items I try to keep our home low-tech, but some things just make life easier — these are the ones that actually earned a spot.
I love over-ear headphones too, but sometimes you just want something less bulky — and these are perfect for that. They plug straight into your USB-C iPhone port with zero converters needed, and honestly? No more Bluetooth interfering with your brain...
Skullcandy Jib USB-C Earbuds w/Mic Bone
Not exactly technology, but it all sits on top of it! I love not having a mouse pad that my hand sits half off of, ya know? This thing keeps my wireless keyboard in place plus acts as a mouse pad and makes my whole desk feel more elevated and profess...

Waterproof Airtag Holder for Dog & Cat Collar
This is one of those gifts that turns absolutely anyone into a bird person whether they meant to or not — it’s a solar-powered bird feeder with a 2K camera built in that sends your phone an alert every time a bird shows up, automatically identifies t...
INKCKU 2K Solar Bird Feeder Camera Blue
The unglamorous but absolutely necessary purchase — I keep one in my bag, one at my desk, and give one to a kid who will inevitably lose it within 48 hours. Plug and play, works great with my favorite over-ear headphones on my USB-C iPhone without sa...
USB C to 3.5mm Headphone Adapter 3 Pack
I genuinely love these — over-ear, foldable, lightweight, built-in mic, and a tangle-free nylon cord that’s nearly 5 feet long, all for a price that makes you do a double take. The sound quality and comfort are way better than I expected and they fol...
