Creating meaning out of sheer boredom.
–
I’m Chris Khatsch, and Bored Absurdist is my personal blog.

I’m an artist, more or less; nonetheless, I seem to have excelled in the business world.
I run the operations of a consulting firm, where I lead a team of project managers, consultants, and facilitators delivering complex projects for government entities.
I am also the co-founder of Loor Lemon, a career and talent consultancy, where we help individuals build meaningful careers and help businesses find the right people who align with their objectives and fit their company culture.
I also run a private coaching practice, where I focus on burnout recovery and teaching individuals how to live creatively by showing them how they can become the authors of their own lives.
Alongside all of this, I write, paint, make music, and spend a lot of time reading hard books.
The questions I keep coming back to these days are:
What does it mean to remain human in a world where spirits are measured, judged, and governed by technology?
How can we live fully in a world that is constantly trying to make us more efficient, simpler, and more predictable?
This website is where I think through those questions.
Here, you’ll mostly find essays, reflections, stories, and observations on technology, work, philosophy, culture, and art. I also occasionally write about cigars and wine, mostly as a dilettante but always with great enthusiasm.
