What are some /lit/ hobbies? I've tried writing but I'm just beyond terrible and practicing is not making me any better.

I've also tried piano but it's mindnumpingly tedious. I've tried photography and got pretty good at it but it's not fulfilling and I don't touch my camera anymore. I've tried programming but it's not very /lit/ and extremely difficult.

Having lots of disparate hobbies that you engage with sporadically on a whim and eventually becoming aware of the underlying thread of similarity before sincerely embarking on achieving a synthesis between it all.

I rock climb and weightlift, play video games, text and spend time with friends, talk to my grandma a lot, outdoors stuff is good for the soul.

When I do read its usually in phases. I broke up with a girlfriend when I was getting into Hegel because I wasn't able to spend enough time with his works.

If I'm not reading a book I inevitably feel compelled to browse through websites or wikipedia articles perusing a variety of information.

I do a lot of pacing, thinking, just lying in bed but those are more symptoms of a disorder rather than hobbies, but they do take up time.

Modern politics is a joke. You can't engage with leftists without the conversation revolving around gender spectrum or sexuality justice. You can't engage with the right without pure Operation Mockingbird fueled hatred of communism.

Solitary living is the best and happiest way I've lived. I don't think that's a unique or controversial view.

You don't get better at writing by practice. You get better by telling stories, arguing, or explaining shit to other people.

Watching films, listening to music, hiking, drawing, getting stoned, bird watching, meditating, spending time with friends and conversing, posting on 4chan and forums, astronomy, maybe playing videogames if they're good ones.

That's because you're finding the worst examples of both groups and take your information and politics from youtube channels. Talk to an actual human being holy shit.
