That feeling
The fan on with the doona pulled up
Ankle scratches and earbuds
A hot shower in winter
Your first beer on a hot afternoon
A piss with a full bladder
Red cordial hungover
Rest after work
Downtime
The release of a new season of your favourite show
Finishing a project
The high after exercise
Competing with friends
Spending quality time with someone you love
A certain type of intimacy
Hugs and kisses
The right song at the right time
Good food
Waking up fresh
Finding a solution to a problem
Letting go
Acceptance
Washed and showered, teeth clean
Laying in the soft cool grass on a warm day
A nod, a wink or a smile
Going to bed tired and hitting the pillow
A good chat
A deep and meaningful conversation
The feeling that everything is ok.
IMPLODING KITTENS (EXPANSION PACK)
If you’ve got “Exploding Kittens” I recommend the expansion pack to spice up the game! **** 4.5 Stars
6477 Flexfit Blank Caps
I've worn these caps for years, good shape, good colours, no stupid advertising or logos, no straps, easy to curve, not flat brim. ***** 5Stars
NVIDIA Shield TV
The Shield TV is the best Android TV platform by far by the looks of it. I purchased a cheap $100 no-name Android TV which is just really buggy and the user control is crap, the only benefit is it comes with SHOWBOX, I'm not sure whether you can install SHOWBOX on Sheild TV, but I do wish I forked out the extra cash for it. The shield is still a great price for what it is and does.
Swatch Watches
While I admit some swatch design are a bit kitsch, there are plenty of designs which are just amazing, and they are solid and last. I've had at least 5 swatches over the years, my last one is called "Windfall", it's a nice watch.
SCRABBLE
A classic game that my wife and I enjoyed playing together until she got a huge score and retired! **** 4Stars
AUS Google Trends
Interesting insights into the Australian zeitgeist!
Chrome Plugin – Full Page Screen Capture
This will screen capture the whole webpage and spit it out as an image or PDF. Very handy!
Modafinil
I have sleep apnea so I can get this with a script, you can't get it legally otherwise, but there are plenty of overseas sites that you can buy it through if you know how to pay with cryptocurrency. Without Modafinil I wouldn't get half as much done, it keeps me alert and focused for longer without making me jittery.
The Guardian (Left Leaning News)
The guardian is a news source that advocates for life, not for themselves or for their group.
Telstra TV / Roku Streaming Device
The Roku is branded as Telstra TV in Australia, it allows you to watch a range of streaming services on your TV over wifi, you don't need a Telstra account to use it. It's a great product and cheap enough.
Tripod Phone Clip
Put your phone on a tripod easily or attach it to a gorilla pod and do some vlogging, I do both, they cost almost nothing and are very handy indeed.
Movie Selection Helper
Great way to pick a show if you're just not sure what to watch.
Sistema ‘Klip It’ Jug
These jugs are great! We have 4 to ensure we are never short of cold water.
Adobe Spark
Makes simple videos plus is a great way to make graphics for social media and for print. I love it! I pay $15/month, although you can get it for free if you don't mind their branding,
Cheap Finger LED’s
Great for light art photography.
Google News
Google News is a great News aggregator and if you have a Google account it will know your interest because they know everything about you, lol! The app version is great.
