Homeownership.
Sucks to be you, I own a home made from recycled cardboard with a nice concrete roof (they call a bridge) ;)
On a serious note yeh renter too can’t afford one doesn’t matter what I earn unless I want to go paycheck to paycheck
Get a doctors appointment on the same day.
That’ll be a hard one even in ideal circumstances, I literally live in a city where half the residents are doctors that commute into the larger city nearby for work part time and yet appointments are still only available a month out.
Zero gravity dancing?
Yeah lol that would be neat. I don’t know if you could move
You push off against the walls.
Honestly I’ve often thought it would be fun to hire a sex worker, but it’s seemingly impossible to ensure safety from any diseases, from getting mugged, and also to ensure nobody is being exploited or coerced. I really wish it was legal and regulated (and ideally unionized) in my area. It would be cool to be able to access a service like that as easily as I can book a haircut.
tryst d link will usually have trustworthy SWers to contact if you’re really interested
Usually the ones that come off as spiritually into the whole thing will be your best bet for a first encounter
Also, don’t trust anyone who isn’t asking for vetting, seems backwards but sting ops will usually skip that part while legit SWers will often demand it to make sure they’re not exposing themselves to a sting on your end.

Where I am, SWers are decriminalized, but buying their services isn’t. So they don’t need to be afraid of stings. Not sure if that affects what you’re saying.
Anyway this is all hypothetical since I have a gf right now, but I’ve spent most of my adult life single and lonely and would have loved to be able to access SW services safely and legitimately during those times.
I might be stupid, but can someone explain why sex workers are decriminalized while buying their services isn’t? I don’t get the logic behind only punishing one party involved in the transaction. Note that I’m not against sex workers at all; I’m just confused about the logic.
They’re seen as “victims” by many people
Dungeons and dragons. I live in a foreign country and am still learning the language. I’m years away from being able to play.
It would be hilarious if you learned D&D vocabulary first.
A track day in a performance/racing car.
At this point in my life, other than opportunity costs, there’s nothing stopping me from doing anything reasonable. The issue is time and will.
I’d love to be able to see the stars better. I live in a very bright, and often overcast area. I have a nice little telescope, but I’ve only taken it out a couple of times. I’ve been meaning to catch up with the local astro club, but, you know, time and will.
I am in the local club and have two over-the-top scopes and still can’t pull it together.
Have you considered purchasing a night vision device? They help cut through light pollution better than anything, you will see a crazy number of stars.
I appreciate the idea. I just really like the photons to hit my eyes directly. Putting electronics in between makes it feel more like looking at photos than real stars.
I’d love to go to a sober bar. Sure, I can get non alcoholic cocktails at my local, but it’d be nice to have the atmosphere and know everyone else is sober too
You’re just kidding, right? Is that a real thing? (I looked it up, apparently it is real)
May I ask, why do you want a bar without alcohol? Are you not allowed to or not drinking by choice?
Offroading.
I have a somewhat capable truck but very limited places to get to try out its full capabilities. Here it’s illegal to drive motor vehicles without permission on a land that you don’t own.
So much fun, good memories with the offroad group I fell in with during the Forum era of the internet, some of us still keep in touch.
The group had people from around the US, and even though I lived in a place like you are now there were opportunities for road trips to meet up with & go with waaaay more experienced people.
I was NOT mechanically inclined but made Incredible meals camping (sushi, smoked pulled pork, bbq tri tip beef, etc.) so I traded that for help installing mods & fixing broken shit.
The group also went to the national meet up, but we never went on “official” runs, just went on our own and to make shenanigans & meet up.
Check out (your vehicle) 4x4 groups and start there!
Burn fossil fuel and tear up the land?
God forbid someone finds cars fun, right?
You could probably design and build an ev off-road vehicle. It would likely suck as the batteries are super heavy, but someone could.
As for land, it’s amazing how a lot of places designate ohv (off highway vehicle) trails and put time and money to maintain them so they don’t completely ruin the area.

Not quite. Finland.
traditional archery.
hangliding. the midwest is too flat :(
I want to make a tunnel boring machine for digging ~2 meter tall tunnels in sandstone. Sadly I live in a place with only sand in the underground and that’s not suitable for digging tunnels DIY style
That’s all?
Man, I’m really sorry you’re stuck in a sand pit.
We have so much fun with our TBM’s in my area. My neighbor, Ralf, built a 3M BEAST! You wouldn’t believe the daily progress he makes. It’s got integrated support walls and everything. Our club is in a bit of a feud with the hacks 3 subdivisions over. They keep boring too close to our tunnels. Not. Cool. Man.
Anyway, at least you can cut and cover with sand, a perfectly viable tunnelling strategy with lower startup costs.
Oh that sounds so cool, you got any videos of those machines?
I could do other tunneling methods, but I really want to make a TBM specifically
It feels like you guys are speaking a different language from a different planet
Cody’s Lab is also looking for an area to do stuff like that.
Make friends
Skiing. But i guess i’ll never get to try that in the future.
As an Austrian I can say that skiing is kinda overrated. I mean, Sure its fun but it gets pretty repetetive after a while
I think OP means skiing for fun, not to commute to work, run for groceries, or grab the mail.
skiing to commute to work?! Never heard of anyone doing that
Skiing.
