anime was right posted:american culture, perpetuated by protestant "values," makes identity and self-realization heavily intertwined with the sort of work you do, your job title, and your income and serves as arguably the most important hierarchy in social status. because we aren't given the room to create a sense of self independent of work, people become lost the instant they aren't working. it's not just people being unable to retire or falling apart after they do, it's probably the largest root cause of why young men are thrashing out and becoming right wing idiots, because our patriarchal society's identity and placement of a man is pretty much "job and wife" and no one can actually get the job part of this, so the only thing they cling onto is the entitlement and feeling of self-fulfillment that a wife would give them, and when they can't get that because women are like "hm maybe i dont want to marry a person that would beat me how about some like, standards or something" men individually cannot fathom a different world. without work, or even "good" work, people in america just fall the gently caress apart because when you make everything in american society about work, it's only going to function if people can! A good post.

Plenty I'd like to do but I am exhausted after work. Easy to be a passive consumer in a consumer economy.

I went to a brewery once where the owner/founder was doing all the tours. He showed us all his brewpots and bottling machines and so on and so forth and someone asked him how he got started and he was like "I did homebrew as a hobby, and I kept buying stuff, and eventually I had to open a brewery to justify the expense" mf just kept buying bigger and bigger metal tanks until suddenly he was a business owner

get into sports betting or poker. Poker is more fun cause you can head to the casino and rinse some loving douchebag grandpa wearing a vietnam war hat. Stupid gently caress lost twice.

thrifting is a cheap, fun & easy hobby, and you can even make money at it if you're industrious enough to resell online (I'm not). Plus it's good for the environment. learning to cook basic stuff is cheap, fun & easy. Same with growing food if you have access to a garden or a community plot. libraries have tools to loan out for hobbies; chicago has a gigantic tool library. many libraries have museum passes for free or discounted visits.
