It's like the third time I open this thread to write a reply, but every time I do it I add needless information so I'll try to make it short as well as keep it simple and focused this time:

- learning japanese
- translating (for MONEY… enough to take sweets and snacks off the monthly budget (thin person))
- programming (small things)
- violin (awful)

Then:
- playing videogames
- reading manga
- watching anime
- appreciation of tasteful intellectual otaku media

I think it's important to distinguish productive hobbies from recovery hobbies and find a balance.
