Tobacco pipe making. Buy a predrilled briar block for ~$35. A Dremel with a few bits to quickly get it to shape... Hand sand for 10+ hours. Oil and wax it. I very rarely smoke a pipe, usually only when around others that smoke a pipe. Think I'm on my 9th pipe. I have given most of them away but have a few I've kept for myself. Every once in awhile just pick them up to appreciate how nice the wood turned out.

Lately I’ve been playing Space Engineers. Holy shit can that game eat up the time.

Programming, replay old pc games from the '90s, check out new music, explore business ideas, crafts, reformat a laptop and put a different OS on it, pick a Zelda game and start a replay, do paint touch-ups on the walls. Hpping to add gardening to this list this summer; getting rid of the blackberries is still ongoing.
I've been learning 3D modeling in blender for about 2 months. Lately decided to also start drawing to be able to make some reference sketches.
Programming, solving complex problems (or attempting to) is like a punching bag for my brain when I just need to destress
