For entertainment, I tend to read about things outside my field — things like In the Pipeline where I learn about FOOF and chlorine triflouride and freaky molecules like jawsamycin (insert shark theme here). I also watch Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board videos on YouTube, like that time a refrigerator accident at a poultry plant caused hydraulic shock and released a massive cloud of ammonia, and ~150 contractors hanging out across the river working on Deepwater Horizon cleanup measures got sent to the hospital.
