Negative philosophy, like negative theology.

 

Which is why philosophy is the truest subject: because it’s about the void.

Philosophy can bear that. Philosophy doesn’t mind being about nothing.

 

The void: that’s what’s moving us to chemical engineering. Nihilism itself is moving us. Nihilism’s alive. It does things. It plans. It’s like a God – an anti-god. The void is the source of all dastardly plans.

 

The void wants to destroy philosophy by having us teaching it. Us. And in chemical engineering. Us! In chemical engineering!

 

The void desires. It wants a bit of entertainment before everything becomes void. Before it absorbs all into itself.

And we’re the entertainment. We’re the game the void plays with itself.
