Boredom Relief

[Neverbell]

Despite having the internet at our disposals, quarantine in all its dreariness can make you bummed out and just flat out bored with everything. So, to combat this, let’s share things that we’re passionate about so everyone else can give them a try to relieve said boredom.

This includes but is not limited to:

• Movies
• TV/Streaming shows
• Video games
• Books & Comics
• Hobbies
  ​

Remember not to judge or bully others for their answers. Now, share!

I've got a couple things! I recently picked back up anime after a break during college and I have definitely watched more than I care to admit :P I have also started working on my videography/cinematography in the hopes and plans to work a mini-documentary about my town!

i've been playing persona 5 royal and getting into the endgame now, overall though i recommend it as the definitive edition to persona 5. most of my free time is taken up with that hahaha

some other stuff:

- writing, i've been working on my fanfic and i write short stories of my characters as well
- drawing, i got clip studio paint recently and i've been having a ton of fun with it
- anime, i checked out evangelion and haven't finished it yet but i'm near the end, i enjoy it, not really my favorite anime as it is others but i can appreciate it
- youtube, i haven't watched as much lately but i always go to the usual channels. i recommend unus annus if anyone likes markiplier and i've been enjoying jenna marbles and pewdiepie as well

Really happy to see all the responses! I kinda forgot about this thread tbh, but I thought I’d share what I’ve been up to.

In terms of movies, I recently watched Forrest Gump for the first time (I know I know) and I’m currently working through Kill Bill. I love Tarantino but I have to take most of his movies in parts because they can get quite intense.

for TV shows I’ve been watching Community on repeat since it’s my comfort show and the whole world has been bogging me down a bit.

in terms of video games, I’ve been bouncing around a lot. I’m very slowly playing through bug fables, but other games have me distracted like wargroove, Celeste, and slay the spire.

I, like most of you, have not been reading a lot of anything recently either. For hobbies and such I’ve started writing again (my own novelization of a comic/graphic novel I hope to make one day) and I’ve started doing a bit of drawing practice visa vi tracing. I don’t intend to trace forever but I haven’t picked up my pen tablet all year and I need to learn some new techniques for a bit before I hone my own style.

anyways, I hope you’re all doing well! Have a good week!

Community is one of my favorite shows! I recently went through the whole series again during quarantine... did not take long. I love how self-aware it is. Also any tv show or movie that is a "murder mystery" of sorts is my jam.

Aside from that I've been trying to write, draw and play guitar. I am not very good at any of those things but it's fun anyway.

Plus, LEGO, jigsaw puzzles, board games and video games. My favorite are the "escape room" type or again, mystery solving. I would have been a detective if I had the stomach for it...

As far as PC is concerned, Steam is doing a MASSIVE sale right now. And I am [Somewhat] ashamed to admit, I recently purchased about 20 games...
My name is Jack, and I have a Steam addiction.

Perfect for binge-watching during quarantine. And murder mysteries are always intriguing! Writing, drawing, and playing guitar sound like wonderful creative outlets, regardless of skill level.
