Read the meditations and some supplemental info on rationalism. Stanford wiki is a good resource.

If you want to continue after you finish, read up on Hume's empiricism, is-ought distinction, bundle theory, problem of induction etc.

After you understand Descartes and Hume well enough, move on to Kant. Kant's political and moral philosophy are, in my opinion, absolute ass. That being said, his Epistemology is utterly and unquestionably brilliant. Read up on Synthetic/analytic apriori/aposteriori distinctions. Look at his political philosophy and morality if you must, but don't expect anything more than a fairy tale worldview.

After that you should be ready to tackle almost any modern philosophy. You'll still have to look up more obscure philosophers sometimes, and it wouldn't hurt to read some Plato and Aristotle, but you'll understand the vast majority of whats being discussed.

>Protip: don't be a faggot "Patrician," leave your ego at the door and look up summaries, youtube videos, etc. They help a lot.

And after you've read all of Descarte's philosophy, go read his letters wherein you will see his entire philosophical system was basically a bunch of bullshit he concocted to get the Jesuits to take his mathematics seriously.

Sasha Grey, lesbian vid. It's shit
>>
>>7700138
Start with the Discourse on the Method, gives a nice introduction to what he does later on in the Meditations and is a shorter and much more fun read. Then move on to the Meditations, Principles of Philosophy, Passions of the Soul, etc.
>>
Anything Sasha Grey is solid. Video name at least family?

He likes when you massage his feet. Then work up to the balls..
Does everybody go here for social validation before they pick up a fucking book?

If we had the link to the video of >>7703006 then we might know the answer to this question.
>>
>>7703006
This post is underrated to be honest family. I would love the 11 philosophy charts as well as the name/link to that video.

Just skip him.
>>
>>7700138
You skip Descartes and go straight to Spinoza. At least if you value your time.
>>
>>7710386
I think you typed Spinoza when you meant to type Leibniz
>>
>>7710386
really? the meditations and discourse are short af. you could read them in a day.

>>7710545
No one ever mentions Leibniz. It's a fucking sad world senpai.

Sasha Grey was a meme tier genre fiction author with no discernible talent. Which of her works is this gem from?
