A Logitech MX Master 3. Needed a more ergonomic mouse to help chill out some of the carpal tunnel symptoms I've been getting recently, and boy was my old mouse not all that supportive now that I try to hold it
Have you considered using one of those vertical mice?

I'm not a fan personally but I've had coworkers who had carpal tunnel symptoms (a couple to the point of wearing wrist guards while working) who really liked them.

I have considered it, but I'm not a fan either. The wrist position is nice, but the finger position/movements would require double the effort to use. My old mouse (A Corsair Scimitar Elite) simply didn't fill the hand very well with the way I had to hold it. The MX Master 3 is much larger, curved better, and more sensibly designed. Fills the palm wonderfully too. So in terms of ergonomics, it's been a big improvement already (Thankfully)

Bought myself a new computer chair.


I needed a new one and the company I work for gives us $200 to buy an office chair for our work from home set ups so this fit neatly into the budget.

Should arrive in a few days. It'll be nice to have something with better lumbar support. I've been finding my posture getting worse as the pandemic goes on.

An Electro-Harmonix Oceans 11 reverb pedal.
It's a fantastic little effects unit with a pretty wide array of reverb types and parameters to tweak given the size and price. Also it goes full wet.

Just got in some more gaming books. Splicers: I Am Legion, Rifts Coalition States: Heroes of Humanity, Bizantium and the Northern Islands, and Garden of the Gods. All are from Palladium Books. One for Splicers, one for Rifts and two for the Palladium Fantasy Game.

Did I mention that I like Palladium Books and their work? I like Palladium Books and their work.

A pair is 30inch monitors to replace some old 24inch units. 3m and 5m DisplayPort cables for said monitors. I need a 5m USB-A to USB-B powered so I can run the USB hub in my existing 34inch screen so I don’t need extension USB leads for the keyboard and mouse.

I enjoyed season 1. I hear Season 4 has more action in it than the first 3 combined. I will check it out.

I bought the COVID relief humble bundle. Baba is you is fun.
I hate that they don't offer the $1 and other levels allowing me to buy as much as I want. $20 for me is steep, and a lot of the games in that bundle I already have. Dang it. Baba is you sounds interesting.

I have been using the MX master 2s for a while now, and to be honest it's worth every penny. I am not sure, I even want to upgrade to the 3.

Here is a side-by-side comparison of the two together. If you already have the 2S and are happy with it, I say stick with it until it craps out. Then maybe consider the Master 3 after that. Starting out between the two options however, the Master 3 sounded like the superior choice for a first time MX Master mouse buyer like myself. I really like it so far though, it's one of the better mice I've used, and it's finally a mouse I like that doesn't have the low quality stink of gaming mice I was used to

Since getting a full refund on the wrong region code Blu Ray they sent me of Kill La Kill, I went to Amazon and bought three old-school action films on Blu Ray:

A water jug with a freezer stick.
Secret of NIMH (Blu Ray) and SS: Hell to Pay (Blu Ray). Both movies I got for $1, because I got them at a Family Dollar.
