What do you do when you’re really f’king angry? (self.asklemmy)

I’ve not had a good day today. The kids have been shits, my wife has winged at me for not doing something I have already done, I’m hot, tired and stressed from work and fed up of not having a good nights sleep due to my 3 year old waking us up in the middle of the night constantly.

I want to rage at something but I can’t leave the house. I have access to a gaming PC, PS5 and all the movies the streaming services have to offer, my wife isn’t home so it’s just me and a couple of kids who should be asleep in the next hour or two.

I need some catharsis, what would you do?

If I couldn't leave the house I'd play some violent video games.

When I can leave the house I'd go for a walk, fresh air and open skies tends to calm me down and put things in perspective.

GTA 5 in “director mode” with a bazooka and then going on a highway and exploding the cars really does it for me actually. I’m not a violent person, but it helps on bad days.
