And people think working doesn’t inhibit creativity nor reading time. Ha!

Suffering builds character. The monks used to have a name for what sets in if you don't work.

I read more now while working full-time than I did as a NEET. That is to say, I currently read a moderate amount and when I was a NEET I read nothing at all.

Having set wagecucking hours forces me to schedule in my reading time, meaning I actually stick to it more often.

It also gives me more time to think about the books I'm reading while mindlessly going through the wagie motions

I've been at home cleaning, doing grocery shopping with a friend while sharing a fat one, reading for a couple hours and am about to take a 60 minute online course before I call it a day, get some food up in this bitch and start reading again. Because I'm not a loser who can't get a decent job.

I agree with this. When I'm not working I just waste entire days without doing anything. But it's easy to cram productivity into my off time.

reading 1-2 hours a day and writing 16-20h on weekends seems pretty ideal, what's your problem?

Casual sex and pornography go hand in hand. Switching one for the other means nothing. It's sign of further degeneration. Someone should focus on conquering themselves rather than finding replacing the form of release.
