Admining a Lemmy instance isn’t especially creative but at least I don’t get paid for it.
I do calligraphy!
This is visually beautiful but makes me long for a few days ago when the weekend was ahead of me.
On Sunday mornings I fix bicycles at the local community center for free, we just charge the price of materials.
For me is like Zen meditation, it makes my mind focus on one simple task in these crazy times where our attention span is all over the place. And it’s good for our community since most of the people that come there are broke college students, families having a hard time and in general people who want to spend time together. Our group is always growing, I’m expecially proud of two kids, children of immigrants, who came to learn from us two years ago and now managed to save enough money to open their own bike repair shop.I paint. I sold through a gallery for awhile but it just wasn’t worth it when I could make ten times more for far less work doing my original job, so now it’s back to just for fun. Also I hate painting portraits of rich people but if you don’t do that it’s really hard to make money. I also hated the mandatory social media removed. Engaging in that ecosystem disgusts me.

My brother is really into making electronic music too. Last Christmas, he said he really wanted a Stylophone. I got him one, but first had him open a gag gift that was a child’s toy Xylophone and was like “I heard you really wanted one of these”
Cook, bake, crochet, cross-stitch, oil paint, watercolor, party planning etc I hoard hobbies but don’t do any of them professionally since I already have a job. They are all hobbies I enjoy
I cook for the family. It’s not the cooking that’s creativity for me, most of the time, it’s the menu planning that is the hardest to think through.
Omg! I complain about this all the time! Deciding what to make is by fast the hardest part!
I bake for my families and friends, and i sometime do wood working too.
Tabletop roleplaying
Sigh, I wish I could get paid for it. I absolutely love building a compelling story, but I’m far too nervous with strangers.
Make Gameboy games. Make music. Cook
Do you make Gameboy music though? I used to really be into LSDJ. I know nothing about programming actual games though
I made a track for my game, yeah, but using UGEtracker which is built into GB Studio. It’s not the easiest to use tbh so it wasn’t that fun.
LSDJ sounds very cool, have you checked out the DirtyWave M8? I ran the cheap version (Anbernic console with a dongle) but I couldn’t get over the learning curve. Now I have a Polyend Tracker Mini which I really like
BTW I’m not really a programmer either, GB Studio simplifies things a lot and it’s free if you want to check it out
I haven’t kept up with anything chiptune related in prob 10 years or so, so no I am not too familar with any new tools for the GB. I did enjoy making music on it though. It fun to work creatively when there are a bunch of limitations!
Make skirts!
Cool. Want to share a pic?
DM/GM from time to time.
Do you have a game of choice? I’ve just finished running a Dresden files accelerated game which was a lot of fun.
D&D and Pathfinder are the main ones, and Genesys sometimes when I can convince my players to give it a try. Currently trying to maybe get something going with Cyberpunk Red.
I crochet little animals for friends and family.
Unasked, most of the time :)I enjoy photgraphy, mostly buildings and infrastructure, I have a gallery on a personal webhost, and never really share the link to it except to friends and family, but I have tyeblink to it on my CV.
Creating memes…
