Seeing my nephews again after 4-years was a blast! By far one of the most fun and also precarious trips I have been on. (I will have to narrate this in person). Until next time Justin and Denson! #delhiboys #canada🇨🇦 #gelato by @thejusukal

The Existential Three Way began in early September 2020 to help occupy the dullness of the pandemic. Irving John Snider IV, Dragan Trivanovich, and I together read 34 books (12000+ pages) so far at a rate of about a book a week with breaks here and there. The primary focus was to read philosophical novels inspired by the listing on Daily Nous. We are always looking for recommendations so drop some below. We concluded that the joy of philosophy does not come through grating our eyeballs past dry academic text but instead when one is engaged in a community of inquiry. Additionally, the mere fact that a book is held as a classic or in public reverence does not mean it is enjoyable to read or engages with philosophical ideas in any remarkable capacity (sorry, Marcus Aurelius). This was not a torturous or necessarily a commendable endeavor. It requires a commitment of 30 minutes (at a fast reading pace) to 1.5 hours at a spoken rate (literally reading it out loud) of daily reading to accomplish. The time one spends commuting or waiting around for things can be devoted to the task. We achieved this comfortably with full-time jobs and social commitments, and I hope it encourages others to read as well. I shared a document before on recommendations to help have a focused reading regimen. I have grown as a man, a philosopher (presumptuous), and a friend through this reading group. I hope this continues for years to come. Thank you, Irv and Dragan, for reviving my joy in philosophy and providing me a much-needed break from academic texts. #reading #yearinreading #library #readinggoals #philosophy #philosophicalnovels by @thejusukal

Things I learned from my first Renaissance Fair:1) very few people are in actual Renaissance costume2) Furries are an IRL thing3) People can camp near the fair 4) Add two and three together5) Fahrenheit 450 is the temperature at which paper burns6) How to not go to the bathroom for 8 hours 7) Etsy stores become manifest8) You don't have to dress like yt ppl, so next year I am going as the Samoothiri of Kozhikode peddling pepper. But maybe Saruman the White....Thank you Shane for this memorable adventure, looking forward to the next one! #ren #renissancefestival #yesiamwearingatshirt by @thejusukal

Though I live in this hellscape, you descended into Hades and visited me. Thanks for making making my non-existent spring-break memorable. Joe is the brother I never had growing up and it was an adventure, to say the least, to explore the natural treasures of Texas with him, Kristian and June. Looking forward to our next adventure! by @thejusukal
