Happens about 20mins after I wake up.

It’s playing CK3 or watching my favorite show in Russian for me.

Time to grab your board (web navigator) and surf (follow hyperlinks) the web (more commonly, the graphical “internet”). Totally rippin the gnar, my gender indeterminate dudes (check out wikipedia). Yeaaaahhh (yes, emphatically)!!!

roserose56 ,

I do that while listening a CD and then I start work around the home.

I remember in the early to mid 2000s when the internet was new and there seemed to be loads of stuff to do.

Was never bored

it is still the same, but we’re already conditioned to have everything thrown at us on every single internet interaction, making the thought of searching something new seem like stepping out of our comfort zone

with AIs and what not, this feeling will only worsen

Go for a walk, read a book, watch a movie, play a game it will make you feel so much better. Just remember to change activities every few hours. If you’re going to play games for 10h you are probably going to get bored of it way too quickly.

Go for a walk, read a book, watch a movie, play a game

I’d love to, but I’m at work. There’s a bit of a lull between the storms of activity atm, and I would absolutely love to not waste time with just being stuck in the office. But I can’t afford it

hypertown ,

I know how you feel man. I used to work in a job like that. Honestly what saved me was reading some comedy manga on mangadex. Since it didn’t require a lot of brainpower and I could just stop reading it whenever I wanted it was perfect for times like this. My head also was in a much better state than after scrolling back then reddit for hours. If you don’t like manga you could just find some easy book.

If you can’t go for a walk during work go before or after work. I try to cycle every day after work and it always makes me feel better.

CyberMonkey404 ,

Thanks for the kind words!

grrgyle ,

Can’t read a book at the office? Working through a book whenever the queue was empty was one of the few pleasures of working retail/call centre

Put down your phone. Close your eyes. Imagine one (1) thing. You’re cured.

It’s disgusting how many times I’ll catch myself opening an app I closed less than 2 minutes ago because I was bored.

DrDominate ,
@DrDominate@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve closed Lemmy and not ten seconds later open it up again.

It’s a loop

Alteon ,

Boredom breeds innovation. It’s okay to be bored. In fact, I really wish our society would get “legitimately” bored more often.

Courantdair ,

So you have five different apps to browse Lemmy?

ColeSloth ,

You play shattered pixel dungeon for the next 20 hours is what you do.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

I gave up conventional social media recently, and I do paid surveys instead. I made 225 dollars in four weeks.

Brickhead92 ,

What do you do paid surveys on?

I only do google rewards, but that’s generally how I pay for any new apps I want.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

My phone. HeyPiggy, Five Surveys, and Qmee apps are the best. I’ve made about 5K in three years, this is Qmee alone. It’s a grind but I’ve really made lots of cash. I went through my Amazon account one day and discovered I’ve bought 117 items with my survey cash.

PrettyFlyForAFatGuy ,

If you work out your hours invested into this are you below or above minimum wage?

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Well below, but it’s something to do besides scrolling.

PrettyFlyForAFatGuy ,

You should channel this energy into a business or something

BonesOfTheMoon ,

I have two jobs already. I’m just doing this while I work. It’s kind of a long story.

SubArcticTundra ,
@SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml avatar

Wait, where did you find this job?

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Not a job, paid survey apps. HeyPiggy, Five Surveys, Qmee are the best ones.

@SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml avatar

I see. Thanks!

Sam_Bass ,

Then its timeto put down the phone/laptop/tablet, get up off your butt and move around. Maybe even do something while youre up

Lol, people here do a lot of assumptions. I typically do like ~9k steps each day, I spent a lot of time outside, go to gym etc. but 1)having hard tasks to do and 2)spending a lot of time alone (alone meaning without interacting face to face with real friends) for various reasons contributes to this.

Sam_Bass ,

Yep.

Potatos_are_not_friends ,

Eww gross but moving around can lead to death I watched a YouTube video on that. I’m not falling for that

Sam_Bass ,

Heres a little known secret: breathing leads to death. So stop it if you want to live forever
