    Wanted to put this out there. Hobbies consist of: 3d printing, shooting, gaming, reading, and small project crafts. would love if y’all would list some hobbies so that other members can connect, discuss, and meet up. Honestly, I prefer this social media site than any other, simply because we agree on some fundamental principles, or you wouldn’t be here. looking to add collecting comics to my hobbies.

    I’d say gaming is my biggest hobby been playing games in some form or another for the past 20 years at this point. I do have some comics and I’ve been getting into reading them more with Rippaverse on the horizon. I’m an amateur guitarist and I’ve also got a kalimba. Wouldn’t consider myself super talented but there is a decent amount of music I can play. I’m also into computers and pot.

      Currently my son is teaching himself guitar. Any pointers for a young aspiring musician?

        Sorry didn’t see this for a while. Best advice I can give is to play as much as you can. Also when practicing a new song or scale play it slowly but all the way through even if you make mistakes, eventually it will click and sound right but you got to fall down a few times before you can learn how to walk.

    I’m a car guy primarily, but I also race sprint boats in the summer. Secondary hobbies would be riding quads and motorcycles, with gaming being one of the last things on my list of hobbies.

      The family is about to get into the whole dirt bike stuff. My daughter’s friend brought her bike over and looks like a lot of fun. We will be getting those in the future. Cool stuff

      Quadbikes and motorcycles sound like some awesome hobbies to have.

        It’s great, honestly. You’re in the hole for several thousand dollars initially, buying a bike/quad and gear, but it’s good fun and it’s good for you. In my experience, almost everyone is your friend on the trails, so you get natural socialization and it makes you like people more in general, something that doesn’t really come naturally to me.

    My main hobby is going to the gym, a bit of strongman here and some powerlifting there, though I am still a novice. Recently, I’ve been trying to build up my skills in programming languages like Python. I am very much into reading manga and I am slowly getting into comic books. I also love playing Tabletop games as well.

    My hobbies consist of internet surfing, reading, shooting firearms at the range, and training in self-defense.

    Video games is a hobby I still enjoy whenever I go to a relative’s house that has a game console.

    And as you can imagine, I am a firearms enthusiast.

      Have you looked into 3d printing? It is the reason why I got into it. Ctrlpew.com is a pleather of information if you are interested. Might make a forum for the firearm enthusiast.

        3D printing is not a hobby I have too much interest in, but will keep in mind if I’m completely bored and have enough money for it.

    My hobbies include pretty much anything with a story; this includes books, comics, shows, movies, and video games. I haven’t had a lot of chances to play them, but I have enjoyed playing DnD and would love to try more table top games.
