I'm related to Jesse James (the old west train robber, not the TV guy born in the 60's) so that's pretty ripe material for a documentary if one hasn't already been made.

I'd say definitely. The first useful thing I printed was during the pandemic where all the paper towels you could get were those z fold ones you see in office building bathrooms. Suffice to say, most people don't have a container at home for those types of paper towels, so I mocked one up that was like a home tissue box and printed it out. Saved myself 80+$ on making one instead of buying one on Amazon (also they're all wall mounted and I didn't want to do that)
Since then I've printed toilet paper roll holders, plant pots, catch all bowls, insulated drink holders, tie racks, jewelry racks and boxes, all manner of things I use almost every day, and I've learned about 3d modeling as a result (not really good yet but still) so win win.
Edit: I'd say at this point I've definitely printed more than how much the printer costed in terms of things I use. Printing mini figures and scenery for tabletop games alone has exceeded the cost it would have been to buy that stuff.
Yes I have an fdm and a resin printer, but they've both got a lot of good use and yes absolutely worth it.

I ran out of brain but maybe I'll add more when I wake up.
They are indeed unfortunately expensive. I'd start with one and if they're as perfect as you're looking for, just do the slow replacement. I just buy one every time an existing pair of old undies starts getting too old and eventually you are all set.
Maybe being bi is an influence on this, but I almost always play females when possible because, most of the time, the male characters are so overly masculine and that doesn't appeal to me. Androgynous qualities are always what I've looked for when character customization is possible. In those cases I will sometimes play a male character, unless the customization is not varied enough (looking at you fallout 4) but when customization sucks or isn't an option, I'll go female every time.
And yes, if sex/romance is possible in the game I will slut it up with everyone I possibly can. Best of both worlds babyyyyyyy!
Edit: To give clarity on the line between too masc/fem, If you had the option to play as Zelda or Link in botw/totk, I'd play as Link (yes I know that playing as Zelda wouldn't make sense, just go with me here.) So while I'm not egg, I think what I am taking way too long to say is I understand and support everyone's decisions for their character choice in a game (even if it's just to peep that badonk)

Just in case you weren't aware, that Futurama episode was loosely based on a real life dog that waited for his master at the train station every day for years after the humans death

They are too good for us and we don't deserve them, but I'm glad we have them in our lives.

Nexusmods. Don't want to pay for it so it's the least I can do.
