I like farm heroes and fishdom

Wikipedia - pick a random topic and read all the links. Graveyards especially in London and Hollywood are fascinating and have links out to loads of different people from history.

BBC sounds app for graham norton and pick of the pops

Tiktok is an app where people post short videos. Think YouTube but limited to 30 seconds. You can search for stuff but best thing is the “for you” stream. They allocate videos and you just keep scrolling through them. I lose hours.

@ VivaLeBeaver That sounds like my jam! Will sign up

Morse code is the dots and dashes one. .-.. .. -.- . - .... .. ...

Might attempt semaphore (flag one) with the DC at some point...

How immense would that be! It would make a great tiktok vid!

I quite like tik tok but it makes me feel very ugly

Geoguessr is great but not so much when they place you in some random highway in a desert and you can scroll and scroll for 20 minutes and have absolutely no idea where you are lol. I. Do feel like a super sleuth though when I play it

Buzzfeed is just easy to read and the comments can be funny.

Boredpanda has some great posts.

For reading try longform.com and longreads.com - they collate the best long form news stories. Annoyingly the stories they have on their front page today are so-so but there’s great stuff on there. I also spend too much time on history and culture pages on Instagram :)
