When someone asked me recently what I’m into I didn’t have answers. Existential crisis aside, what are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up?

I recommend trying some new sports. Check out community centre drop ins or beginner leagues. It is a great way to get some exercise and meet people.
I just started playing volleyball in my late 30s. I never played a lot of sports as a kid, and being short, this was a weird choice. I was really intimidated at first because it has a fairly high skill point of entry, so I just started passing to myself and serving a wall in a park during covid to get some exercise. Eventually I found a drop in at a local community centre and despite being the worst one there by far, the community was really welcoming and I kept at it. I’ve made a bunch of new friends in the community and l absolutely love sports now.
I love volleyball. And hackey sack. I’m in my 30s. I started shooting hoops a little bit too. I’ve always been athletic, but got out of the groove, and while my knees don’t like it, it’s super worthwhile, especially if it’s team oriented.
