We should stop feeling guilty about "unproductive" hobbies.
Everything nowadays is about the "side hustle" or turning your passion into a brand. If you enjoy painting, people often ask if you have an Etsy shop. People often ask if you stream while you play video games. I believe we've lost the appeal of simply being awful at something or doing it for the sake of squandering time. I don't want to "monetise" my downtime. If I spend four hours building a Lego set or staring at a wall, I consider it a successful day if it makes me happy. Productivity is a statistic for the workplace, not for human life.
