After work is done, and you don’t have any more chores to do, how do you spend your time? What makes up a “good day” for you?
Mostly an indoor cat reading, mostly sci-fi for fiction or philosophy for non fiction, or some TV or movies for entertainment. I like playing guitar and video games for hobbies. Mostly been playing with scales and learning to learn by ear lately more than learning songs and the ff tactics remake for gaming. Watching something live and texting with friends is fun, I get that’s a big part of why people engage in watching sports. If you’re not into that and want something similar mastodon does monsterdon Sundays at 8pm ct, https://wiki.neuromatch.social/Monsterdon this week is Hercules in new York https://timeloop.cafe/@Taweret/116471926408033540.
Gaming and reading I’ll do less consistently than guitar and TV or movies or some lectures or debate on yt, probably going to cut back a bit on gaming and reading for leisure soon as I’ll have an opportunity to learn to cook and spend more time outdoors and want to give those a fair time.

Hi, what is “Don’t have any more chores?!”
Fuck around with my computers and play video games. I also like to watch movies and read books. Also music, I’m a big audiophile.
Why is it so damn entertaining to fuck around with the computers? (Synology NAS with Docker in my case).
Does it help that I actually don’t work in a “hobbyist self-hosted” field?
Doing that and watching Anime/TV Shows/Movies takes a lot of time that I can’t really do other stuff that I used to love to do… Like gaming.
On off days, and evenings I like to spend time mostly at home. Reading, catching up on tv, video games. I do like the library.
Make music. I record and produce my own music in my home studio. I sometimes don’t realize I’ve been in there for hours until I need to pee.
That’s mine, too. Over the last year, I’ve been buying all kinds of super cheap used gear through auctions, Facebook marketplace, pawn shops, etc., and have built a really nice little home studio.
I just started playing Vampire Crawlers this weekend. I’m pretty much hooked. It’s based on Vampire Survivors, but it plays like a fast paced Slay the Spire.
If you’re familiar with Vampire Survivors, you know there’s going to be a lot of things to unlock, and you already know most of the weapon evolutions.
Read.
Hang out with partner or friend. That usually means reading, watching something, playing a game. Sometimes just lounging near each other.
Play video games.
Usually I work on my own open source projects.
There’s always stuff that needs repairing or maintenance around my rented apartment. I got an electric sander the other week which I used to make my >10 year old kitchen countertop and balcony furniture look brand new.
Right now I’m working on my mountain bike which I use to commute to work. I replaced the front chainring the other day to fix the chain slip which has been driving me nuts for months. Swapped out the chain and cassette while I was at it, and now I’m working on regreasing all the moving parts.
When I’m done with that I’ll descale and regrease all the internals on my espresso machine, since I haven’t done that in like a year. Then I got to fit actual chores like cooking, cleaning, haircuts and laundry in.Always something to do, but I enjoy learning how to do my own repairs and maintenance to stay somewhat independent, plus it helps me save money so I don’t have to work as much.
Video games, music, books, building plastic model kits, meeting friends occasionally…
Currently collecting ebooks and reading, philosophy and some fantasy fiction, Joe Abercrombie.
Books are dense for their entertainment value. 20gb is like 88k ebooks.
Nothing. I kinda wanna die but I gotta live and there’s no choice
Are you okay?
I have a crazy boot fetish, mainly riding boots. Put em on with some leather pants and abuse myself (sexually). Huff poppers while I do it. I NEVER get tired of it. It is so good. 10/10, highly recommended. A fetish is a gift.
Get stoned and play video games with my wife. We just found Unrailed 2 and it’s been a journey.
I do genealogy, meaning looking through church books and population lists to make biographies of my ancestors in the 18th century or so. That hobby takes up a lot of time.
I also like to go for walks, ID plants and stuff. Sometimes my girlfriend and me just go collecting trash in the nature around us.
I try to read a lot, mostly classical literature or political stuff.
I try to go to the gym two times a week and I am always up for a round of Frisbee in the park or a beer in the pub.
Occasionally I play video games, but more mini games and puzzles as serious gaming draws too much time.
So the perfect day involves a little research, a bit of sports, a big round outside and finishes with a visit to the theater or cinema!
