I'm really such a tired old lady now, that I tend to stay home, think about cleaning up but usually don't, or pick up a little art project, right now I'm trying to talk myself into embroidery; a week go I had some fun with air dry clay.

My last day off I went to office Depot and this lady admired my hair, then she apologized and said she wasn't trying to give me "mal de ojo" (evil eye) which is a Mexican superstition; that if someone envys you, then you (who is envied) could receive bad luck. We laughed about it.

I said I needed an egg in my car, which is wrong, I need a lime in my car to ward off the evil eye, but she did a motion; like praying over me with the egg, either she didn't notice or she played it off, and we laughed about it. I was kicking myself afterwards for mixing up the two practices....so yeah...im still thinking about it lol

After that i probably went home and played games/watched youtube videos

mostly i build small weird websites at night. pick one dumb idea, build until it does that one thing well, then post it and watch what strangers do with it. the latest is a 90s chat room, lolchat.rip. reading what people type in there is the best part

Mostly ignore people and go out into the woods in various ways.

Or read books.

I used to go out a lot but increasingly people IRL in my city are weird and hostile, like a lot of fediverse users, so it's just nicer to stay home than go outside and be harassed by a weirdo with a complex. Prior to '22 nobody ever came up to me looking to start a fight ever, since middle school. But basically every other month someone tries to start a fight with me on the street or at a restaurant now, it's insane. IME it feels like the insanity of online/social media rage/hostility is bleeding over into reality and people feel like they must tell random people they see IRL how much they hate them.

It depends, really. I usually just fiddle with PC (piracy, emulation and the like) but also game a lot (on PC) and recently got a Switch 2 with Mario Kart World (and tomorrow Zelda Ocarina Remake). If gaming does not satisfy my needs then I read, currently busy with Revenge Of Odessa and debating to start any of the Dostoyevsky books.

In the evening I usually settle down with tv series or anime. I have been binging a show called ‘’Dr.Bull 2016’’ and started the new season of Dexter Resurrection yesterday evening.

Socializing is not my thing, I'm really introverted and don't really like people in general. I rather have alone time after spending 5 full days surrounded by people from work.

It really depends. In tandem with my day job, I also have other projects going on that I work on so I'm usually working even when I'm not working. The two major projects I'm working on right now is I'm putting together a graphic audiobook of a novel I wrote. That usually means I'm either in the makeshift audio recording booth I made in my closet reading my book out loud or I'm sitting on the couch putting together my narration along with the voice actors lines while Home Alone is on the projector for background noise. The other project I'm also doing is I'm in the process of sculpting my Miqo'te Dancer from Ffxiv in Blender in preparation for 3D printing her so I can have a custom figure of her. I'm just finishing up the 360 turnaround sketch of her and then I'll be moving on to sculpting the base naked body.

Outside of my off the clock work, I usually lie in bed and play my Rog Ally while I have funhaus or MXC playing on the TV. Or, I talk to my friend from university over discord about unhinged topics that usually descend into comparing waifus and husbandos or our shared PTSD from university. I live in a small town, so there's not a lot to do outside.

I read and spend time with my dog and wife and friends. Its a good life.

I masturbate. I could describe it in detail but it's probably best that I don't.

I enjoy being an annoying, pedantic pain in the ass to jerks that like to assert that their sexist and homophobic opinions are the majority.

It's incredibly easy to be more stubborn than them as they devolve into name calling and crying.
