Hello Lainchan, I've recently moved away from my hardass, abusive, micromanaging, piece of soykaf aunt and uncle, and moved in with my grandmother, this has been an amazing shift in my life, because I'm actually able to *feel* happy. I'm also in the same house I grew up in, which is very nostalgic. Either way, even though I've finally managed to move away from my aunt and uncle, I'm finding it difficult to be productive. My uncle and aunt never let me have a computer or I'd be trying to program soykaf and customize linux to be overly efficient for more than half the day and that would fufill me (I'm typing this on mobile btw), but unfortunately I live 7 miles outside the closest town, and don't have a vehicle so getting a job to save up for a computer is not really an option right now. I'd love a way to earn money, but my only options are online, at the moment and without any outstanding skills the payout for anything I can find isn't really worth the amount of time I'd need to put into this. The house I'm in is less than clean, but motivation *to* clean is low, since before I moved in I had cleaned some parts of the house anyway and it never stayed the same long. We've currently cleaned the living room, and it's liveable. Ive tried once cleaning the room I've been sleeping in, but with the amount of soykaf that's been thrown in here it's almost impossible to keep it that way, currently I'm working on a solution on where to move these items. Basically I'm looking for a hobby, and any solution on a means to make money, to possibly myself a computer. Thanks for any advice, and I'm sorry that my thoughts and my writing are both disorganized. Lol

Guitar is a very easy instrument to start learning and can be found very cheap, though you will have to put in a lot of effort if you want to make a single cent. It is very rewarding and you can find lots of resources online. If you cant find a cheap laptop to buy used you could try and get a raspberry pi + monitor + keyboard if its possible.

>>16743 This is actually something I was already planning on pursuing, idk if my uncle will give me back my guitar, but the only things I need would be some new strings. Raspberry pie isn't a bad idea, I don't know why this didn't cross my mind before.

Are those uncleaned rooms unused space? As you describe living outside of a city, do you happen to have some outdoor property space aswell? Right now is the perfect timing to start raising crops indoors to be put outside in about a month in the northern hemisphere. If your are looking for a hobby and reasons to clean and give rooms a purpose, you may look into gardening of some degree. Walk to the local cemetery and collect plastic pots thrown away by people re-decorating the graves. Collect seeds from supermarket crops that may grow in your area in the coming months. Buy a single cheap tomatoe or paprica or pepper. They contain hundreds of fresh seeds. So you have almost free seeds and free pots and free space to grow. Look into collecting free rainwater aswell. For me personally it is an absolutely satisfying hobby that needs some creative problem solving as well as long term planning and finally a huge reward from plants that are a direct product of your own work. if you grow them properly, fully grown healthy plants are also worth good money if you take garden center prices as a reference. If you have the free space, grow hundreds of tomatoe plants from a single fresh tomatoe, then try to sell each plant for $3 in about 1 month to people around town.

>>16745 Definitely something I've thought about, I'm a little nervous because it's something I have 0 experience in. There's plenty of space and farmland to do it, so I'll start collecting seeds where I can and see how it goes. This could be a very interesting project.

>>16747 good thing is, you have nothing to lose but your own time and physical work you put into it if you really keep looting those public graveyards for plastic pots and collect your own rainwater. There are a lot of dedicated growing boards online as well, with people claiming "best practices" and some of them are useful advice, but in the end you just give nature a little hint where to start and that's it. Start in those rooms you described here. And put a raspberry camera for a timelapse onto it as well. Use the April month for it and expand outdoors after May 15th when the last cold ground is supposed to be definitely gone.

>>16744 If you need guidance for learning guitar justinguitar.com is almost universally praised

you can get a decent thinkpad for under 50 bucks, just sell something on ebay

It can't be that hard to procure a trashy computer for free or very little. It might be like a core 2 duo, or a sandy bridge cpu if your lucky.

What makes you feel really, really good? Whatever it is, base your hobby around that. For me it was music, so I started fiddling around with guitars, and now I really enjoy playing and composing music. For you it might be something else, but pursue it and it's likely to bring you a lot of satisfaction throughout your life. Oh, and good to hear that your life situation has improved. :3
