is there anything i can do productively besides lifting and saving up money if i am in cocoon mode and not yet ready to pursue getting a GF for a few months?
i just end up playing video games and watching tv/movies. i mean that's what provides me with the most instant gratification but it still seems like i'm wasting my time, i just can't think of something more productive that is a solitary activity

Is this a joke question.
You're asking what you'll gain from knowledge.
Really.
Just FYI more knowledge makes you smarter and is the foundation for the development of wisdom.

Spanish is pretty common, but Korean is the new hotness.

Games workshop desu, gives you a reason to interact with people, and painting your army is really enjoyable
I know it's autistic as fuck, but seriously it's a great time
Warhammer 40k has a really cool universe too, and a lot of the ideas would appeal to robots I believe

You can also learn the Korean writing system in just one day. It's the simplest system in the world.

You mean JewWorkshop.

Not a bad idea actually, it is very autistic, and I never used to play, but I did enjoy simply painting the models, then I gave them to my friend who did play.

not all knowledge has value though.
for example, i took a european history elective class for a credit at uni 5 years ago. how many times have i used something i learned from over a hundred of hours of learning in that class?
>zero
