Good lord this is rough. I kinda rotate and cycle through hobbies. Recently I just can’t seem to commit to calligraphy again. I know I will eventually but it’s been a while.

Animation

Playing music. I’ve played the drums and flute semi-professionally and the guitar recreationally. I think I’m too afraid of picking them back up and having forgotten how to play them. (Drums is also just a hard solo instrument lol)

Blogging. Even if it doesn't matter in this age of AI and video content. I want to write for the four people who will read it. I have managed to get back to knitting and crocheting a little, at least!

Art and/or music production

I think I even have my first candle making kit from back high school in one of my ADHD moving boxes I still haven’t unpacked 20 years later 🥲

Meanwhile other things are dependant on supply like hat making. Beaver and rabbit felt capeline blanks have to be sourced outside the country. There are issues with market access just now in both EU & US.

My bass guitar is just sitting there. All I need is a new cable or amp (I can’t figure out where the short is). Sigh.

Same. I used to do more writing, and I've hardly worked on stories in years.

Aikido. I really miss it!

Drawing. My notes were always covered in little drawings (doodling helped me focus in class) and I used to draw pretty good likenesses of people. Got out of the habit, tried to get into it again recently and wasn't anywhere near as good at it anymore. Now I can't bring myself to try again.

I bought all the tools and materials to make a cosplay, but it's all sitting in boxes for a year now 😐

"Making a salary that can support my family"; followed by "living somewhere with a good thai restaurant".

I started knitting a scarf in 2012.

D&D (and similar) games with my friends. Everyone is busy/overloaded enough that this will only happen if I find the headroom to plan and run it, and I think the other sometimes-GMs in my group are in the same wedge.

Beading

Making actual money?
