’d love to chat sometime about your experience with the dying.

yeah, that’d be cool. i really wish i had mysterious secret knowledge about death. the fact that i don’t, even though i’m around it a lot, makes me feel a little sheepish. it really seems pretty mechanical. death (for me) tends to be much less illuminating to the human condition than observing people taking care of their dying loved ones. now THAT is an education.

That’s what interests me, too.

so much about identity. and meaning. and motivated reasoning to justify life choices, suffering, opportunity cost etc.

and then you add in a wild dynamic with regards to physician assisted suicided.

I would love to be able to sit with people going through these things as a second act.

become a hospice chaplain my dude, you’d be great!

Thanks - this has been a low key goal of mine for several years. 🙏

Headed to sleep but let’s chat before too long

awesome. full disclosure: some time in the next 20 years my goal is to develop a bitcoin philosophers conference to be held in my family’s forest. good news, it’s within a podcast drive from troy cross so i feel confident i can eventually convince him to come down, bad news… it will take me 20 years to build the cabins, infrastructure, etc.✌️🍻😂

That sounds incredible, just tell me when!
