What's everyone's current hyperfixation, and what are you enjoying about it?
Mine is currently insects, and has been for about a year now. Longest an interest has lasted for me. There's just so many of them and so much to learn~
Currently it's miniatures. I don't have a lot of time /energy/money at the moment, so doing what I can (like YouTube videos before bed). It was all things aquatic (mostly related to fish tanks etc) until I got passed over for a job at work /winter depression, so that's kind of on hold right now.
Gardening has been my main hyperfixation the past 6 months, when it was still winter it was brutal because I wanted to actually plant stuff but couldn't with the ground frozen lol. So the first 3-4 months was just very intense research, ammassing massive amounts of info into spreadsheets and calenders lol. Not that it's warm out I've been spending a vast majority of my free time either in the greenhouse (that my neighbor helped me build because he was "bored" lol) tending to the seedlings, or out in the yard slowly moving the literal ton of dirt (10 cubic yards) I asked for for my birthday last month (thanks to my mom for her always very literal interpretation of my requests lol) from the driveway into the raised beds, one wheelbarrow at a time. Transplanting starts next week and I'm very excited! It's been a while since I've had a hyperfixation last this long so I'm just having a blast riding the dopamine wave it's been providing lol
i’m hyperfixating on new ways to enrich the lives of my cats, researching new cultures and world history, watching lots of classic films and reading the works of j.r.r. tolkien
Mushrooms and herbal blends. I spent 3 hours a couple days ago going down a 3-4 page rabbit hole (of notes) and looked into 6 schools, 2 programs, and 3 certifications 🤣 till 3 am.
Absolutely enamored by moss, mushrooms, and tardigrades! That being said, I love learning the weirdest most niche facts (often from history) and then finding a way to include the information in day to day conversation. My coworkers essentially use me as Google at this point and it’s great
Mine is art and strangely human augmentation (from prosthetics and how they work to extra senses provided by technology using sensory functions to train the human brain to sense something in a new way or incorporate a new sense entirely by using a different sense, to brain implants and medicine). 👀
