If you could go back in time for 24h, no consequence on the timeline, what would you do?

I'll go first.
3 options
- Going back to 1964 to watch the Duke Ellington's Montreal show. Try to meet the man and the musicians. Hang around my city.
- Go in the end of the 70s to meet my parents before they had kids. Grab a couple of beers and party with my young adults parents. See my uncles, etc. in their young time
- Going to 1881 during the couple of days when Nietzsche wrote Zarathoustra. I want to discuss with guy even if he is supposed to be writing all day long. No consequence right.
What are yours?
EDIT: I'll clarify: You can't affect the timeline. It means you cant go back to try to get rich with stocks, lottery, etc. It's like going to see a movie, when you come back the world will be exactly the same. You can interact with people, but in the end, the day you spend in the past will not have existed for anyone but you, in your memories.

Prevent myself from being born.
You can't affect the timeline...
Maybe it's just for the catharsis.
It was for me...thanks for listening to my vent -.-
Dude just wants to see his parents smash
Or be a cockblock... never be a cockblock dude
Still worth a shot
But wait.....
❕Have to take in the ethics of generational trauma.
I would prevent my great grandmother from being born.
My aunt MS dx@27. Fibro@57 Me: fibro@34 Dad: 🧠 cancer@62
Before she died my grandmother told me she took care of her mother, her entire adult life, since she was bed bound.
Like wow, that's a nifty factoid to share with me.
Explains why she viewed me as lazy and couldn't emphasize with my multitude of pains/symptoms.
She also said she wished she had more children.
My oldest uncle was disowned keep in mind. I guess raising 4 kids with no father wasn't enough to fill her Catholic-Narcissist 💔 lol.
Anyway got her good, am gay and never procreating despite my best efforts.
Also didn't visit on her death bed.
Don't have to bother talking to the rest of the family either now that she's gone so thats also a plus.
Being born just because 2 people want a "family" is such bullshit.
Spoiler
That being said, would still pew pew Hitler while being filmed during the end of a speech right as people salute/clap for the prosperity fuck fascists and fuck Trump and the GOP
