I have to give a shout to starship.
I'm in the terminal all day, and with all the context switching from interruptions and meetings, having all the terminal context in my face really helps me settle back into the groove.
Sure there are dozens of other ways to do this, but a little config for a hundred different tools, all of which is customizable, makes it a pretty easy choice for me.
I'll give a second shout for tig. Ncurses git interface with vim-like navigation makes exploring, staging, stashing, etc. super easy and way faster than the CLI. Certainly not a replacement, but a magical enhancement.
Happened to us with one of our old ladies who passed a couple years ago.
She was walking around all hunched for a day or so, yowling at everything. We got lucky though, the vet used a rectal thermometer and that unclogged the pipes in quick fashion!
