Beautiful insights on phenomenology and existentialism. He paints a picture of the fear of simply having a consciousness—this “nausea” is relatable, dark, grieving, and ubiquitous. He somehow puts into words the ineffable substance of love and fear that living beings are forced to terms with. It’s fucking brilliant.
