Drawing/piano are two hobbies I've agonized over since early high school. Both are the only means I can think of that could help me properly express myself, or at least give me the brain-coolant I so desperately need to continue functioning.
Piano specifically is nothing but blackpill after blackpill. As a guy with a fucked up back/arms from years of neanderthal autism posture + stupid job giving me arthritis, I'll never be able to play the piano at a master level. I feel like there's no point in even continuing.
Drawing is something where there's very little joy in learning the fundamentals, and of course not being very smart or blessed with visual memory kills most of my motivation to draw anything at all.
Every other hobby is either an extension of the two, or a boring waste of time.

I don't even know what I want to learn now.

Thanks for the blog

Sorry it wasn't something more interesting, like a race war thread or a blog detailing some random college sexcapade

 No.226397

yeah, i don't know what the point of these threads even is tbh. you suck at your hobbies? so try harder or give up, it's really not that complicated. anything worthwhile in life takes effort and perseverance, crying about not having everything handed to you is useless and a waste of time.

also, there's a million hobbies that are available to you and i doubt that the two random things you attached yourself to when you were a teenager are all that you can possibly be interested in. cast a wide net and explore outside your comfort zone. maybe try a hobby that isn't skill-based.

Turning a hobby into aspirational work instead of a way to simply pass the time in a somewhat active manner is a recipe for instant depression.

My hobby is pirating video games. Do you think I ever feel jealous of those Russians with massive seedboxes? No, because it's not a competition.

Life just sucks if you don't see the novelty in any activity that you do, it's hard to deal with if you're not a zombie normie drone but there isn't much you can do about it. Motivation is much more important to succeed in something than intelligence, I used to be very very good at competing at a certain game but a few months ago I came to the realization that videogames are a waste of time and it's all about repetition and muscle memory so there's no merit in doing something anybody can do by just grinding. After this epiphany I couldn't be good at the game anymore, not that I give a shit now.

>>226401
How is that a hobby? I pirate games all day and I wouldn't call that a hobby, just a distraction to deal with boredom.

when i was a teen that was sorta my hobby. i would collect 1980s-90s abandonware games from The Underdogs covering every war and historical period. But I wouldn't play much, as complex strategy games are more fun to think about than to do. so i guess me too collecting in itself was the hobby.

Some people are just wired differently and can't be helped. Sometimes the only solution is escaping this world

If gooning to pornography is a hobby complete with its own community and OC then literally anything can be called a hobby.

Random shitty advice: grab a synth, not a piano

put it near your bed

play it! Or, if you still can't, just sequence a silly beat to play on loop, and use it as your background music of "u tried" vibe.

gooning to pornography is not a hobby lol, drawing pornography might be since it requires a creative effort but masturbation is just a normal activity in humans and monkeys.

Wait..what?
Do men actually put time and effort into how to properly fuck their hand?

I spent 7 years of suicidal depression realizing I'd never be Vladimir Horowitz

It's better to be the best player you can be if you care about the music in and of itself. Otherwise if you want the fame, respect, etc., just do something else because even among people trained from 2 years old with pianists as parents don't become great, legendary players OR EVEN CONCERT PIANISTS AT ALL.

Do what you're good at, improv or composition or whatever your strength is, play that and focus on other skills as well, but capitalize on your unique talents

Godspeed. Vlad rots nonetheless, even as a legend.

I don't know why you want to reach master level rather than just learning to play your favorite anime songs. Are you this motivated to reach master level in other areas? Maybe you could become a master stock trader and all of a sudden be looked at as an endearing quirky guy, I mean if you made 50 million dollars from stocks your autism would be perceived as eccentric genius.

Wha? Without proper technique you may accidentally end up fingering yourself, not fapping

 No.226568

>>226546
that’s not supposed to ever happen
you’re just projecting on other wizards that you accidentally did that when fapping and that it was perfectly normal

Maybe try cheesemaking. Starting with something like a cheddar then moving onto brie or whatever you like.
Or making cider/wine/beer.

Those aren't hobbies of yours then. Some people have bad motorics, like myself, e.g. awkward.


>Both are the only means I can think of that could help me properly express myself, or at least give me the brain-coolant I so desperately need to continue functioning.



Try synth software.
Try making grim 80s synthwave…

OR

Try harmonica.
1880s Wild West vibe songs.

Do exercises to fix your back posture and hand posture for different piano and your hand size, wikihow have cool ones. You dont need much more like a mirror and know how you sit, watch tv-phone-read book and talk and do a job stand.
This can be fixed.
>Also
Or try another instrument or try digital ones. Music theory is a door to another dimension that people without it, know less.
>Drawing is something where there's very little joy in learning the fundamentals, and of course not being very smart or blessed with visual memory kills most of my motivation to draw anything at all.
Maybe aphantasia, you can train a little the visualization skills by visualizing sexual escenes (no joking) later neutral things and later geometrical math things.
Or you can grab things and try to turn around like a 3D model in your mind trying to know how it look behind.
Architects do this and some of them have aphantasia.
>Also
You can use games like sims 1,2,3,4 or blender to train this.
>Also
You can get into photography, this thing enchance a lot draw and perspective.
>Every other hobby is either an extension of the two, or a boring waste of time.
People that are genius or have talent in hobbies enjoy it, you dont need to force yourself to hurt yourself, its not a competence. Or you want to be the next rennainsenance man like da'vinci or a french intelectual of the illustration or a japanese-chinese kid forced by parents every single day to the same activity to achieve mastering?
Do it often, repeat, this's the way to skillful.
