Because you do not get to determine what is a waste of time for other people because people all prioritize their time in a different manner and would not consider what they are doing a waste of time.

Ok, you seem upset. I’ll break this down: hobbies are not meant to be efficient or productive. They are something that the practitioner of the hobby does in their free time, for a wide variety of reasons. None of those reasons need to be “producing something”, or “being efficient”.

I don’t think the slightest bit of crap should be given to Jenner. She was paid to do a job. She did the job. The blame for this tone-deaf garbage should go to the creators. She didn’t write the fucking commercial, for christ’s sake.
