My life is pretty chill at the moment. Got laid off last month and am still on the job hunt.

Chef (35 years in the industry) moved family out of the US in 2019, opened a restaurant 4 months before covid, run it with my wife…still here & have a great vibe.

Hike (not too much now, gimpy tendon & old) Bike (shifted down feom road to mountain/trail) Beach (every day in the summer) Travel (so far we have been sticking with exploring more of our adopted country) Eating

Early 30s Stay at Home Dad currently. Previously worked in a few various professions, electrician apprentice, laborer, and accountant.

A broad description of my hobbies would be tech in general, PCs, Keyboards, etc. Gaming and movies.

Life lately is finding ways to keep my toddler stimulated whether it be taking her to the beach or play groups. She starts preschool in the fall so I’m soaking up this time I’m getting with her, when she goes to school i will be looking for a job to get that double income back in the household.

I got ADHD so I enjoy a lot of things, top of them are reading, drawing, writing, learning English and Japanese and various IT/tech tinkering.

I‘m working in SAP, though I see that only as a means to sustain myself and conform, but I refuse to see the work as part of my being or personality. I try to be pleasant and funny IRL, which I‘m told works well, but on the inside I‘m a depressed mess. I try to work on that in therapy, but it‘s not super effective for me. Well it helped a bit, as I now have more of a “try to find joy in little things” attitude, but the doom is still all there.

Online, I‘m mostly to offload some of my darker thoughts on the world, which haunt me if I don‘t let them out occasionally. Reddit was my main outlet for that as it had a large variety of “doomer” subs, now I got unleashed on the fediverse, right now looking for some anti-corporate instance or maybe something anarchist to fit into.

I love video games, board games, music, and traveling. I used to love programming too, but working as a software dev for as long as I have has kind of killed that passion 😅

Life is great! I feel very fortunate to not have a lot of stressors in my life. I hope that’s more common than it seems these days!

I‘m in my early 30s, I used to be an academic doing AI stuff, for now I’m a SAHM which has been a big change. Used to do programming, gaming and embroidery in my free time, liked tinkering with my pc setup (I use arch btw). Now I don’t have much time anymore, seriously staying home with a baby is a million times more stressful than any job I ever had! So now the hobby I make time for and refuse to give up is RPGs, tabletop and PC. Can’t wait for my son to be old enough to play also.

Mid-30s web designer equally versed in design and frontend development, quiet in conversation but loud in spirit and fashion choices. Hobbies are whatever I need and whatever I can get my hands on - today it’s woodworking and construction due to a burst pipe, last year it was cooking and zero waste living plus grad school, with dashes of IndieWeb, gardening, hydroponics, and plenty of internet in between. I don’t work too many hours in the traditional sense, but I do keep myself constantly busy - full time job, side gig, fixing all the things. I am often asked if I sleep. The answer is yes! I love naps, I usually take at least one a day.

tldr: neon chaotic hobby napper here, nice to meet you.
