Édition 46: À la recherche du vivant de Iida Turpeinen
Pour notre prochaine rencontre, une découverte de la littérature finlandaise : *À la recherche du vivant* de la jeune auteure Iida Turpeinen.
En 1741, le naturaliste Georg Wilhelm Steller rejoint la Grande Expédition du Nord. Cette mission d’exploration et de recherche scientifique, menée par le capitaine Vitus Béring, a pour objectif d’ouvrir une route maritime entre l’Asie et l’Amérique. Les navires partis de Russie n’atteindront jamais le continent américain, mais Steller fera une découverte singulière : une nouvelle espèce de grand mammifère marin, connue aujourd’hui sous le nom de « rhytine de Steller ». Chassée pour sa viande, la rhytine disparaît en moins de trois décennies, et devient dès lors un objet de fascination.
Épopée passionnante, *À la recherche du vivant* nous fait traverser les siècles dans le sillage de la rhytine de Steller, mais aussi des hommes et des femmes dont le destin a été mêlé à celui de cette extraordinaire créature. Entre roman d’aventures, histoire coloniale, des découvertes et des sciences, et réflexion quant à l’impact de l’homme sur son environnement, Iida Turpeinen nous embarque dans un récit enlevé dont elle déploie avec originalité les multiples facettes pour, *in fine*, éclairer notre humanité et notre rapport au vivant.
Merci d'avoir lu le livre avant la rencontre afin de partager vos impressions, sentiments et pensées. À la fin de la séance, nous choisirons collectivement la prochaine lecture et pour, ceux qui veulent, nous poursuivrons la discussion autour d’un petit dîner dans un restaurant.

Coffee w/ 100 strangers challenge #22 (SPECIAL EDITION: WALK W/ ME)
Hi 👋 I'm Younes.
A few weeks ago I started a challenge to have coffee with 100 strangers. This group is a way for me to achieve that.
Why ? You might ask. And to that, I say why not ?
Talking to strangers is both scary and exciting.
Scary because we fear the awkward silence, the awkward laughs, and the awkward small talk.
Exciting because we discover new life stories, new life perspectives and just whole new world.
My argument is the exciting part is way more rewarding than scary part. If you agree with that statement, I wanna meet you !
Here is what we would probably talk about in our coffee meeting:
* You life story
* My life story
* Tech, business, food, movies, shows, music, relationships, religion, podcasts, chess, books, and whatever you're passionate about
* Ask you some of my fav questions ([https://younesaeo.com/questions](https://younesaeo.com/questions)) and discuss our answers.
**SPECIAL EDITION:** This week is a little bit different. I'm doing my monthly 6H walk. So we're not sitting in a coffee shop but rather walking :) You can join and leave whenever you want and of course we'll buy coffee on the way.
P.S: You can send me a message on whatsapp if you'd like to know more info about me or the event (+33784990146)

There are changing rooms and showers.
**Get There Early**
Try to get there early to change and warm up so we can start right on time.
**Registration & Payments**
Registration is 12€ per person, and you can sign up via PayPal through this event page. For alternative payments, check for available slots on the event page first. Then, submit your payment via https://revolut.me/nishuastic with a description of which event you are signing up for, and send the screenshot to one of us so that we can add you.

**FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS**
1. I don’t speak French, can I join?
* Yes! We are an international group, and everyone speaks English!
2. Are there still available slots? I can’t sign up! Help!
* Check the bottom of the event page for availabilities. Once full, RSVPs will be closed. Sign up as early as possible because the events fill up very quickly.
3. I signed up, but I can’t make it! Can I get a refund?
* No refunds for cancellations or no-shows. If you inform us early enough, we can try to find a substitute and issue a refund, but no guarantees.
4. Why can’t I get a refund?
* We need a fixed number of participants to maximize court usage, court fees, team arrangements, and team rotations. Cancellations throw all of this off.
5. Do I need to bring anything? Water? Racquets? Birdies?
* If you have your own racquet, that will be best! Otherwise, we have spare ones, and we provide the shuttlecocks. Bring enough water to hydrate yourself.

