What Would You Do With $100k?

Basically, I'm selling my home and I'll get ~$100k in proceeds. Typically, I'd be pretty conservative and just drop it in some Vanguard index funds, but I'm toying with the idea of doing something riskier. Honestly, I have no idea what that means so curious if you guys have any recommendations.

To caveat this 1) any proceeds are only a small portion of my overall portfolio so I have the flexibility to be a little risky and 2) yes I know I'm looking for advice from internet strangers lol.
