By commercialism, I’m aiming at a mix of spending a lot and sifting through bloated business models (e.g. this or that accessory/equipment, microtransactions, etc.). Feel like many can relate to this sort of commercial fatigue, and yet it creeps even into hobbies where one tries to unwind.

Lately I’ve picked up reading more again, as thanks to libraries I’m able to do just that, but I’m wondering what some other, less obvious options* might be.

This is mainly for the going outside, walking folks. I enjoy a good walk from time to time, but I’m interested in activities that are a little less obvious.

    Learning card magic. You can go a long way with just a pack of cards and the 52Kards YouTube channel

    I’ll have to give that a look! I’ve been trying to get better at some different card shuffles, as it’s both practical and fun to do.

      Just be careful to learn card magic and not magic cards. Because one of those is not good for minimizing your consumption haha
