I need an indoors hobby:
>not gaming
>not gooning
>can be done while listening to music (hard requirement)
>mostly a way to chill but has some creative element
>bonus points if doing it doesn't require much light
Things I've tried:
>writing - nobody would ever read my shit. I used to post long essays on 4chan but they were pretty much ignored
>drawing - I am comically bad at it because my fine motor skills are not fucking fine
>cooking - kinda cool but got bored of it
>gaming
>gooning

Where I'm getting at is that I love listening to music while cycling. It allows me to gather my thoughts to the rhythms of the music. Leg workout and constantly changing environment around me keep me from being bored. The problem is, sometimes I'm tired, or the weather is bad, or whatever, so I cannot go out. I want to replicate the feeling at home on those days.

Oh, I forgot to mention I like to put together Lego, but:
1. No creativity in following instructions, and building without instructions is something that adults lose their natural ability to do
2. I'm running out of space to put the sets on display
3. It's expensive

make youtube videos, most of it is editing and you'll be listening to music while doing that.

I've been studying CS for five years, and for another five I've been employed in software. I do not care about programming beyond my custom porn scraper.

why not just make music?
you only need a midi keyboard
DAWs, libraries and plug-ins are piss easy to pirate and if you're allergic to not getting robbed there's tons of free/abandonware stuff too

Download gimp and haunt /wsr/ and /wg/. You can practice photo editing skills and different art styles with no stress while chilling.

Painting/drawing is unironically very fulfilling and fun.
