hobby as central identity has always kinda weirded me out hobbies are things that I do, not things that I am (except in a practical, casual sense like "oh hey do you like reading?" "yeah, I'm a reader")

people are, to my taste, often far too eager to quickly and cheaply establish identity hobby as identity is bad, but not the worst consumerism as identity is worst ("weed consumption as identity" is the absolute nadir of this )
