How are you bettering yourself with all this free time on your hands?

Most of us are stuck at home and bored to death. It's the perfect opportunity to pick up a new hobby or learn a skill you've always been interested in but didn't have time for. Many publishers are offering some or all of their e-resources free for a period of a few months. Audible has made hundreds of audiobooks available for free during the pandemic. Many MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) providers (Coursera, edX, udemy, codeacademy) are offering free or discounted courses amid the outbreak. I want to hear your ideas. Are you learning a new language, rediscovering your love of reading or drinking in your underwear while watching clips of Trump and starting fights in NSG?

You should consider utilizing your spare time to improve your grammar.

Haha I just reread my post and it's pretty bad. I've been staring at the screen all day learning CAD shit.

Your edit made it better but there are still errors. Can you figure out what they are?

I'm not getting any better but the inside of my car got cleaned out for the first since I bought it and seemed like its first cleaning in forever.

Just getting better at video games and trying not to run out of weed. Been trying to limit myself to only drinking a few nights a week (just a few beers) cause it could be way to easy to just drink every day.

Writing music, learning piano finally, and drinking waaaay more than a healthy amount, but I feel I'm being productive enough in the day time to justify it.

putting out music gorillawallace.bandcamp.com/album/good-cone-great-day

playing guitar

going for walks

smoking mad weed and drinking

playing steep, with a podcast on my laptop

editing the last of my skiing footage

Digging the psych jams. The kick in good cone has a real metal sound, but you keep the chill vibes throughout the album. Thought it was gonna turn super heavy. Cool stuff though.

Hopefully I'll get my bedroom EP done during this quarantine as well. Always cool to see people sharing their albums here.
 
Working on art - learning woodblock printing & drawing, listening to house mixes, maybe try some more animation stuff if I'm ready to commit to a project. Got a couple more weeks of kush. Pretty nice to be quarantined tbh, I'm not going quite crazy like a lot of folks.
 
But fr. I’m reading a lot, training a lot. Doing some hardcore workouts. Playing the guitar and just hanging with the boys. Life’s good.

And when this blows over I have hookers and money made off stocks to look forward to

My two favourite hobbies right now are searching for jobs that no longer exist and cars I can't afford
 
all you skiers who are in decent shape but arent flexible I highly suggest incorporating some sort of yoga or something into your routine for the morning. got nice and stoned and did some yoga in my room yesterday and felt like a million bucks

a 20lb weight gain is no joke! it can sneak up on you faster than you expect
 
Yesterday I mowed the lawn and slugged beers all day. But actually I have been cooking a lot, cleaning up like a normal person, doing push-ups and sit ups every morning, I am only a part time dirt bag.
