The Happy Nihilist's Bedside Reader

Welcome to the first of an occasional series of philosophical fiction from the Stand Up Philosophers - This compendium of 5 science fiction and fantasy articles is a light read ideal for bedtime or a few moments escape from the mundanity of real life during your lunch break or when commuting on the bus or train. We also have a nihilist jokes section with setups starting like: What did the Nihilist Protestor have on his T-shirt? or What do you call a boomerang that won’t come back? Philosophy doesn't have to be hard work, boring or lacking in entertainment; the vast mindscapes that arise from science fiction and fantasy settings make the genre ideal for philosophical examinations, with that in mind, we hope you enjoy!
