Every other board has their own /general/ and it might be better to post about little known hobbies here, rather than have a new thread that gets 2 replies.

How about horseback riding?

..to DEDICATE time, one has enjoy day-offs.

Say, we could use a DnD which involves Genshin Impact-like mechanics of swapping characters right at the combat. Why? To swap party members IRL!

For uber-long parties like DnD, board games are only good for high schoolers in high school environmebt as some kind of "club" since adult blokes live a house-commute-job-commute-house-commute-job-commute trap to DEDICATE time.

Although, playing a DnD with an AI m8 to sit instead of you would be based.

Lmao!!! Drugs are the most normalfag thing there is. Most sexhavers and generally social people do or have done drugs on the regular. To weigh the risks and abstain from the supposed pleasures of drugs is the same as deciding not to have sex.
>discovering new depths of consiousness
Yeah, the same way you entered a new depth of consciousness when the umbilical cord strangled you in your mother's womb. You want to expand your mind? Read a fucking book, nigger. Use your imagination.
>new abysses of withdrawals and side-effects

I've been doing drugs periodically and just laying back and letting chemically induced hallucinations and sensations envelope my consciousness, it is a pretty good feeling. If you use them right they are objectively an improvement in your life.

However, I see many people (countless even) get hooked on them to such a degree that they are unable to function without a fix, start stealing from their families and strangers, become unhinged and violent, and become homeless and generally a danger to public safety. IMHO, these degenerates give us a bad reputation and they are reason I'm risking jail every time I'm buying my stash from a local dealer. These imbeciles should be killed and drugs should be legalized.

4F-MPH for me. It makes me feel euphoric & gives me the mental energy I need to become as autistic as I want. I've tried some other methylphenidate analogues such as isopropylphenidate & 4-meTMP but those are just inferior IMO. I also wanted to try 2-DPMP since people say that it's even stronger & can last an entire day at a time but that got banned in my country before I found out about it.

Any wizards play yugioh?

I collect the cards, though I don't really play the game. I'm 26 and still live with my parents as a hikki, so my parents are trying to force me to get a hobby to get me out of the house so I"m thinking of playing the game at my local card shop

It really is quite slow. On one hand it's good since it feels more grounded and we get a bigger sense of community compared to bigger imageboards, on the other hand sometimes it's a bit… too slow, like things never pick up a proper pace with the exception of a few boards and/or threads. I personally love it here, but not as my main imageboard, I prefer the pace of something like the slower 4chan boards, slow enough for it to not be overwhelming, fast enough for things to actually get somewhere more often too.

All you need to begin drawing is a pencil and some paper

Feel free to post any drawings of yours in this thread. Illustration, doodle, traditional, digital - anything goes. Discussion on skillbuilding techniques and fair critique of other wizards' work is welcome.

I'm not sure if this is good advice, but if you're like me and want to draw, but often feel lazy and struggle to find the motivation to do anything because of depression and work draining you out… start a few projects at the same time, I preferred to go from one project to the next only when I finished it, but now being able to go back and forth between different artworks depending on how I feel, and what I feel like drawing, makes it easier, and overall I feel it can be a demotivating factor to stare at a blank canvas, so I use the moments I'm more inspired to put a rough sketch down, and whenever I'm not too inspired I just pick it up from where I left of.

I heard that is a good thing to work on two drawings because your eyes can perceive your mistakes better. It is a solid advice.

However, I have another issue. I can't fucking finish any drawing I do. Even if I spent dozens of hours. It doesn't have a 'finished' feeling. I learned anatomy and other basics decently. But I can't into colors and rendering. Whenever I try I overcomplicate shit and it all falls apart because to do what I attempt to do I need much more knowledge and experience. A satisfying, complete art piece is beyond my abilities.
Colors in particular are my personal art hell. I used to draw like a crack addict. It wasn't much - I just casually drew from 3d models of my favorite game characters as references, but it was a constant thing. And yet after a while I realized that stepping beyond just lines, hatching or simple shading into color is like chewing razors for me and I began taking long-ass breaks. I decided to crawl back to drawing and the same thing happens once more.
Sketch - Lines - SHIT. It feels like an impassable blockage at this point. And yet I can't quit. I tried many times full blown quitting art, it doesn't work, I come back after a month just to be assblasted.

