You keep veering off into things.

People love baked things, give it a shot if you have the means.

Could turn into a vocation, it's easier than to learn than a guitar or other things you've tried.

You could be good at it who knows.

I'm realizing that intellectual art is way too subjective for it to stick to people in the setting I show it to people. People generally don't care for it because it mostly does not hit their taste, unlike a food item which will mostly hit their taste

I'm not going to bite on that one.

*Pun intended*
 
It's not going to be cheaper to make chocolate unless you already have everything you need (basic stuff like a double boiler, candy thermometer, and molds) unless you plan on making higher quality chocolate which could possibly be cheaper than the equivalent store bought product.

I've made white chocolate (and some dark) before, but the raw ingredients (cacao powder, cocoa butter, sugar, vanilla, and in my case soy milk powder for vegan chocolate) ended up being more expensive buying bars of chocolate would have been.

On the other hand, I did enjoy making the chocolate and it turned out well on the second try... learned I had to really control the temperature precisely from the first batch/attempt. I need to get more supplies and try making more and different types, though.

I don't see this working. Fk, at least I'm happy forum posting and listening to music
 
buy the chocolate as you can't beat professional production, but do try baking shit.

Actually trying and finding some hobby is a good first step. Cooking takes almost no dedication too, just follow recipes and get experience so you get better at it, it's not like musical instruments.
Forum shitposting just spirals you into increasingly worse lack of motivation.

Is tablet use not a hobby?
 
Would be more motivated to go to the day program, but I first need to get over my hatred for the ill
 
No, no, no.

What you need to do is build a bar, with your own hands. Find a place to set up, get a liquor license and then start creating.

Use your own two hands to build the best wine & spirits server on the East Coas,.. no WORLD.
