Taking the grill pill doesn't have to literally be grilling.
I have been doing west coast swing dancing, and will probably do more styles when I start my next job with a shorter commute.
Hell yeah. DM me if you want a link, I use a stage name so while I don't want to post it here, happy to chat privately.
finding the best joke to tell before my boyfriend orgasms so he can be disappointed in me
Baking bread and then rolling up to a picket line with 20 baguettes and feeding everyone for free.
Photography, specifically film photography. Super stoked my local community darkroom has reopened, although feeling more cautious with omicron now :sadness:
It’s wild how engrossing the darkroom process is, and how magical it feels to produce images without the use of a computer, as pretentious as that sounds! Dodging and burning to lighten or darken images are physical things (eg I wave my hands in front of the paper) rather than a slider in Lightroom…talking to people at the chemistry trays is a nice thing too.
thanks to the most recent technology connections video i learned what the weird little dodge/burn lollipop is in photoshop, and what it's for! Darkrooms are neat!
yeah!! It’s amazing how analogous photoshop is - for instance unsharp masks/layers are also a darkroom thing, often produced using ortho-litho film . It blows my mind that people figured these physical processes out back in the day!
I like to fish do yard work or garden. Might get into fitness idk see how long this no cigs thing lasts
I've been playing more tabletop games with friends
Apparently, I'm a really good Game Master
For me its been making bullets and shooting paper. Right now I'm getting ready to really work on my skill with the pistol, making a couple hundred rounds with the plan to go to the range every day for a week to practice.
I am the one true leftist and all I do is read theory. I have read every book by every person at least slightly left of fucking AOC. Fun and hobbies are inherently reactionary. In this 3 hour long video essay, I will...
In all seriousness I dont really have any hobbies besides gaming
I love cooking and finding new variations of old recipes. For instance, learning vegan substitutes. I have a word doc listing recipes I've done, recipes I've memorized, and recipes I want to learn.
It's such a cathartic task that lets me be creative without a profit motive and it's something that's largely for me. I think about what I like and focusing on meals I enjoy is a bit of self-care for me.
Also having a rich fantasy world I retreat into that is pretty fun.
Yeah actual literal grilling is great. If you don't have a grill regular cooking is great too.
Board games! All time favorites are probably Carcassonne, Catan, and Ligretto, but my most recent favorites are Root and Dominion, and I started a game of Windward which seems super fun but we had to end early.
Also drugs. Did acid again today, it’s neat.
