I know what you mean. You need to learn it for the sake of learning it and not for building something.
Try the Racket beginners tutorial, its quite fun and only like 30 mins. the IDE (DrRacket) is so good for learning and it allows you to do pictures. -
CWins48117yTry something js really sucks at or can't do. It's easier to accept new tools if you can experience the advantages.

Same with me... I fucking love JS, and hence can't readily do anything in any other language, though I know it.!

Dacexi120367y@jamesharrington thing is I'm just so tired of JS. I don't feel motivated at all but I still code :/
-
Dacexi120367y@Sweenu I know python and use it sometimes but since I'm mostly a design / frontend guy python is much harder than js for that
-
@Dacexi something I do when I get bored is learn something new. Some good JS things to learn are "this", closures, event loop.
-
Dacexi120367y@jamesharrington Yeah i already know a lot of JS (basically everything relevant) since i've been working with it for like 6 years now :/
-
@Dacexi. Maybe learn some es6 or 7? Weakmaps and symbols are pretty interesting.

zshh38537yI started reading the official Rust tutorial and doing exercises from a book called “57 programming exercises” in Rust. Also coming from a JS background I find it really fun since there’s so many new concepts to consider.
