oh, definitely TNG-era Star Trek.
Socialist Space Utopia where I can be or do whatever I like anywhere I like, free of need and want? Sounds awesome!
What would I do? Explore the endless opportunities!
Star Trek Socialist Space Utopia
That’s something totally I’m up for too
That is until the occasional apocalyptic events (assimilated Earth in First Contact), or the upcoming Dominion War…
But if you’re living on a planet far from the fighting, sure there might be a slight change in your day-to-day, but you wouldn’t be consumed by it. Even living in the Alpha Centauri system would be far from the fighting but close enough in to be a core world in the Federation.
The Breen hit Earth in the Dominion War
Plus the Founders caused their own bout of chaos
well, technically, FC assimilated Earth happened in an alternate timeline, but you make a good point about the Domino War and wanting to avoid that. So, yeah, I’d want to arrive after that ended.
It was never said to be socialist. At best, the federation gave rations to its soldiers. I hate that little myth, its not canon.
You haven’t seen the same Star Trek as… well, everyone else.
Huh, I honestly forgot about that line. And I haven’t seen the movie in a decade or more.
My bad.
The Shire. I’d just live in my Hobbit hole, eat second breakfasts, and take long walks. Peaceful!
Bad thing about the shire is, in the books particularly, I get the feeling that the Hobbits are super judgy and talk shit about each other constantly behind their backs.
Which, given that the shire is so small and insular, checks out. What else are they talking about after they finish up about the weather or wondering when Gandalf will show up with fireworks again.
There’s definitely a hobbit HOA and they definitely suck.
So, a small town?
I moved back to the farm and my fucking god, everyone knows what everyone else is doing to the finest detail. It’s a little creepy. Oh, and anyone without a Facebook account has to be hiding something.
I don’t think it’s canon but didn’t Tolkien write sequels where the Hobbits are forced out of the shire by the expanding humans, eventually turning back into the nomadic harfoots they once were?
Probably one of the future utopias, where there is no need for material wealth, where we have reached the point of being able to upload (and download back again) our consciousness, so we can have virtual worlds and real ones. No scarcity. Where we’ve mastered wormholes for travel.
The Culture. Live as long as you want, as whatever gender you feel like at the moment, doing whatever you want, with all the recreational drugs you could ever want on tap in your brain, and no scarcity on a living ship touring the galaxy looking for interesting places.
And if you’re sick of all the utopia, there’s always Contact and SC.
On one of the Culture worlds, as depicted by Iain M Banks.
I’d just be one of the hedonist citizens though. If Special Circumstances suddenly wanted my involvement, I’d be ‘No, thanks!’
I’m having a hard time choosing between an Orbital or a GSV.
But then, I’m also effectively immortal, so why not both for a few thousand years?
The Matrix.
All of my fellow humans and brain driven meat related organisms love the matrix and would live to live there.
Don’t you, fellow human.
Totally not a bot. Just another radical human having normal human conversations about the matrix.
c/totallynotrobots?
Who’s to say you aren’t already living in it?
Harry Potter/Howarts, but in a boring ass house, or another generation where Voldemort or Voldemort gang are not seen.
Granted! But you are still a muggle with zero connection to the magic world. Your life remains unchanged
What did I do to you (•_•)
TBH even during Voldemort’s era I don’t think many normal folks were impacted except if they were in the wrong place at the wrong time or briefly when they took over the Ministry. So it’d of been pretty minor overall for your average wizard I think (correct me if I’m wrong, been a while since I read the books).
except if they were in the wrong place at the wrong time
Oh, so average LATAM experience, maybe I can cope with it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Discworld would be pretty dope, too. Just living my life there as a bystander or maybe become a wizard.

Same but then I remember that Anhk-Morpork is supposed to small awful. I’d visit but I can’t say I I’d want to live there. But if I could bring some luggage that’d be great.
Chilling with hobbits sounds pretty cool.
Eat lots of good, local food, drink loads of beer, smoke tons of weed out of sweet ass churchwarden pipes.
Dinotopia: cottagecore, atop a hadrosaur.
LOTR.
Would probably die there, tho.
The back to the future future without biff and with real hover boards. I’d do normal life
One without designer suffering.
Genshin Impact would be pretty sick
Only if you have a vision (or were godlike before visiting like a certain pair of twins)
Studio Ghibli
The world of Spirited Away would be top of my list
