Start with the Greeks.

Pick a subject first. Starting with the Greeks usually gives people an idea about the history of philosophy and the evolution of the questions being asked. If you have something specific in mind then maybe someone can give specific advice. If not, get yer ass to Miletus and start with dem muddafuggin Greeks.

Ironic shitposting is still shitposting

psychology by psychologist

eric berne

A lot of the good stuff sort of comes from reading and interpreting papers directly, but discussions and material on those papers can be equally great

Some of my favourites reads are Obedience to Authority (Milgram) and Beyond Freedom and Dignity (Skinner). They are a bit on the dated side, especially Skinner, since he was the last of the radical behaviourists and still had a locked-away view of cognition, but he paved the way for Bandura and his Triarchic theory, which was a great step into a nuanced point between the tensions of the medical model and the psychological/social models. Eysenck's work on memory and personality, Seligman on happiness and Dominic Murphy on the philosophy of delusions('Psychiatry in the scientific image' I think) are also great

Good. But only as good as you consider his prose

What do you think of this thread ?

>>8253082
Good. He was also aware of racial differences and despised immigration which made his writing better. "Niggerman" is a great name for a cat.

>>8253029
I get tired easily and it is not 1 hour of reading, it's taken me days. An easier book may take a matter of hours.

Start with a literary/existential problem that interests you and write the solution
