What we’re about
This is a biweeklyish Meetup for non-serious people to discuss serious topics, or whatever comes up. We generally meet every other Saturday morning at 10:30 at coffee shops in the Milwaukee area, but schedule and location are always open for discussion.
We have a loosely themed discussion, where I or another member will come prepped with some conversation-starters, but the discussion goes where it goes.
This is largely a free-for-all, and I cannot promise order and structure, but there are some basic groundrules:
- Act and speak with basic goodness.
- Listen generously, and allow others time to speak. Hold space.
- No excessive promotion of individual beliefs. No one really knows anything, and we're doing this for funzies, so please stay humble and open-minded.

Philosophy meetup - The Cult of Celebrity
Qemaria | Yemini Coffee Co., South 76th Street , Suite 7, Greenfield, WI, USThis week we'll be basing our discussion on a thought piece around how celebrity worship in a time of "influencers" impacts individual identity and sense of self and the mirror effect this has on society.
As always, the reading is recommended but not required.
The article is available on Substack. There is no paywall, but you will need to enter your email to read it.
