I never feel bored. The closest, I guess, is feeling lost and not motivated for anything or stressed and jumpy between things.
In those cases or more when I don’t “have anything to do” in general, I open Lemmy, or YouTube, or watch anime or some series, read manga, or watch documentaries. Depending on motivation and mood I open games or do open source or personal project work. Sometimes open specific news or test websites, or my RSS feed accumulator. Or do whatever else is open to do.

Play music, read a book, draw something, play a game, or watch a movie.
I watch birds. I’m not even that old. But birds can be interesting.
Dude. I started feeding birds in my garden around 3 years ago, I wasnt even that interested in birds, now I have a shit load of regulars and I love watching those little bastards.
Really? how so?
Honest question.
The same way anything can be interesting.
You can see the different personalities between species and between individual birds. They are often smarter than you would think.
Lately…eat out of boredom. I’ve been trying to curb it, but not succeeding. I’ve got 8 days off starting tomorrow. Not looking good for my waistline. 😔
Put things into other things. Take things out of other things. Push stuff. Sleep. Look at stuff.
I don’t remember the last time I was bored lol
Watch a movie, listen to music while browsing lemmy, or take a nap. If there’s something that needs to be done like repairs or chore, I do that too.
I wish that I had the luxury to be bored.
You mean besides masturbate?
perhaps they take that as a given and mean ‘after’
I used to eat out of boredom, and I gained a lot of weight. Then I took up the guitar during Covid. Now when I get bored, and tempted to eat something, I pick up the guitar and start playing. Soon I forget that I was bored, and forget about eating. I’ve lost 85 pounds, and I’m still losing.
Time for leisure is great. Read a book, play an instrument, daydream, learn something new, challenge your beliefs about whether certain institutions are beneficial or not, take a walk, ask someone in a position of authority subversive questions, fly a kite, take a nap.
scroll lemmy/bsky/hn, watch anime
I’m doing one right now, and you’re reading it. Other times I write scenarios for my D&D campaign, do 3d printing, and wiring/coding for IoT devices. Also making cookies. Also eating the cookies.
Play the guitar or harmonica, design a boardgame or a ttrpg, play videogames, check lemmy/youtube/nebula, be in my head. But I’m seldom bored, more like “if I have free time for some minutes”.