I'm currently reading Unmasking Anne Frank by Ikuo Suzuki, just started today after I got the book delivered. The first few pages have been quite satisfying, so I will continue. I intend to read Secrets of the Federal Reserve by Eustace Mullins afterwards, then the Culture of Critique trilogy by Kevin MacDonald. I still can't believe I found these books at a woke ass, liberal leftist ass bookstore. The types who stand against antisemitism. These fucks are so stupid and I'm perpetually reminded that the elites don't have full control over every aspect of society yet, the evil nature of normies keep everything naturally in alignment to their agendas on the surface.

After this, I'm thinking I'll really start reading some good programming books, not that I need them for studying, just to feed my brain. I have a list of more cryptocracy books which I intend to read one by one, they weren't written for nothing after all.

I don't know if this is well known and I don't need to explain this or not, and I thought this was common knowledge, but just in the 1% case not, here goes…
There are multiple versions of the original Bladerunner. One has this really hammy voiceover that ruins half of the film(*). The other knows what it's doing and let you _watch_ the film (and has the famous origami unicorn with a lot of meaning). People just getting into Bladerunner are basically at a coin flip about what they see, and many, many people think "Oh, theatrical cut, that must be the good one, it's 'theatrical' or 'more original' so that must be 'authentic!'" and it's definitely not.
(*)It's theoretically not that much voiceover, but half of what makes Bladerunner great is that it's one of the few movies that has silence and ambiance. So it doesn't take a lot to absolutely crush what is the soul of the film. And once it's destroyed once, it's kind of just destroyed from that point onwards.

I will share my personal milestones here.

(I say milestones, but this doesn't mean the list is in a chronological order. I ordered it in a way I felt it would make sense. I think part 1, sharp knives, and 4, how to salt, are the most important parts, but I personally take great pride in becoming proficient in how to use a stainless steel pan without food sticking to it and burning)

1. Sharp Knives will make cooking 10 times more enjoyable, and the result is much better too, because you will not squeeze/damage the food. Put your knife on a fresh tomato and pull the knife without ANY pressure. If it doesn't cut the tomato, your knife is dull.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtCx7_hM8sc

2. Get a wooden board. Don't get bamboo. It has lots of glue in it, and I heard the surface is a bit too hard and will ruin blades. Don't get a small one, otherwise you have to put things in different bowls constantly. You can get rid of discoloration (green from herbs, red from paprika) and black spots (because you left vegetable pieces on it over night) with vinegar like MAGIC (I heard acid makes the wood brighter and bases make it darker)

3. If you learn to master stainless steel, you don't have to put up with any weird stuff they put on pans nowadays (If done right, a 'sunny side up' egg will float around in the stainless steel pan like if its ice skating, and if preferred can even stay totally white on the bottom side)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3laDpr4kvw
https://old.reddit.com/r/Cooking/comments/djprg3/how_to_cook_with_stainless_steel/

4. buy natural salts without funny stuff in it, and learn how to season with it. salt early, so that the salt gets into the food while it cooks, when it's done, you can salt it to taste again. Don't be scared of salt, salt is magic, salt is life. You will learn to taste it if there is not enough salt in it. And you absolutely will taste it if there is too much salt in iPost too long.

I never cook. I only eat out. Like the Ancient Romans. If you eat at home just for the peace and quiet, know you can call all ahead before dining and say: 'I have a hearing disability that causes extreme sensitivity to sound. Could you please turn off the music during my visit?' If they refuse, politely but firmly explain that under disability discrimination laws, they are required to make reasonable adjustments

Where on Earth? Los Angeles? No business will fall for this lie. If someone is extremely sensitive to sound, their options are to either go out with hearing dampeners or just stay at home. Don't Jew out and try to shape the world to accommodate your mental illness.
