Do you even know how expensive it is to sleep these days?

For the price of two big studio games, you can buy yourself a pair of running shoes, DND dice, a few books, watercolor and paper, and have some money leftover. It's not that you can't afford it, it's that the way capitalism is designed makes you too exhausted to have a hobby.

For anyone interested in weird retro movies, the photo is from Valley of the Dolls, which I recommend.

I still prefer Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, but I'm a big Russ Meyer geek.

Foraging is free and you end up with really delicious free food (if you're careful, otherwise death).

It is indeed cool. Thank you.

If you (or any passerby) happens to like German hip hop, I can only recommend Pöbel MC.

for anyone looking for a cheap hobby, try coding, there are plenty of free resources to learn, and you can get started on almost any computer (or even an android phone!)

You may not want to hear this but if this describes you it simply means you're an uninteresting person.
