What are some skills that can be turned into hobbies that would be good for a Leftist to know? (hexbear.net)

Like the title! I want to cultivate some helpful skills but do so gradually, as a hobbyist. Tempted to get into lockpicking, haha.

I would play Arma 3 just for a taste of the old bullshit I used to do when I get a yearning for a hit of nostalgia, but nothing beats really experiencing getting abso-fucking-lutely getting lost in the middle of a huge fuck-off forest in the middle of winter somewhere in the middle of Alaska for 18 is hours a day for several days in a row. Or whatever your local equivalent would be lol

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say getting absolutely lost in the wintery alaskan wilderness with no honed navigational skills is more of an advanced move
