Check out this weeks’ events at The Nook, our hub for the more intimate, informal, and deeply weird conversations. These events are open to all: no registration required, unless it says otherwise. Let’s see if we can figure out this batshit crazy world together!
Monday’s Headlines
Did someone try to invade Moscow again? Did the government resign? Drop by during your lunch break and discuss the news that you can’t not talk about on Monday, September 18th.
Existential Tuesdays
Why work a bullshit job? How do you rationalize suffering? Can you un-brainwash someone? What is the end goal of evolution? Is Schrodinger’s Cat a zombie? Get philosophical over lunch on Tuesday, September 19th. Existential Tuesdays are a low key moment to ask the ultimate questions together, without necessarily finding answers or solutions. For this week’s session we’ll explore the question:
What if women had more power than men?
What are the fundamental roles that men and women play in our society, how are those roles shifting, and what does that mean for our culture, technology, the environment, political processes, and so on?
