Any time I talk about my hobbies, I get told that I have too much free time on my hands, and/or that I should turn said hobbies into a job/business.
It's like people are so capitalism-brained that they can't fathom someone having a passion for the sake of the passion itself, and not making a commodity out of it.
Also the phrase "you have too much free time on your hands" as a backhanded insult. People seem to abhor the idea of someone spending their time doing things for themselves instead of working. Or am I reading too much into that?
"if you love what you do you'll never work a day in your life" yeah well nobody will pay me to sit in bed drinking beer all day so get fucked
yeah well nobody will pay me to sit in bed drinking beer all day
just get popular as a "just chatting" dork on twitch. ez clap
"just chatting" and it's just a stream of me falling asleep because the mornign beer was not a good idea
There are some vaguely lefty publishers that might bite but this will massively restrict your distribution.
Making money doesn't necessarily equates to capitalism, especially if you're your own boss
Don't worry, I make sure at least 50% of my hobbies are just consumerism in a trenchcoat. This keeps the other 50% pure.
Joke’s on you capitalism, my employment EULA prohibits me from making outside income!
