The Human & the Tortoise: A Mind-Bending Philosophy Comic

I made a comic!

For the first time ever.

A version of this essay was first published at HighExistence.


Refine The Mind is now on Patreon. For the cost of buying me a nice beer once every six months or so, you can become a patron and help to make sure the site continues to exist.



If this essay resonated, you'll enjoy my Dead Honest Newsletter, my list of Cage-Melting Books, and following me on on Facebook and Instagram.
