About us
A structured philosophy community for people who genuinely want to think deeply, read carefully, and engage seriously with ideas.
This is not a casual social club or a “show up and improvise” discussion group. Each meeting centers around assigned readings that members are expected to complete beforehand. Conversations are focused, moderated, and grounded in the text itself.
Topics may include:
Existentialism
Ethics
Metaphysics
Psychology & consciousness
Literature with philosophical themes
Classical and modern thinkers
The goal is to create an environment that feels calm, intellectually rigorous, and meaningful — more seminar than coffee chat.
This group is intentionally text-focused. Discussions are expected to stay centered on the book, essay, or philosopher being studied. Contemporary political arguments and unrelated current events are not the purpose of this group and are not welcome during meetings.
Expect:
• Weekly readings
• Structured discussions
• Respectful but critical debate
• Serious engagement with ideas
• A community of intellectually curious people
This group is for people who miss deep conversation, want accountability in their reading habits, and are looking for a consistent intellectual space outside academia.
If you’re looking for surface-level discussion, this probably isn’t the right fit. If you’re excited by difficult ideas and thoughtful conversation, welcome.

The Warden of The Tomb by Franz Kafka
·OnlineOnlineHey all! Welcome to Kafkaesque Philosophy.
For this session we will be reading The Warden of The Tomb by Kafka (pages 206 - 225). I will be reading from this copy here: However you can read from any copy you find.
Description of work:
The Warden of the Tomb is an unfinished dramatic work by Franz Kafka, written in 1916–1917. It follows a prince who meets an aging warden charged with guarding the royal tomb. As their conversation unfolds, the warden describes the strange and supernatural burden of his duty, including encounters with the restless dead who attempt to escape the tomb at night. The work blends political authority, death, isolation, and the supernatural, creating a haunting meditation on duty and the uneasy boundary between the living and the dead.
The discussion will remain focused on the text itself, its philosophical themes, symbolism, and interpretation.
Please come having completed the reading beforehand.2 attendees
