Please help me start my philosophical journey, where should I start, is there a good book order that will make me understand the content that there is in all of them better, or should I just read whatever I want

Op here again. In addition to the above, I’m also gay and I enjoy penis.

You should read Four Texts on Socrates to get the general spirit of philosophy
Then you should read a textbook on first order symbolic logic so you can think critically
Then you should just read whatever the fuck you feel like, looking up unknown terms and such on Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.

Whatever you do, don't feel obligated to start with the Greeks.
It's a stupid meme.
Do not view chronological order as having some special status among any other order in which you could explore a topic.

Begin with the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, if it is too hard, quit.

No point in even reading it because it solves all of philosophy and its boring as shit.
So no reason in even reading philosophy.
Thanks Ludwig. Saved us all immeasurable amounts of time.

Absolute pleb.

Goddamn, I hate Germans some times. I think it has to do with some collective mental state. They have something, they take it to it's logical end, and the middle can go fuck itself. Makes them real whiz kids in engineering but absolute bores in philosophy and jokes.

I wonder what actual logicians and mathematical logic specialists think of him.
I like to imagine them looking upon him as some gigantic schizo meme that is lost in his own fucking world but they don't care enough to comment on it.

They don't care enough. Most of his writings on logic is borders more on ontology, and when they don't, they are remarkably useless. Not wrong, but just... really useless. The whole point of the bracket method is to show that all classical principles are tautologies. Which you can do a hundred different ways, all easier than his.
