THE ENTIRE WORKS OF LUDWIG WITTGENSTEIN
If you've had the intuition that most of our problems come from language misunderstandings, and you want to understand how our social context influences the mind and decision-making, read Wittgenstein.

Sally Rooney’s new book Intermezzo had a Wittgenstein epigraph. But don’t you feel grief now? “But aren’t you now playing chess?” just found a review that talks a bit abt it too https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/books/reviews/sally-rooney-intermezzo-book-review-b2614962.html#

it's couched in some very specialized questions about logic and language that were being discussed in the analytic philosophy world at the time wittgenstein was working and living, but this book really forces you to reflect on your own naive assumptions about how language and conversation work. do the work of reading it and the book will do its work on you in return. witty is also just an incredibly succinct and clear philosophical stylist. my dear homosexual 🐐

WORD-VOMIT ON “SOCIETY”🤓
at last i can use my degree 💌 Nietzsche's On the Genealogy of Morals and Beyond Good and Evil**** are interesting reads! Alternatively, in epistemology - WK Clifford, The Ethics of Belief and Rob Pasnau's Bias and Interpersonal Skepticism.

STILL WALKING BY HIROKAZU KORE-EDA
Beautiful film about how the contradictions and difficulties in our relationships with other people (friends, family, lovers, etc), are actually what we should feel the most blessed for. Told in a contemplative and picturesque way.
