I have a "This is Fine" dog Funko Pop on my desk at work. He works well for rubber ducky programming, and he encapsulates the feelings I typically have after dealing with some of my clients.
This isn't my picture, but it's a similar setup:

How that that doggo not have his own syndicated cartoon by now?
I bought this to hold my forklift certification card
Hands down: Mova globe.
I now how it works, but it still feels like magic. If I had to reduce my pleasure possessions to one item. That would be it.
I've got a bobble-head baby Groot. It's pretty handy to talk to, and it's a useful branch manager. Plus, it has root access.
lets be honest its your phone running a lemmy app.
Beliw the belt, brah 😅
I have a small diecast dumpster on my desk that people always comment on.
That is a pretty interesting piece. I'll have to remember die cast direct whenever I have some space and money to expand my model car collection
More monitors..you can never have enough monitors
I prefer one very large high resolution monitor to multiple.
And it simplifies the cabling a shit ton.
my gpu disagrees and doesn't want to do more than 4 :(
Time for another GPU then
How exactly does a newton's cradle help with focus? I never had one, and I think I'd end up focusing on the motion of it instead of anything else I'm supposed to be doing.
I like those things that are in weird shapes and filled with colored liquids that you flip upside down and does "cool stuff" lol
(I always forget what they're called)
The most satisfying thing when I need to fidget is something to take things apart and put back together. And the best things for that are ones that can be stripped and reassembled without me needing to look at them.
So far the best of best is this "multitool pen" I got for secret santa last year. It's nearly worthless for any of its advertised functions, but as a fidget toy I really like it.
Rubik's cube. I learned to solve it years back and got interested in speed solving. I just pick it up and solve it a few times throughout the day. It's also fun to fidget with.
On my desk, I have a Spring Duck.
If you don't know what a spring duck is, that's because I created it out of random shit that we found around the office. Specifically, a plastic duck, and a spring.
I have a yarn Yoshi amiibo that puts a smile on my face
I have the same thing on my desk that I keep inside a potted plant
Do tech decks count? I still fuck with tech decks.
You betchur goddamn ass they do :)
you mean those thumb skateboards? ive seen awesome tricks do you have a halfpipe on your desk?
I only have a quarter pipe, but I also have a rail.
cool. have you ever played the mobile game touchgrind?
In the before times I had several Lego Batman motorcycles on my work desk. Those are great fun, but live in my home space now.
I keep an hourglass. It's a good way to try and spend a particular amount of time on a task.
The Dynavap m7xl Rosium. I don't think you even have to know what a dynavap is or what its used for to appreciate its aesthetic appeal.
Its the most beautiful metal stick ive ever had the pleasure of holding. The way it changes color as it reflects light is so cool. You can just spin it around and fidget with the cap while watching the colors. I am considering get in a spinning base to put it on so I can watch it rotate automatically
Nice. I'm on the brink of buying a M7 to complement my collection. Do you think it's worth it? I probably won't showcase it on my desk.
I would never bring mine to the office but that is a nice piece! Titanium tip?
