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?
My city has a rail station right in front of the stadium and barely anyone uses it, not even during big games/events.
