Read (or listen to) a book.
- Or both. I'm listening to Moby Dick right now.
- Why be present on social media if you are going to be antisocial?
  Have you ever thought about removing the stick?
  I'm certain that you will find life much more pleasant
I mean, I get it. But it's sad that folks have forgotten about simple shit like going outside, looking at plants, reading, drawing, thinking up puns, etc
- Device addiction... those are all low stimulation activities compared to the screen
- Here's a pun for you-
  Pun walks in a bar, kills 10 people
  Pun in, 10 dead
Make something, stop doomscrolling, do something with your time that will be lasting
Even if it's a scrapbook of anime stills or a crappy fanfiction, making ANYTHING is better than using only social media for entertainment
- Good idea! Starts opening my usually five Apps again
  
  like a dog returning to its vomit, the brainrotted repeat their mistakes
- we need more love for us shitty fanfiction writers! Its amazing how much time you can pass with writing...
Might as well play Oblivon for the fifth time
Have have too many videogames and a lot of overdue art projects. This never happens to me.
- Fire up game
  Title screen pops up
  Immediately decide that I actually don't want to play it after all
  Alt+F4; fire up another game
  Rinse and repeat
  I need a new addiction.
- I have over 300 games just on Steam.
  I don't feel like playing any of them. 😩
  
  Have you tried UFO 50 and/or Blue Prince?
Yeah but it’s Lemmy so you can check at least 6 apps that are all Lemmy
- Sometimes I switch Lemmy frontends to see different stuff after I finished looking through the main frontend.
  
  Try this one
  Full disclosure, I wrote this Lemmy frontend
Hey, shouldn't you really do laundry? Sort your shit into darks and lights and start with whichever is smaller to get the ball rolling.
- Don't listen to them, chuck everything into the machine and hope for the best!
  Life is to short to live in fear of color bleeding!
  
  use coagulants to avoid bleeding
- if your shit comes out in different colours, you should check a doctor
  
  Make sure to bring your shit with you.
This is a mystery to me. Since being a child I always had so mane projects to do and so little time. And now as an adult with children the whole thing is even a lot worse worse.
Last time I was bored must be decades ago.
Drink
Or take 'shrooms
- I bet you're great fun at parties!
Exercise and/or do a hobby
See if there is some place in your community that could use a volunteer. Research studies consistently find that volunteering with charities makes people feel happier. There's plenty of needs out there. One that might not be well known are Weed Warrior groups that work on removing invasive plants to make more room for natives. I find that kind of work really satisfying because there's an obvious visual of progress and success.
Nap time
