Oof. A darker one.

Basically, absurdism is the belief that we live in a “absurd” world. Our existence is meaningless, there is no point to anything, and the universe obeys no laws.

It’s a little ironic because nihilism is essentially the same belief. There is no meaning to anything and it’s pointless to try to find it. But an absurdist follows the constant battle between us knowing there is no meaning, yet continuing to search for it anyway.

Existentialism is sort of the same, but states that we must find our own meaning.
