But actually I don’t feel too comfortable with that answer because it was the stuff that stuck with me - but isn’t necessarily what will stick for others. The goal should be to find what sticks for you. Follow one’s own curiosityhttps://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1040920485993705473?s=21 …

youtube.com/visakanv ( ❤️ if you subscribe!) @visakanvimo there's roughly 4 things to do - figure out how you were fucked up by your childhood, upbringing, etc and fix that - find good people that you'd like to spend your life with - follow your curiosity - laugh a lot https://twitter.com/novasnek/status/1040299193439580160 …Show this thread2 replies 0 retweets 5 likes -
Yep. There are probably *some* core books that just about everyone should read, but life is short and context matters a whole bunch — not just who you are, but who you are *right now*, what you already know & find yourself thinking about. Still... starting points!

Sort of, and individual taste/preferences are probably not completely irrelevant, but... some works really are particularly good at conveying concepts (a) clearly and (b) in a way that turns them into toys, rather than drab curiosities

To me it implies nothing more or less than that there are better and worse ways to explain things, ways that inspire new questions and ways that don't... or do so to a much reduced degree. And this probably depends a little bit on the person, but clustering can be expected
