I’ve not had a good day today. The kids have been shits, my wife has winged at me for not doing something I have already done, I’m hot, tired and stressed from work and fed up of not having a good nights sleep due to my 3 year old waking us up in the middle of the night constantly.

I want to rage at something but I can’t leave the house. I have access to a gaming PC, PS5 and all the movies the streaming services have to offer, my wife isn’t home so it’s just me and a couple of kids who should be asleep in the next hour or two.

I need some catharsis, what would you do?

    Mad music on headphones, drop to the ground and blast through pushups to failure as fast as I can.

    Follow that up with a walk until resting heart rate is back to normal and steady.

    Take a walk and listen to an album you’ve been meaning to get to. When you get back, take a shower and light some incense. Then just kick back brew some tea and play a cozy game for an hour or three.

    Doom. Go play Doom. Don’t pick hardest difficulty, don’t pick easiest difficulty. Smash your way through some demons with a killer fucking soundtrack.

    EDIT: Doom 2016 is the one I was referring to. Great lore, but you don’t have to slog through cutscenes and the lore doesn’t get in your way when mowing down crowds of angry monsters.
