I'm pretty sick of my content addiction, like watching youtube or netflix all the time. I would rather be spending my time otherwise so figured fun things are the best to start. Do you have tips for fun things to do? Or how I could search for them?

Some I came up with myself:

  • Learning some magic tricks
  • Learning some origami
  • Thrift shopping

Everything is welcome!

Edit: thank you for the huge response!

learn the history of a region

I'm currently reading about the Mississippi River and it sparked a obsession in me. Like, knowing the history of how the natives used the river, the used of it during colonial times, how we use it today. The states that border it. The people that live near it. Water, pollution, fish.

I've been going a mile deep for weeks now in understanding it and it's so fulfilling.

Yes! It's really satisfying. Something like a river would be extra cool, thanks for the idea!
