I hate scrolling but I hate my old hobbies too. I had several. Alternatively what are non-prestigious unsuccessful unprofitable talentless hobbies associated with losers I can pick up? Not joking, I hate doing any "talented" hobbies.

I'm not quite sure what it is you're looking for. Do you mean a hobby where it's not something you can get better at over time?

Anything that doesn't make me look smart or talented if I'm caught doing it.

Then you should pick a hobby that takes massive talent, you'll always look like a dumbass when you're constantly failing at it.

Constantly failing and being bad at a hobby is still inspirational black excellence and black girl magic. The only way to escape inspiration porn is suicide. Alternatively, failing is a result of being oppressed by the white man. I'm either a permanent victim or an inspirational story. I'd rather be a normal human who enjoys stuff like all the other normal people doing hobbies for fun.

Patronizing and infantilizing attention. The normal kind is fine but the only way I could be treated normally is if I pretend to be a white man. Otherwise I'm treated like a sick puppy learning how to walk. I hate it.
