Obviously for Northern Hemisphere folks here. Where I am, it has been mostly below freezing, a little snow but not enough to pe pretty or good to play in. It’s mostly indoor activities. I work out at the gym, play board games, have random get togethers with friends. What do you do?

I tend to use the traditional British methods of sighing, whingeing and moaning.
Moaning about the weather can be done communally at bus stops, to increase comradeship.
We don’t have bus stops here so people do a lot of communal moaning in shops and markets.
Read, play video games, watch movies and anime. Oh, and post on forums.
Actually, thinking about it, there’s one thing that’s sort of the backgound to all of those things, and could be said to actually be my main activity in the winter, and that’s providing a lap for my cat. The rest of those are things that I also do.
I’m an avid indoorsman. One of my best friends is too, fortunately. I almost never get cabin fever (though it does happen).
Winters for me feels like home turf. My favorite activity is tabletop gaming with friends. When I can’t do that, I love reading books and watching videos. Occasionally I’ll play Steam games, but I spent enough of my youth on that, so it’s way down the list of choices.
I also like to try out new recipes. I’m a better cook than baker, but I do some of both. And I really enjoy playing with our two dogs. They teach the stupid human how to be in the moment.
I’m a boring but happy guy when left in peace.
D vitamins and gaming. Having a kid helps get you up in the morning
For the most part I keep doing the same things while enjoying it less. Obviously I go outside less but I still do. I gear up, hop onto my bike and ride into the pitch black forrest only to realise this kind of sucks and then I just do a short trip and come back home. Then I forget that it wasn’t that fun and do the same thing again tomorrow.
Hibernate.
Drink 😁
Take vitamin D like it was candy
And then my doctor tells me my Vitamin D levels are too high, and I need to stop
That’s possible?
Yes, although I do not think she is a very good doctor at all
As an Australian living in Canada I find winters difficult after a few weeks. So I usually plan a trip south in February. I’m trying to get better about winter sports like cross country skiing. I have a 3yo now which helps, I can learn about winter fun and games through her
Ski pretty much every weekend, vibe, chill.
That was my plan, been slacking though. Haven’t been up in a month
Do you live near a skiable hill? That sounds great. Been skiing two times this year alread. It realy is thebest way of spending the winter.
I live in Denver. So…kinda. Just gotta wake up early and drive an hour and a half.
Whiskey + black metal
I just dress warmly, often even when inside. It’s the biggest factor in weathering out the Winter, you just have to know how to do it. Currently laying in bed in an opened green hoodie over a pink plaid shirt and jeans and a warm temple garment bra/panties. It’s normal around here to just accept having on three layers.
I’m thankful there are a lot of community events in the smallish towns in my area that help stave off the winter stir craziness. I think I’ve only seen the sun 4 times in the last 3 months but those few days were glorious. I can still get some hiking done on days where it’s not miserably windy. The thing that kills me the most are how short the days are.
Visit a garden centre that has a greenhouse. I picked up a little cactus!
