I'd agree, but I think that's changing. Although I LOVE Childish Gambino's discography, I think he peaked with Awaken My Love in 2016... And honestly his writing/acting/producing on his TV show Atlanta is as good, if not better, than his musical work.

If he keeps it up, I genuinely think he'll be more revered in cinematography than he was in the music industry. Seriously, if you haven't checked out Atlanta, I cannot recommend it enough.

Absolutely epic piece, big fan of everything. Comes across as oddly vulnerable, 12/10

Stoicism adds the actionable structure that I think existentialist (and moreso with absurdist) philosophy lack.

I still need to read Meditations by Marcus Aurelius q_q

On a serious note, Watts'philosophy is hugely inspirational & wholesome, but he himself suffered from being a flakey father/husband and a lifelong alcoholic.

I listen to his talks regularly, especially when I need a dose of self-forgiveness, but anyone who sees him as a guru should know he certainly had his demons and quotes like the one above ought to be taken with a grain of salt.
