I watch anime, movies, tv. I cook too. I also enjoy video games but I've been playing them less and less. I guess I spend about 40% of my free time shitposting on 4chan, 50% watching anime or movies or whatever, and about 10% actually reading or writing. Its not that I enjoy one over the other, its just that reading requires a lot more effort than getting drunk and watching an anime about a bunch of middle school girls lezzing out. I would love if I could read all the time but after about 2-3 hours I get exhausted and I have to put the book down. I'm seeing alot of people here watch anime so I guess I'm also wondering what's /lit/'s favorite anime?. Otherwise can anyone else relate? I'm sure there are more like me out in the world.

>>8463367
Is that Al Swearengen?

Weightlifting
Playing music
Listening to music
Composing elaborate letters to my ex girlfriends in my head as I run stupid long distances listening to shoegaze and trying to think of reasons to keep being alive

>>8463367
Games, movies, fencing, guitar.

>>8463367
Podcasts I guess. I play tetris and listen to them or audiobooks. I'm also learning to drive and going to therapy. Therapy is kind of a hobby if you make it fun.

Viva vox legis is the saying Robespierre had for judges and the Imperium is fascist, that's the point.
I was also reading Ernest Junger at the time, who had one.

I used to be a musician, gotta get back into it. Play guitar, piano and bass. Want to get some production software and a midi keyboard so I can get back into music.
I just bought an xbox 360, so I guess there is that.
Mainly I just smoke weed, pop pills and chill with the homies, watch movies/tv. Pretty comfy but unfulfilling desu gotta get back into music.

Judo
Muay Thai
Playing cards
Board games
Listening to music
Watching film

Sometimes playing video games

I dont write literature tho, I dont think I have enough brain for that

I make songs from time to time, watch movies and very rarely draw, thats pretty much it because I dont like anything else and being a depressive bipolar failure takes away most of my time and the best of me.

I used to be better at the ones that involve creating

make friends with someone with a rope and get up something tall! those shoes are okay for gym beaters, but i was between pairs if mythos, so they were all i had. and chalk isn't as heavily used on multipitch climbing as it is bouldering (especially on something as easy as snake dike). maybe a dip right as i set off from the belay or right before the crux, but you're not chalked up all the way to the elbows.

Unfortunately I have no horses. When I was growing up my mother had me take lessons for a few years, and though I loved it, I haven't had the opportunity to ride for a while. I have land however, and I plan to buy horses in the next 2-3 years when I'm financially secure enough.

As for tea, I had bai mudan white this morning, and I plan to enjoy some Longjing gong cha in the evening.

Otherwise I mostly play video games and watch movies.
Just started buckling down on actually learning to play guitar after picking it up and dropping it shortly thereafter several times over the years.

I collect butterflies and other insects, go bird watching at a somewhat amateur level, enjoy listening to pre-modern early music, mainly Medieval and Rennaissance polyphony.

I also like to go paintballing, which I suppose clashes with the above.

Programming and reading non-fiction.

Listen to music, bowl, school, some programming, film.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the complicated systems them gooks have for it.

>>8467382
I've just gotten into all this myself. Any suggested resources for information on black teas (that's all I really drink, besides mixtures of chamomile to help me sleep)? I've found some good stuff, but I'd be keen to hear from you.

Also, how do you feel about using a gaiwan for black teas? I've found conflicting opinions, some saying not to use one, others saying it's fine.

>>8467405
o no i'm a belp

>>8467406
You fucker, stop hammering the update button.

Tea is definitely a hobby though, especially if you want to get into how the gooks do it.

Try making some of your own tea sometime, it's oddly cathartic.

>>8463367
crying

I learn languages, translate literature, and complete word squares.

>>8467393
Not him, but i don't like using gaiwans for anything that's broken or small leaf, as it's much easier for it to overbrew and it's hard to strain compared to an infuser.

Philosophy, anime, music, cinema, tenns

Making and listening to music, and fantasizing about headlining for your favorite underground musicians that you secretly have weird romantic feelings for even though you're not gay and imagining them being really impressed by your mediocre music and inviting you backstage to talk and you both realize that you're able to understand each other on a level that transcends any traditional notions of friendship or love and secretly have a quasi-romantic affair with them based around your mutual love of music and philosophy while still heavily maintaining your masculine heterosexuality.

My favorites are Mushishi and Hibike btw.

Hiking, playing chess, ingesting psychedelic and dissociative hallucinogens, growing cacti and succulents, clubbing, swimming, weightlifting.

I like anime and I'm in my mid 30s. I've been watching it since the mid 90s when I was in high school when I lived in s. korea (over there it wasn't anime...it was all the cartoons we had).

I exercise, play guitar, watch movies with my gal. I work over 40 hours a week so outside of reading I don't have much time for anything else. I only read about 30 minutes to an hour before bed and sometimes in the morning for about 15-20 minutes.

What's the most /lit/erary hobby that isn't related to literature

Hard mode: not related to art at all

>>8468410
hiking

playing an instrument

painting

being a history buff

charity work

taking care of a dog or cat.

Nothing. If you are really reading lit, you'll realize that in life you only have time for lit, your primary trade, and one other (social life, healthy sleep, third thing that kills the previous two)

well i don't necessarily get to accomplish all of that in a single day. for example if i'm watching an anime i typically won't watch any films until i've finished the series. i also rarely visit museums, as much as i enjoy them.

i also have the luxury of being able to read on the job without risk of any punishment

play squash, part-time food critic, part of an art collective, do a decent amount of drugs and psychedelics. need something new to get into though

I go to music lessons once a week.
Thinking about dropping because I'm shit. Plus the teaches want us to play a piece in public at the end of the year and there is not enough Xanax to make me play in public. I've been practicing but I can't even play the piece, even if it is supposed "easy" as fuck.

Sometimes I watch a movie.


I used to play videogames, but not anymore. Recently I've been thinking about playing Metal Gear Solid 3, since I played 1 and 2 many years ago.
