What's the best language for a complete beginner to pick up and learn?
I'm able to read through sources in various languages and understand whats happening on a fundamental level.
I want to learn a language over the next 3~5 months and i cant make any informed desicions on which.
Suggest the language best suited to an entry level programmer.

Ruby.
Seriously, this is by far the most beginner friendly language while at the same time being powerful. It's very straight forward. you won't have to spend time being sodomized by declaration and types, you just do whatever shit you want straight off and it works. And if you by any reason want to learn something else after that, ruby will have given you a solid stepping stone for that.
If ruby were a car you'd have 2 components, Steering wheel and throttle. Your speed would be perfectly bound to the throttle, take your foot off it and you instantly stop. Everything else would be perfectly handeled behind the scenes, it would feel like the road was your slave, no, the world would be your slave. You'd just go out and laugh at all your neighbours scraping snow off their cars in -75°c. While your car would be snow free and shining with the light of the gods, just sit down in your comfortably warm car and the seat belt will fasten onto you, put your foot on the throttle(you wouldn't even need to turn the ignition key) and the car instantly starts to move without a sound. You still laugh as you leave the parking lot where your neigbours are still stuck with their primitive cars while your own cars caressing lips close around your cock and start to suck it while at the same time serving you breakfast.
