Playing Factorio

I've been unemployed for the last few months. I'm single, no kids. I've had more of these 24 hrs of uninterrupted free time than I'd care for. Honestly, sounds wild, but I hate it now.

Sleep

What would I want to do?

• Cut down the 2 larger trees and 10 mini trees (originally hedges) that we marked for removal

• deep clean the house

• climb in the crawlspace and drill the pipe brackets I need to

• finally go weightlifting after months of no time or willpower

• play saxophone

• meditate

• go for a long run

• play with my dog and go adventuring for an hour or 2

• cook a new meal I haven't tried before

• watch a movie with my girlfriend

• take an edible

• play some games with the boys

What would I likely do?

• sleep

• mow the grass and rake leaves

• play rimworld

• watch Castle with my girlfriend

• eat leftovers

Wondering what to do because decision paralysis.

Assuming I was in the mood, have all the energy and mental focus I want I'd think about how to fix my home setup.

Bonus points if I would understand everything perfectly and didnt have a need to learn all intricacies beforehand

Sleep

Id do nothing for as long as I could, only way for me to fight the burnout. Most weekends I can just about fit enough nothing time to soothe the tism enough get my necessary self and house upkeep chores done. Every time I get a 3 day weekend, I find myself productive as hell on the third day. Otherwise I need to catch up on my nothing.

Just lost my job so I have this time. I want to travel a bit later, but until I can leave, I'm doing nothing at all. Years of fulltime work just killed off all social life, any motivation. Now that I'm finally free, I feel so dead inside that I just want to do absolutely nothing for a while.

Start with a solid 10 hours of uninterrupted sleep! Then make myself a cup of coffee and finish it while it's still hot while finishing my book! Then off to the library to get the next in the series and I pick up my dad for breakfast at a diner. Go home, and have a hot bath and start the next book. An afternoon quickie with my husband. Now I go to my sister's house where our other sisters already are to make a puzzle. All the husbands and kids arrive but since my day is free and uninterrupted my parents are in charge of my baby while I cuddle my husband and we all play Jackbox until midnight .

Probably just set up my github page. I've been having some trouble with it.

Take two edibles and enjoy a quiet afternoon.

24 hours is not enough time to recover from the burnout I get from my 3 part time jobs.

I’d probably lay on my sofa, mindlessly scrolling, beating myself up for not being more productive. It’s the ADHD way and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Reading the comments and I feel very VERY lucky because i have 24h free basically every weekend.

I'd take my partner somewhere nice I think. Haven't had the time recently

I happen to have a 50% exam tomorrow, that would be awesome to have. copium

Heh, I actually get those sometimes. I'm disabled, so the only real barrier to complete freedom is family, and I can sneak in a few days a year where I'm alone all day, and sometimes over night.

For real, the only thing I'd do that I can't do when everyone is home is crank the fuck out of the music. My wife gets migraines easy, and my kid seems to be following suit unfortunately. So really turning it up until I can feel the bass in my guts is a rare treat.

But you can only do that for so long before the ears get tired. So the rest of the time would likely be reading without interruptions.

I'm pretty fucking easy to please lol.

I sometimes house sit for my best friend, and that's essentially what I do there, just not that loud with the music because the pets don't like it past a certain point.

Sometimes I'll pop in a movie that isn't to the liking of the family instead of music, and enjoy the more immersive sound. Which, I could also watch things they don't enjoy as much with the sound up, but why not have both factors my way?

Mind you, I can do those things with everyone home, but it takes planning and I'll still have interruptions. But doing them always has the risk of causing my wife hours or days of pain and misery, so it's something I prefer to just wait for. Kinda makes it more enjoyable tbh.

REST and catch up on some of the things that I need to catch up on. Honestly, I should do that this weekend!

I go camping for an additional night. I already planned to bike and camp to the closest national park one last time before winter, this weekend, but I would gladly add one night to the trip and go right now instead of tomorrow.

Finally finish my first baldurs gate 3 playthrough. And spend the rest of the time achievement hunting by going back through my save states.

Rock climb

Do some work, go to the gym, cook dinner, plan a fun weekend event, go to bed early. I fear I am fully institutionalized at this point.

Sleeping, but I'm in my 28th 13hr shift in the last month and a half.

probably drink :(

Catch up on schoolwork. If I truly finished everything and have nothing to do I will probably rock climb, hike, exercise a bit. Haven't done those things in a while

I'd have to try and get myself to stop procrastinating and get my English course work done, while failing and doing pretty much anything else, like finally watching season 4 of Wakfu.

Probably mostly hang out with my wife. Also spend some time on personal projects

Sleep in, a leisurely breakfast, a drive out and maybe a hike to see the leaves changing, some chill time listening to music in my comfy chair, a nap that may turn into canoodling depending on how we're both feeling, toodle around with some hobby projects, out to pub trivia or live music with friends. Same sort of thing I do most weekends, minus any bills or housework.

I am kind of unemployed and just maintaining the house in order would take away those 24h in a breeze. Keep your house pretty, in order and well supplied.
