12 is a tough one. I was almost there, then that first debate fiasco happened, and I got pulled into the current thing. But it was so entertaining! Kicked me all the way back down to 10.

Yeah for sure. I hang around there once in a while but 1 is usually where I'm at. But sometimes 18.

I would've thought nihilism and absurdism would be adjacent, while stoicism would be the final stage.

Also both nihilism and absurdism could realistically lead into hedonism.

I guess I question stoicisms inclusion in the wheel entirely.

Existentialist/absurdist types say that stoicism ignores or suppresses genuine emotions and experiences which are necessary to living a full, authentic life. The Stoic aspires to be passionless, which is ultimately a denial of life. Absurdists embrace everything.

I think you could bounce back and forth between all four. Not so much a circle. Or they are all responses to nihilism. But then again, I guess everything is a response to nihilsm...

Not when the alternative is death. A "sterile" life as a form of self-preservation.

Yes, quite. The arrows are meaningless.
