Most “pranks” are just a) terribly unfunny, b) actually bullying by another name, or c) both.
If we could just keep the rare good ones I’d be all for it, but alas!
I’m sure anyone reading this in the UK is already aware of MSE but just in case: https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/savings/savings-accounts-best-interest/#easyaccess
A quick glance suggests most of those really high ones are time-limited bonus offers, but other places are doing quite high interest in general e.g. Marcus is paying 4.75%.
I think we all do that a bit, tbh. But when I get to the “rip it” stage I just put it in a timeout box instead, work on a new thing, then usually the desire to get back to the original thing will return eventually! If it really doesn’t I’ll also frog but that’s relatively rare.
Bonus of having so many craft hobbies I guess, there’s always some other WIP to switch focus to!
3d printing is useful for almost any hobby if you try hard enough!
We got really into making handmade dice for a while there, and used our resin printer to make custom master dice with our logo on. And I’ve used it to print out useful bits and bobs for cross stitch too. Someone I follow on Mastodon 3d printed a sock knitting machine, that was very cool.
Truly 3d printing is the hobby that keeps giving!
Making things, mostly.
Lots of crafts like knitting, crochet, cross stitch, sewing, felting, origami, faffing about with clay, etc etc. And gamedev which I basically think of as the same sort of hobby because it’s just making a different sort of thing.
Making YouTube videos about all of the above, in defiance of the algorithm gods.
Reading any and all scifi I can get my hands on, plus the Discworld series just over and over again endlessly on a loop.
Also the amount of time I spend on Mastodon and Lemmy probably means it counts as a rather lame hobby at this point…
