What do most adults of all ages without children do with their time?

[Weebster]

I know reading is rare nowadays. Tv shows and movies inject politics and have largely turned off those just looking for escapism. So what do people do?

 

[its-about-time]

I live alone, don't see people much, and don't work. With tv I like non fiction stuff that's educational and entertaining. History channel, documentaries, science stuff. I like non fiction books but mostly use audiobooks these days. I journal. I cook fancy meals even though I can barely eat anymore and much gets given away or rots in the fridge. Sit outside and smoke cigarettes. Listen to music. Garden and do yard work. Little projects here and there to keep me busy on good days. I don't have social media and got off Reddit's toxicity months ago. I never seem to get too bored. Honestly ever since I settled on a method and ordered it each day has felt great, I'm noticing bugs on the ground and getting excited about silly fun things. Life is okay. Maybe just knowing I can soon end it at any time is helping with that.

Not sure if this is asking for opinions on what most people do, or personal accounts of what members here do?

What most do

 

[deathbydragon]

Slave away at their jobs with a 'this is fine' mentality it seems.

 

[VoidDesirer22]

Basically jobs get in the way of everything good about life.

If it weren't for spending 5/7 days (holy fucking shit) in a place you don't want to be at, then most could actually learn new skills and fulfill themselves, rather than helping their boss buy their 6th yacht.

 

[yeh it's all gucci]

Work. Then nap, play some WoW and watch TV, eat, more napping, more eating, probly just play some more WoW, then its actual bed time. Wake up and repeat.

 

[Hurt]

Work. Play videogames or watch movies. I do all these things while having ctb thoughts. It's so hard!

 

[SuicidallyCurious]

Have always thought I would have a child free life by choice

Video games , sex , long walks

 

[Chiisai]

Work, sleep, rinse and repeat.

 

[sleepyghost]

Mostly work… some have hobbies or go out to concerts/drinking/etc. I generally watch TV and read to learn about random things I find interesting. I can't imagine trying to take care of a child and myself, I can barely do the latter

 

[Fadeawaaaay]

Nothing

 

[FuneralCry]

Distract themselves from death. That is what life basically is after all, it is just a pointless experience that we go through for the sake of it. All that humans are doing is just passing the time until they eventually die. I see life as being very depressing, and the thought of potentially having decades left is horrifying to me. I do not want any more days, all I want is to be gone.
