Merchandise

Four items. Endlessly unavailable.

Each object is designed to remove a preference, not satisfy one. Consumerism, but Stoic. Which is to say: none of it ships.

Item 001 · Final Edition

A Preferred Indifferent.

(A rock. Seneca's term. Same object.)

Weight: sufficient. Color: rock. In Stoic ethics, an object like this is a proēgmenon — preferred, but not required for virtue. You may want it. You must not need it. Which is convenient, because you cannot have it. It is out of stock.

Restock date: no. Waitlist: no. Returns: not applicable, since nothing left the warehouse.

The Epictetus Sandbox.

A box. Of dirt.

Literally a small wooden box containing soil. To remind you that you are dust, and your quarterly targets are also dust. Comes with no instructions, because instructions imply an outcome.

Item 004 · Final edition

Virtue Coin.

"Is this in my control?" On both sides.

A brass coin. Flip it when in doubt. Both sides read: IS THIS IN MY CONTROL? The answer is always no. The coin is heavy enough to remind you it exists, light enough to lose without grief.
