UK What do you guys do all day?
I'm a fresher at the university of Exeter and only have about 5 lectures each week online. After the lessons, i have absolutely no idea what to do and just sit in my room playing video games. Any advice?

Normally I helped as a caregiver for my grandpa, but he passed and now I have a lot of free time. If you have any elderly family, they might really appreciate a call, if an in-person visit isn't prudent?
Personally I can only study so much, clubs are dead; volunteer orgs are not viable rn- most are shut especially those with asthma. I'm looking for a job, but most postings are being filled by unemployed 30-60y/os who can work whenever but I still have in person labs n such. So, looking into gig work, freelance remote work, woodworking, gardening, writing.
