Using Grindr to find a plug
I read this as "pug" thinking that you lost your dog and found it somehow using grindr and was about to ask you to share your story
i think skills is a more appropriate term than hobby, so i would say general repair and maintenance because it carries forward to so many things like changing a tire, fixing a door hinge, cleaning up after yourself
gardening (growing your own food is like printing your own money)
Vegetables are nothing like money though
an instrument
financial literacy
decent understanding of global history behind their mother country from at least the 20th century onward
one other language
add your pick of physical activity
p much has been this kinda stuff for centuries

i think carpentry would be a really cool one.
but for the basics cooking and some creative outlet like drawing, writing, pottery or origami

continuing on:
having multiple creative outlets that end up with tangible objects that exist in the world is a big one
this could be practical like mending your clothes sashiko style or throwing pottery. maybe it leans romantic rather than classical and you start learning amigurumi, painting/sculpting, etc...be a dabbler, never becoming elitist about your hobbies
study philosophy out of curiosity rather than rote obligation
own one tailored suit
basic computer literacy (looking at u gen z who sometimes dont know keyboard shortcuts or file structure or basic troubleshooting)
be conversationally bilingual
know common logical fallacies and be humble
learn the basics of tango dancing. (or your partner dance of choice) if you have no rhythm this will be huge, if you have confidence issues this will be huge
be an enjoyable person to have in a conversation. ask questions about others, don't always tell your own story
theres always more but this is a good start
make a serviceable endtable
This is more like a home owner type of vibe no?
it was just an example. if you can make an endtable you likely know how to cut, measure, sand, finish, glue, etc. and can therefore make a lot of thinsg regardless of your homeowner status
are you a renaissance man by this criteria?
in all but fitness, yes. i've had a lot of physical injuries and am constantly on a tightrope in that regard
