Whats up /sci/ how are all of you today?
This is my first time on this side of 4chan so I do apologize if my post is out of place.
I wanted to ask some of you if you would have some idea where I could start to learn about physics and astrophysics.
Recently became interested in it and thought it might help fill out my days.
So any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks guys.

Just follow standard university physics curriculum

But is there any specific books I could start with and where should I start with math?
bump me up inside

Well Mit OpenCourseware is a start, but can be a bit difficult to navigate at times, and is also incomplete in certain areas as you won't really find a complete course with everything you need occasionally however they provide some useful college textbook recommendations that can be easily found on Amazon. Also you should be aware of the preliminaries surrounding astrophysics and physics being atleast a fundemental knowledge of multifvariable and single variable calculus and of course the rudimentary high school education.
I heard Halliday is a good place to start for intro physics if you know precalculus and intro calculus.
University Physics with Modern Physics - Young and Freedman
Elementary Calculus - Keisler
Matrices and Linear Algebra- Schneider Barker
Start with those

don't be a nigger with these for-profit mass produced textbooks
Halliday for Intro Physics
Knisley for Intro Calculus
David Lay for Linear Algebra
enjoy being STEM master race

Hopefully OP is still lurking
I found this to be useful for undergrad physics:
