Writing. Drawing. Painting. Sculpting. In general, the delay between the effort necessary to make the art and any sort of attentional award is decoupling.

So, in these things listed, the difference is that they are 'attention sucking, [delayed] dopamine delivery systems' for you (certainly not for everyone). i suppose that is very very slightly different;

But have you considered that you may have failed the first criteria, something that you like? People who actually like these things tend to get a dopamine hit by doing them rather than just by finishing them...
