God Is Dead & Other Things You’re Quoting Wrong

A funny crash course in Freud, Nietzsche and the people who argued with them

Start with Chapter 1 →
Cover of the course: a comic of Luiza sitting on a stack of books between Freud and a crowd of philosophers

It’s right for you if…

  • You’ve said “that’s so Freudian” out loud and prayed nobody asked a follow-up question.
  • Your For You page diagnosed you with three different attachment styles in one week, and you’d like a second opinion from someone who’s read an actual book.
  • You call everything “projection,” except when you’re doing it.
  • You know Freud had something to do with mothers, and that’s where both your knowledge and your comfort end.
  • You’ve quoted a philosopher in an Instagram caption and never checked if they actually said it. (They probably didn’t.)

It’s not for you if…

  • You’re looking for therapy. This isn’t it. We’re funny, but we’re not licensed, and if you’re going through something heavy, a real therapist beats a course every time.
  • You want a 600-page textbook with footnotes. Those exist, they’re in the library, and they’re the reason you’re here.
  • You think Freud was right about everything. Or wrong about everything. This course will annoy you both equally.
