Too bad support is ending soon. I'm also on pixel 5 with grapheneOS. I might go to calyxos after support ends and consider which phone to get.

My partner and I got an espresso machine earlier this year. It's great, I haven't gone out for a cup of coffee in months now

Pixel 6 Pro for GrapheneOS. Awesome phone.

Probably my table saw. I got a DeWalt jobsite saw and I've been using it for project after project all summer.

Sounds stupid compared to other stuff here, but a Traxxas TRX-4M 1/18 RC Scale Crawler. I bought it on a whim and then got into modifying it. I've been putting in a bit of money, but it's super fun to play with it and it gets me out of the house to explore the neighbourhood for some good places to crawl it.

An air cooler. I hate airco (and way to expensive) and got the tip at the hairdresser to get one. Great way to spend the giftcard I received when joining a union. (maybe the union subscription tops it, not sure yet)

Eufy robo vac. The cheaper model. It sets off at 3am each night and cleans the downstairs floors. Every morning I get up to a freshly vacuumed floor, it's magical. I hate hovering so worth every penny.

A bamboo back-scratcher.

My advice to people under 40: you won't always have the flexibility to scratch wherever it itches. Appreciate it while it's there.
