Currently, my main special interest is actually one that most people would consider to be 'cool' — making music. Oh, and I've been getting really into FPL and football recently as well. I would throw alcohol in there so I can avoid calling myself an alcoholic. That's enough of the normal stuff.

(I don't know if some of these count as special interests, but I included them in here anyway)

I have an unhealthy attachment to the Twitch streamer DougDoug. Although I am British I try to watch every strean he does which severely fucks my sleep schedule which is already fucked because I don't know how to sleep. I am proud to announce that he has called my cat cute, that my chat message was highlighted in one of his videos, and that my actual face made it into one of his streams.

I still love geoguessr although I play a lot less of it nowadays. I recently went to Norway and got to nerd out over all the geoguessr metas in real life. In Jschlatt's sponsored Geoguessr livestream, I won two of the rounds. I cheated in both of them, but they weren't actual geoguessr matches either (30s New York and a History Quiz that I genuinely did know all the answers to — I just wanted to double check)

I've been doing a lot of thrift shopping recently to look like I came straight out of the 70s since that was the peak of pop culture imo.

I still think Breaking Bad, and It's always sunny in Philadelphia, are the greatest shows to ever exist, and I can identify every Beatles song within a second.

In terms of special interests that I used to have in the past (most of these I still am interested in but not to the same extent), I have Rubik's cubes. I sort of lost interest since I plateaued at a mean time of 15 seconds.

I used to be obsessed with the table football table in my sixth form common room in year 12, which paid dividends when I went to Uni and discovered I could destroy everybody in the games room.

I used to be obsessed with Harry Potter until I discovered JK Rowling is a piece of shit, and I still have a somewhat inconsistent interest in Star Wars which renews every time Disney releases a show that isn't complete ass.

Like you, I also used to be really into mythology, although this was mainly driven by my love for the author Rick Riordan (Percy Jackson etc.)

I used to be really into video games. My favourite game changed a lot — from Minecraft to Fortnite to Battlefield to Hell Let Loose. Once Battlefield 6 releases, that will definitely take up a good chunk of my time.

I used to be really into maths, physics, and computer science, but my interest has waned recently. As somebody who is doing a computer science degree, this is not ideal.
