Description

Here is the transcription of the comic text:

Person 1: I've read a great deal of philosophy. What we are, why we are, where we're going…

Person 2: And the only thing I can come to is that although it's all pointless, evolution has accidentally given us the ability to perceive our own existence and the awareness that there are things we like.

Person 2: Between those two, you can form a closed loop of meaningfulness.

Person 2: And if you accept this notion, there's a clear conclusion: you must embrace humanness. Embrace high pleasure. Embrace low pleasure. Embrace love. Embrace hate. Be afraid, be brave, be little, be big.

Person 1: So, what are you doing today?

Person 2: Grading essays on Kant?

Person 1: Embracing the hate, then?

Person 2: Bingo.
