Can't.

Listened to a recent podcast which informed me that all I do as a MGTOW is sit in a basement playing video games making mom give me hot pockets and pizza rolls.

I'd hate to go against the trope.

Realistically, it's difficult to focus on so many abstract things. I would treat them as pre-requisites in order to get to the goal you're obsessed about. Find out what that goal is for you, and work on those pre-requisites, specifically Education, Career, $.

I should add, that friendship can be tricky in a world of drooling pussy-struck imbeciles. Don't be surprised to learn that most males who you've thought of as friends in the past are not much better than women: conniving, scummy pieces of human waste :) My point here is that it's OK to not have friends at all.

But hey, maybe I've gotten too jaded.

Fashion? As in the most durable clothing suitable for work and hobbies?

Health and Wealth, that's all I focus on.

Friendship

That's not something you pursue, you either find friends or you don't.

Fitness

I'm not bothering with this shit. Why should I? I'm happy being the physical shape I am.

Fashion

Hahahaha, wow. Why? What could I possibly gain from following arbitrary fashion trends? I'm pretty content buying myself my comfy clothes that don't cost me a leg and a liver because of their brand. They're 10 years out of fashion, probably, but who cares?

Education

Education is important, yes, specially if you have discipline enough to pursue knowledge by yourself. College is, for the most of the time, a costly scam, and a degree shouldn't be mistaken for being educated.

Career

Should I work 80 hours/week to build a career? No. Fuck that. I'm happy with my current job, and if I ever lose it, I can live with what I have before searching for another one.

Money

If you focus on money, you'll get consumed by it. Look at Elon Musk, a stupid billionaire who's simping hard for a whore. Money buys you a lot of things, but it also make you a slave to it: if you ever lose it, then you'll feel deeply depressed and ashamed of yourself.

House/Place

Home is whatever place you feel like home. You don't need a nice home for it to be cozy, SPECIALLY IF YOU'RE ALONE, because then you make it the way YOU want it. And no one will nag you for the house "not being big enough".
