It sorta depends. One of the toughest things is when im waiting on things and could be disrupted at any moment. So sometimes I don't want to get into a show or video game which are my go to. I oftentimes try to get tasks done like dishes or laundry.

Smoke or read, sometimes both in the case of doom scrolling.
I also listen to podcasts and go for bikerides (with a destination in mind like food) currently one known as fall of civilizations has my attention
Lemmy, lose terribly at pinball, excessively long walks when I have the time, check out live music if something cool is happening that won't bankrupt me, pot (due for a long break soon), drink (same), read random stuff online, watch movies (usually hilariously bad ones), maybe clean my house.
Kinda need to branch out, tbh.
I sleep. It's the closest to be distant from the boredom of existence.
I draw! 😊
What in the goddamn
😂 It's the adult form of my biblically accurate angel OC, Goodie! He's not a bad guy, just a tad mischievous... here's an old drawing I did of his larval form! 😃 Full resolution drawing here Progress pictures here
i love him
That is really cool and slightly terrifying.
Hehe, thank you! 😃
Browse Lemmy, play games, or even do programming.
I post on Lemmy lots like you do ;)
Yes
:)
Never am.
I also basically never get bored. If I am put into a situation that other people would find boring, I tend to get lost in my thoughts or daydream.
If that's not an option, I often find that I don't get bored even just doing simple tasks that others would find boring.
The only time I ever generally feel bored is if I am somehow required to do a truly mind numbing task, like wait for something to happen, and I am forcing myself to pay attention.
Same. Too little time and so much to do
Play video games, read, do chores, play with my dog
when i get to the point i think i am bored i think "maybe i am tired?" or "maybe i am hungry" or "maybe i need to unwind?" and it is surely one of those.
afaik, never really experienced pure boredom.
Zazen. If the mind is empty, there is no one to be bored.
Usually play guitar, play around in blender, or code. It sounds backward, but boredom does wonders for my creative side.
Go on Lemmy and rant in an echo chamber.
Or alternatively. Continuing reading SCPs and hope I don't get creeped out this time. (Spoilers, I will get creeped out again)
(My favorite SCP is 2935 btw. Awesome read.)
Or watch youtube videos. Veritasium is good (they did have some sponsorship controversy in the past, keep that in mind)
I sometimes rewatch old Jacksepticeye videos for nostalgia.
Occasionally I check to see if theres any new movies or TV series to watch.
The last I watched is For All Mankind, an alt-history on the premise of "What if the USSR won the race to the moon?", very intriguing. Hoping they'll have a new season soon, there is still a lot of story to be wrapped up.
I also check to see if The Expanse got renewed, although at this point I doubt it ever will.
I'm honestly running out of things to do.
Maybe I should go outside lol... right into the toxic gasoline exhausts of the many cars passing by, which just reminds me of climate change and makes me depressed...
What do y'all even do? I'm constantly bored...
Skim Lemmy and now Bluesky, play solitaire games, watch videos, go for a walk, contemplate the meaninglessness of existence, write, play video games, work (if I'm at work)
Listen to a record, read (books, comics, articles, anything), walk, watch TV, cook, text a friend, maybe even play a level of Portal or a word game, or just lie down if that's the mood.
Satisfactory recently took over my free time. ALL of it.
Otherwise I have coding projects, CAD/printing projects, electronics projects, D&D session planning, and (of course) Lemmy/Mastodon.
i feel like only people with too much free time get bored
Lemmy, play games, listen to music, learn music,
