No One can Assign My Purpose but Me Myself!

I'm bored.
I have no right to be bored; all the stuff I can do if I feel like it---video games (or at least 'whatever I can play with my desktop-computer on the Internet), commenting on myLot-posts, writing more posts like this one, going & research words on 'my' etymology-blog (i.e. the one that The Owners let me write on), looking-through my friends' social-posts (on Twitter, Facebook, NextDoor, LinkedIn, reddit, Truth Social, YouTube) & commenting on the ones that inspire me, posting my own social-posts, etc.-etc.
But not many of them have 'the dopamine-dose' that comes from "finishing an assignment (and maybe 'getting a good grade' on it ... hopefully translating to 'money for it,' but probably more-often shown in 'likes')."

So, what assignment do you think will get me the most likes/money/good-grades?

I think that you should write more here on Mylot. At least you might get some comments, and then be able to write back. You could also do something off line, like learning a musical instrument, like the guitar or flute. There are many YouTube videos that you can watch to learn how to play music, nowadays even for free! We don't have to be bored in the modern world anymore.!

@mythociate Thanks for finding my video, I played all the instruments, the photography, is the views outside my living room window on different days! Yes, the clouds in the valley, and the rainbow over the mountain. Actually that picture has been published in a children's Jewish prayerbook! I filmed myself with my laptop, and put the words of the poem so that students could follow along as I recited it.
