How do NEETs afford for their hobby? Is it a combination of parents money and the person's autism check?

I didn't notice the body pillow until you pointed it out. Isn't that character like, canonically (and aesthetically) 12 years old?
She's canonically over 100, but more importantly is the fact that the pillow is not lewd, the other side is just her eating a crape.
Yeah, but you're still going to cut a hole in it aren't you.

Anyways, did you go by yourself or with friends?
With friends. Friend from high school, her boyfriend who's a friend from college, her sister who's an acquaintance from high school and college, two friends from college and an acquaintance from college. All crammed into my family's van. The drive up to and down from Toronto was both nice and hell, what with there being so much to talk about, but half of us are fat and we had to rotate people every time we stopped to gas up. Lucky for me I was the driver, never had to sit in the back.

She's from Miss Kobayashi's dragon maid, right? I know some of the characters are supposed to be ancient, but I remember her being like a runaway orphan girl.
She ran away from home because her parents don't really care about her, went to see what her friend was doing and ended up effectively adopted by the protagonist.

I think it's a split between mooching of parents and welfare. It's not hard to get away with welfare fraud, if high school flunk outs who are too lazy to be bothered but otherwise capable can do it, anyone can, since anyone below that probably qualifies anyway.

I think you're missing the point. The point being that she's literally the child of the show. I'd usually ask how you sleep at night, but I think I already know all too well...

You don't see that as problematic? You think people who enjoy your hobby fund it through a combination of mooching and welfare fraud, and your only comment is how easy it is to scam the government. I was trying not to be judgemental, but a seriously shocking portrait of your character is being painted here. Just out of sheer curiosity, how do you fund your hobby? I wouldn't be asking if you didn't mention the above.

You couldn't have missed the point harder if you tried.

Most otaku aren't actually NEETs, it's more a meme then thing. There are some, and that's a problem, but it's overblown.
