Did 3 of them already in the past two years, and was considering signing up for Pickleball.
I’m turning into a bog witch
I’ve let like half my yard grow out and turn into a de facto butterfly garden. I’ve got a birdbath where I leave shineys for the crow. It’s going pretty well, I recommend it.
I was gonna say, women have been getting sick of men and turning into bog witches for centuries now, probably longer. The more socially acceptable version was nunneries for a while, since men need to feel like they’re in control of that some way or another. I’m the city apartment version where I’m becoming a night shift vampire /other undead into tarot cards and Gnosticism.
I’m going bog witch, but I’m a dude, so I guess druid?
I’m a dude. I’m still calling it bog witch. If anyone has a problem with a dude witch they can kiss my ass.
I feel like witch accurately incorporates the spiteful aspect of nature-loving that I’m going for. I’d like to weaponize my yard.
You’re doing amazing.
Oh yeah I did that when I was like 18-20, it’s cool. Gnosticism and tarots are fun, I’m incorporating them into my middle aged dad bog witchery for sure.
I guess running. About 4 years ago, I started on the treadmill with an exhausting 30min/mi. Earlier this week I completed my first 7min/mi. Along the way, I added a 28min/5k@1.5% and am working on a 60min/10k (today did 62min/10k).
That’s awesome! Well done, and keep up the hard work. Don’t forget to stretch.
Japan? Does that just mean travel?
At avoidance of being real: no it means Japan.
We are all Japan on this day.
Konnichiwa bitches.
Fucking math.
Yes give me sudden urge to self-study linear algebra for shits and giggles. Ima go look at math memes now.
I nearly failed math my entire life wdym it will suddenly become interesting for no reason.
Hey… Wanna go down the geometry rabbithole?

It has points at infinity, area as a function of angle defect, a triangle whose angles sum to 0…
Try self-teaching yourself programming If you like math, you’ll greatly enjoy being able to apply it.
Cycling, linux and archery
The triathlon.
My midlife crisis: I bought a ten year old car and started fixing it myself.
I have bloody knuckles and bruised forearms and now a pretty bad oil leak but I replaced that goddamn turbo.
Stick with it, and soon you’ll have a rolling chassis with destroyed interior, body full of rust holes, a crippling Miller lite addiction, and lots of friends with similar rusty old beaters that just need a little TLC.
Yeah but she’ll sound awesome and handle like a dream
None of the above?
Strength training and returned to a hobby of my younger years - cars.
私も攻撃されたと感じる。。。
どうですね!
You forgot about bouldering / rock climbing
Just as I thought I weren’t a stereotype… oh well…
I don’t see “an increasingly difficult to ignore urge to bomb an oil pipeline” on here.
That comes under running , grad school and Japan
Oh wait. You said ignore…I had already committed and planned my escape to Japan
S Tier response
I feel like I’m doing the midlife crisis thing wrong. I’m factionless atm. I’m also too tired to have a crisis. My time is spent going to work and trying to survive in a field that is increasingly difficult to survive in.
I’m jealous some people have time and energy to have a full on crisis on the side. You lucky, lucky bastards.
Are you a software engineer
I friggin wish xD
Ehh the industry has gone to shit, wish for something better
I’m a software engineer and I’m doing pretty well with my ongoing quarter life crisis
Well good for you, I got sorted into Grad School for my midlife crisis, till I get another job
Where is the one for dating someone 15-20 years younger than you?
That’s a sub class, if you pick running then you’ll date a younger runner. If you pick Japan then you’ll date a young Japanese person etc.
Fucking legends
That’s the post divorce crisis
Grad school but I can’t afford it. Or running but my knees hurt so I got way too into bicycles
If your pedals have power meters, you’ve gone too far.
Jokes on you, my power meter is in the crank arm.
Which AI generated slop are you?
BDSM. I have integrated pretty quickly into the local community, and I’m a regular at munches and play parties.
Wait, BDSM is a group event?
I thought it was more like a partner tennis, not community soccer.
Think of it as more of a space where people can meet up and get freaky. 90 percent of the time is people standing around and chatting in fetish gear.
