Bidet

Solar Panels

VR headset (originally to socialized during covid but ended up completely renewing my interest in video games)

Electric Scooter (an adult sized one with suspension). Ended up selling my ICE car when I realized the scooter isn't just for fun.

Bidet is a total game changer. I understood its real value during covid when people where fighting for TP lol

Would love to hear more about this. And which headset you own.

Actually ended up meeting someone in vrchat. She moved to my state and we've been together since. Started with a Quest 2. Got a Pico 4 a year later. Looking to get a Pico 5 next year.

What scooter? And are you in an urban area? I love my little taiwanese scooter, but there's no way it could replace my car.

They (I actually bought two) are some no-name chinese scooters off Amazon. I'd link them but they're no longer available.

Basically, wide deck, dual shocks for each tire, headlight, tail light, break lights, horn, twist throttle, 500W motor, folds down to easily fit in an RV storage compartment/trunk. Get around 12 miles on a charge at 20mph.

Perfect for small grocery runs, short trips, exploring areas where traffic/parking is shit.

Often times my gf and I will take the RV somewhere, use that as home base and travel the area on scooters. Great way to visit tourist traps without the hassle.
