Volunteer, hands down. Local community stuff, create something akin to a co-op public broadcasting channel, spend time with my animals, bake and donate goods.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Probably continue to work in transpiration with special needs school kids. My job isn't so much about money to me at this point I'm deeply emotionally invested.

I'm into bird watching, so I'd want to travel to see new ones and what have you.

I would want to craft more.

I would read more.

I would take language lessons

I would work on that book idea

I would take classes on anything that interested me.

I would want to have a small farm, I just think it's neat.

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 2 points 1 month ago

I would walk my dog, lift weights, study foreign languages, help my community

[–] Zonetrooper@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

You know those people who restore old machinery and equipment? Locomotives, historic warships, industrial sites and so on? I'd absolutely be dedicating my day to that. There's something so satisfying about seeing that old stuff work, but they're always chronically understaffed and struggling to keep up with everything.

Oh, and write a novel.

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Do so much more with horses Video games Art

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Still work but at a reduced rate and else I would actually think about volunteering or improving my living conditions like a garden or tech at gome :)

[–] seeigel@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

Without joking, most likely I would watch more Lemmy.

[–] calcopiritus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I would still be programming. Just that it would be the projects I want to do, instead of the ones my employer wants to do.

[–] Redacted@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Streamer but in like a chill way, no subs

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I'd follow Phish in concert

[–] GarboDog@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Would study and do arts and use our findings and research to help improve the world in some kind of way, even if its a little.

[–] Brotha_Jaufrey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Start painting or some shit idk

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Travel, meet with friends, play video games, watch some movies.

[–] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 1 points 1 month ago

Also my research but with less bs

[–] vin@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 month ago

Politics. Gotta ensure that utopia survives and expands

[–] Delvin4519@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Move to Canada, Europe, or Aus/NZ.

Most likely scroll through Lemmy and play video games, pursue hobbies.

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

write music and go fishing

[–] LordCrom@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Kung fu, charitable volunteering, and any intellectual challenge I could take on.

[–] figjam@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago

I'd probably teach something like scuba diving.

play more games learn to draw maybe pick up a new language.

[–] dumblederp@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Study more JiuJitsu and physiotherapy for poor people.

[–] marx2k@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'd dive fully into circuitboard electronics

[–] DCErik@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Join a 3rd band, I guess.

[–] JayGray91@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Sounds like it would have to be free or low cost hobby. So probably I'd go hiking, and camping while reading books and making coffee with my aeropress

Basically yurucamp. A nice cosy anime. You should watch it

If there's somehow a way in this utopia scenario to also maintain a moped like a Honda supercub or vespa, add that as well as I cruise around between hiking and camp sites

Yes I can do that right now but you know how it is what it is

[–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

Build things, well, until I get tired of it. The ADHD is strong and I hate fine finish work.

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I would build affordable housing.

[–] olafurp@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'd spend more time playing guitar and chess and spend more time with my son.

[–] Rin@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I'd make things like drones or robots or something.

[–] redwattlebird@lemmings.world 1 points 1 month ago

Make video games or digital interactive art pieces for VR
