Anyone got any fun hobbies/pastimes?
If you don't, consider picking one up. Little distractions are the best way to make it through life.
annihilating conservative ideologues is a hobby of mine
no i have about 5 hours of beats ive made iver the past two years but only an hour and a half or more is "good" but im bored of music
smoking is a great pastime but i decided to stop because id do it everyday even though it was only a few a day

Try woodworking or blade smithing, time consuming and satisfying as fuck.
I'm a music listener.
Yes, a lot of people listen to music but I am on another level.
I turned my career and passion into a hobby as well I suppose, at least I'm always improving. Vidya is pretty cool as well.

>making vidya
Are you me? I get big bursts of creativity where i want to do everything all at once and end up getting nothing done.
I take it you've considered making a comic before?
>>34598633
literally all i do is browse 4chan, play vidya, and occasionally watch animu.

>like making up a fantasy world but not writing a story/novel?
yeah. kind of. Its like you think up a fantasy world with stuff in it, and you go really deep into back story and details, to make the world almost seem real. Right now I'm working on a world for the video game I'm making. World progress is going alright, but progress on the actual game not so well.
>>34598633
I'm starting on a model railroad but still early on. It's fun but a little expensive.
>>34598744
Please explain how someone gets into smithing
>>34598844
Yeah I have, and writing a book too. I'm not experienced enough in the world of comics and graphic novels to really make one that is to my liking, so that's why I settled on a video game. Also, I've wanted to make a game for most of my life. It's kind of turned in a life goal that seems too big a project to finish.

How do you guys find hobbies? In the past I've taken interest in things such as playing the guitar/piano, learning a martial art, studying philosophy, etc but I didn't have the money and my mummy would just throw technology at me so I lost interest. So I guess m only hobbies now going on the internet and shit posting and this shit is fucking me up mentally. I need change

Same here, I picked up Unity because the world i built for my comic also works for a vidya. But I haven't worked on it since winter break, it's hard to jump back in.

Browse youtube.
You'll find a bunch of hobby channels and sometimes something will grab your interest enough for you to pursue it. Reddit is also your friend when it comes to really obscure hobbies.

Dirtbiking and I've been doing a checklist of local plants and animals during hikes while reading about the animals that I see
>>34598995
Generally I just take something I get really into and then try to make my own version of it.
>like playing vidya
make a video game
>like 4chan
make your own message board
>like anime
make cartoons
>like music
>try to make music, then put it into an album
This is how I find things I like to do I guess...
>free climbing
>hiking
>fishing
>>34598633
Try any outdoor activities. Walking, hiking, or bird watching. When you are feeling responsible, try shooting sports. OP related; a possum was in a steel trap on my property. I let my 10YO niece take the kill shot with a 22/45 Ruger. No EPM for my neighbors horses!

>killing opossums
Normally, i'd say fuck you, but since it's for the well being of your neighbor's horse, i'll allow it.
Opossums are a good animals.
I'm deving a game.
It feels really comfy and makes me feel productive.
I feel like shit if I spend my off days just watching anime or playing games.
I draw, and on long breaks, i vidya dev.
no