Duty vs. Results: What Makes an Action Moral?
When judging morality, should we prioritize **intentions/duty** or **outcomes/results**? It introduces two influential philosophers as representatives of these approaches.
* **Immanuel Kant (deontology):** An action is moral when it is done from **duty** and follows rational, universal principles (the **categorical imperative**). Certain acts—like lying—are wrong regardless of the consequences; you can’t do a wrong thing for a right reason.
* **John Stuart Mill (utilitarian consequentialism):** The morality of an action is determined by its **effects**, specifically how much **happiness/well-being** it produces. Mill argues that some pleasures are “higher” than others, and that good intentions don’t redeem harmful outcomes.
## Discussion Questions
1. **The lying dilemma:** A murderer comes to your door and asks if your friend is hiding inside. Kant would say you must not lie.
2. **Can good intentions rescue a bad outcome?**
3. **The organ harvest problem:** A surgeon has five patients dying of organ failure and one healthy patient in for a checkup. Killing the one to harvest organs would save five lives, and the math works out for the utilitarian. Why does this feel so deeply wrong? Is that feeling a point in Kant's favor, or just a bias we should overcome?
4. **Do rules need exceptions?** Kant insists moral rules must be universal, with no exceptions. But most of us can imagine extreme scenarios where any rule seems like it should bend. Does the need for exceptions fatally undermine deontology, or is the strength of the system precisely that it refuses to bend?
5. **Who gets to calculate the consequences?** Utilitarianism asks us to maximize good outcomes, but we're notoriously bad at predicting consequences. If we can't reliably know the results of our actions, is it practical to base our entire moral system on outcomes? Does this uncertainty push us back toward rules and principles?
6. **Everyday morality:** Think about a real moral decision you've made recently, even a small one. Did you reason more like a Kantian (what's the right thing to do in principle?) or more like a utilitarian (what will produce the best result?)? Do most people naturally lean one way?
7. **Justice vs. the greater good:** A town can prevent a deadly plague by sacrificing one innocent person. The greater good is clearly served. But is it just? Can an action be morally right and deeply unjust at the same time?
8. **The big synthesis question:** Are these two systems actually opposed, or do they often arrive at the same answers by different paths? Is it possible that we need both: rules to guide us in the moment and consequences to evaluate systems and policies over time?

Choose Your Movie: THE SHEEP DETECTIVES vs HOKUM at Cinemark Stoneridge!
Join us as we get together to see your choice of two VERY different movies – one sweet and wholesome – the other a terrifying folklore horror! Option 1 is the fun whodunnit-action-comedy-mystery led by Hugh Jackman, THE SHEEP DETECTIVES! Option 2 is the top-reviewed supernatural-horror-thriller starring Adam Scott, HOKUM! Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event:
THE SHEEP DETECTIVES: Every night a shepherd reads aloud a murder mystery, pretending his sheep can understand. When he is found dead, the sheep realize at once that it was a murder and think they know everything about how to go about solving it. The film is directed by Kyle Balda and take a look at this ensemble cast: Hugh Jackman, Nicholas Braun, Molly Gordon, Hong Chau and Emma Thompson and the voices of Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bryan Cranston, Chris O'Dowd, Regina Hall, Patrick Stewart, Bella Ramsey, Brett Goldstein and Rhys Darby. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyZI5oM6hWk
HOKUM: In this film, a horror writer visits an Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes, unaware the property is said to be haunted by a witch. It is written/directed by Damian McCarthy stars Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh and Austin Amelio. Hokum premiered to rave reviews at this year’s SXSW Festival and is being release by Neon. It is earning a stellar 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which calls it, “A classic haunted house story enriched with atmospheric folklore and perfectly-timed shocks!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVCIK_MPyhc
PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet inside the theater lobby about 20 minutes before showtime. If the showtimes work out, we’ll try to get both groups together for a bite before the shows! Complete details and showtime will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer.
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
