With much of the UK now under lockdown restrictions for the third time, the wait for a vaccine and an easing of strict safety measures can feel like a long one.
By enjoying doing my job as a translator of English literature...

Waiting for hours and hours in seeminingly endless phone queue to speak to HRMC probate department...
By being worked harder than ever before and having the line between work and leisure eroded by unscrupulous employers.
By not being bored. Lucky enough to have been a child in the 50s/60s who found ways to be self sufficient.
My 35hr work week as a hostel manager turned into 60hrs studying at home to become a programmer. In a way I’m glad it happened to me personally as I was always afraid to take that step and give up my job. Don’t get me wrong, I understand everyone who’s struggling and wish u💛🖖😷
I broke the ‘boredom’ of imbibing fearmongering media broadcasts by educating myself about what is really going on. I discovers that the PCR tests on which the whole sham rests were fraudulently mis-sold (fact- check it) and that everything from their was porridge aka propaganda
Try going on online tourist trips. So many fun places have Virtual tours you can do. Recently, I've been exploring the insides of the Pyramids in Egypt and doing a tour of the Great Wall in China....
Lockdown is bittersweet. I love being told to stay home, but I despise the pandemic bc of all the valuable lives that have been lost as a result. Spending time with my dog, binge watching Netflix docuseries, learning French & writing keep me going.
Boredom? What boredom?
By being steadfastly bored
I mused on why I hate the Guardian so much. I remember around 2005 when I read an Editorial about Cameron's Big Society and what a great idea it was, and how it was unfair to characterise it as away of shrinking the State. That's when I realised that the Guardian isn't an ally.
I started Tweeting
No boredom, young children and wfh
Cannabis

I haven't done; I'm still bored. damnCovid19 🙄
I haven’t beaten it. Not sure anyone has. Its just a bit shit really. No point being overly positive!
Not sure boredom is the crux of the matter. Depression, anxiety, suicide might be a more true issue to address. Honestly sounds like another propaganda piece to support lockdowns....''oh they're not that bad, just a bit of boredom...no problem'
