I collect foreign currency. Nice and simple.

I used to do this all the time since I don’t have siblings.


Sometimes I change the rules/original setup to give some of my characters/players “special powers” to fit their character.

For example, in Catan a Lannister player might always (by default) have a 3:1 harbor to simulate their economic power...

“L” might play Catan with assumed “perfect knowledge” of what is in everyone’s hands etc...

A. Going to the depths of my trusted websites to see if i can find weird ass shit, sometimes NSFW poop. Probably save it for later and show it to my enemies or something.
B. Loving the Megaman X SNES soundfont thanks to covers, compositions and remixes.
C. Reading about worldbuilding stuff and lore. Sometimes hearing music that could fit the ambient (like the OST of Ace Combat 3 for example).
D. Reading stuff aloud to practice my speech, usually making voices. Copypastas, fics, stories and other things are what i read.

I hope i could add writing factbooks to the list, but i don't know what going with me i don't have the feel to write stuff (and my not-so-good english doesn't help) like other people do (okay i'll know that i would not probably write dope stuff like for example, Valentine Z or... eh, okay i forgot sorry, but you know what i mean).

OH SHIT, IT'S ON!

Yo, it's me, -United Republic of Freedonia!. I got bored of that nation, i'm still keeping it active tho.
Btw, note that this nation is (mostly) based on my political views, but are taken with a wacky perspective and some things that NCC does are questionable. So don't take this nation seriously.

I was that tourist a few weeks ago. We don't have squirrels where I come from and I'd never seen one before, so I went kind of apeshit - whereas I've seen hundreds of pictures of the Statue of Liberty and actually found it really disappointing when I saw it in person.

I learn relatively useless trivia, learn to label more and more parts of a world map, learn digits of pi (on and off, the breaks tend to be longer than the time that I learn it), try to learn languages, and sketch some. If I had enough time I would read more books (hard science fiction).

My mother's grandma was born in Mexico, so she brought over a lot of coins and bills. I don't remember how I got them, but I also have 31 rupiah (which is effectively worthless).

also related I like to examine the way neon lights sparkle off the rain dripping from drain pipes at night, in the city

I also collect shells
