Short answer: Tetris, on Nintendo. Meditation. Listening to gangster rap and electronic. Also going for long walks and watching anime and horror movies.
On a broader note: I'm of the perspective that "writer's block" is a mythical concept. It doesn't exist. You show up, you sit down, you slit your wrists over the keyboard and pray something works (even if it ultimately doesn't), no matter how easy or hard it is to do that day. What does exist is fatigue and frustration. These two concepts are a killer to a writer's productivity. Take a break, do your self care, come back and crush it.
