DNF... kinda. Our course finished the Meditations and went over a few objections. I don't feel motivated to finish the other objections. I have no idea how the philosopher with the most notorious quote in philosophy proceeds to write prose which was basically an almost indecipherable slog to go through. I thought it was just me being dumb at first, but then Hobbes' objections were breeze to read.
Outside of the writing style, there was not a lot I agreed on. Not even "ego sum, ego existo". The saving grace is that it's facilitative for philosophical/class discussion.

Surprisingly readable, though I disagree with a lot of what was said. I'm going to have to have a deep think about this and figure out how to accurately justify my critique. Maybe I just misunderstood some things, I'll see once we'll discuss it at uni.
