From being a spoiled child of a wealthy family on naboo to becoming Emperor of the Galaxy, Palpatine achieved what no other Sith Lord before him had, which was wiping out the Jedi Order and ruling the entire galaxy.
So when he wasn’t scheming to achieve power or later flexing said power as emperor, what did Palpatine do in his free time?
Well as a child Palpatine mainly spent his free time alone. He didn’t have many friends and his family treated him like an outcast. As he grew older and became a teenager, he used his family’s wealth to purchase forbidden texts on Sith lore. He read these texts on his own time outside of school and his other responsibilities. It was from these books that he realized how he was going to achieve the power he so craved.
He kept his knowledge of the Sith a complete secret, even to his soon to be Sith Master Darth Plagueis, initially telling the Muun that he barely knew much about the dark side order.
The one thing he really enjoyed doing as a teenager was speeder bike racing. He actually desired to become a professional racer at one point in his life. He loved the thrill and the sense of danger the races gave him. The rush they gave him was unlike anything else.
Once he became a senator and later the supreme chancellor, his tastes in entertainment changed quite a bit. Instead of speeding down a track at a hundred miles an hour, Palpatine now enjoyed the simple pleasures of the opera, frequently attending the famous Galaxies Opera House and owning his own private viewing chamber within the theater.
He found himself appreciating fine artwork and sculptures, going out of his way to surrounding his offices and apartments with antique art and statues.
He also took an interest in reading tons of literature, particularly poems. One collection of poems he really enjoyed reading were written by a poet by the name of Asenec, who was infamous for his poems being very dark, sickening and outright offensive.
Once he arose to the title of Emperor, Palpatine found his first few years as ruler of the galaxy to be an extremely busy task. The few moments of time he had for himself, Palpatine had surviving Jedi who had been starved in their cells be brought before him and forced to fight each other just for his mere entertainment. The Jedi that won would be allowed to live if they submitted to him and served his will.
He also spent a ton of time training secret spies and assassins to look after his subordinates whom he feared could betray him. And this was done for pretty everyone, even Darth Vader.
One of the more interesting things Palpatine did in his free time was write a ton of books. These books went over many things, including his political beliefs and how he rose to power, to his research and experiments concerning the dark side and Sith sorcery.
Researching all the secrets of the Jedi archives and obtaining Sith artifacts from ancient Sith Temples was another activity he did outside of his formal work as galactic emperor. One of the things he spent much of his time studying was trying to learn the secret to immortality.
He owned many palaces and resorts across multiple planets, from naboo to his secret fortress world Byss. His most famous palace was the one on Coruscant, which was the largest building on the entire planet....

Youve given us a TON of ideas on what he liked to do.

I really feel like Palpatine wanted to take over the galaxy just for the lulz, to see if he could do it.

He just woke up one day and went "Eh, why not? Something to do."

I like to imagine he spoke normally when alone and with his personal guard, and sounded evil and gravelly in public and in front of his enemies.

If he doesn't kill you for fun or because he's pissed at you, that statement is factually true. He has great taste to say the least and his statements put hallmark to shame.
