    The best thing about this website is being able to say I'm a furry and just deleting my account if people think I'm weird

    I used to do it a lot more, but I really like learning accents. Maybe you'd call it a subset of my interest in language and lingusitics. I love when I learn a new sound and how it works in the mouth, like the "ɬ" in Nahuatl or the "ɖ" and "ɖʱ" sounds in Hindi. Or the moments of gestalt where you learn how a whole way of talking sits in the mouth, what the neutral position is, where the sound tends to resonate. It's just a lot of fun.

      Another!

      IDK that I'd call it a hobby but I occasionally fall down wiki holes and spend an hour practicing an accent, a voice, sometimes non-speech stuff like gestures or poses. Something about figuring out all the little nuances of controlling my body is fascinating.

    I've been working on an open problem in combinatorial graph theory for about 3 years now, not sure if that counts as a hobby but it's my biggest passtime asides from videogames.

    I've started collecting Soviet microphones

    I don't even do a ton of recording, I play music but I don't have a good space. And still the boxes from Ukraine and Belarus keep coming

      Has the war made it a pain in the ass to buy Soviet ephemera?

      Edit: Not trying to put treats over people's lives being affected by a war, just genuinely curious.

        Not as bad as you might think. The main thing is that all of the Russian ebay and reverb sellers are gone, and I would expect there are fewer Ukrainian sellers too. Pre-war I bought a bunch of Soviet camera lenses and a lot of those sellers were Russian, and I'd expect that to be the case with mics too (more even, since Soviet lenses were largely produced in Ukraine but microphones were made in Russia). So I think the pickings are slimmer. I didn't really get into this until after the war started so my sense is that prices are higher now too but I can't really confirm.

        There does seem to be a bunch of stuff out there still though. Of course I'm looking for mics that are tested and can actually be used, which limits my options a lot - lots of ephemera dealers just throw stuff online without seeing whether or not it works, but I'm not looking for props or decoration. It seems like there's plenty of that stuff.

        Shipping times didn't seem very badly affected, surprisingly. Express mail service between Belarus and Colombia has closed down so I had to route some things through the United States - I don't know why Belarus can still ship things to the United States, but it can. I got some mics from a guy in Kryvyi Rih, which is pretty close to the southern front, and they spent as much time in Colombian customs as they did in transit.

    Chinese tea ceremony and obscure Christian heresies like the Sethians. I guess you could say religion in general but mostly obscure Gnostic groups.
