Cool things you have in your cube/office

So I'm finally in an office and out of a cubicle. It's a pretty big office, 8'x12' roughly but I don't have new furniture in it yet. 2 cubicles were put up in here so I'm just using 1 until I get a desk. Just curious what you guys have in your office spaces. Anything cool or unusual. Pics or no pics. I've just started thinking about how I want to arrange things and thinking a little of what I want to put on my walls.

This is what I have in it now.
 
My office has basically been abandoned for 6 months so I would imagine nature has reclaimed it and a wild boar has taken up residence.

Prior to that I had a TV on the wall with a swivel mount and wireless video adapter for meetings which was useful.

People seemed to like the two ~6" Christmas trees I have for the holidays.

One wall has writeble paint on it which was useful at times but if you leave anything up too long (say for 6mo projects) it's a PITA to clean off.
 
I have an autographed picture of RMS on the wall, and a dead cedar sapling stuck in a snus can on top of the computer.
 
I work from home, it's where I cold-call from, it's where I edit photos, it's where I play records, it's where I game on my PS4. Get a few pieces of cool art to hang on your office walls, none of that cheesy motivational stuff, frame them and start from there.

I'm working from home since March 10....I went on vacation and got orders to not come back. My office opened back up, but returning to work was optional. I'm using a 15" laptop, paired with a 19" monitor (personal equipment) and RDP'ing in to the office.

I went to the office for the second time since March for a few hours today. Each time, I'm always amazed at how big the 3 monitors on my desk seem. (23" monitors for a Linux/Windows desktop) Just saying, no matter what you do, you gotta get some LARGE monitors and maybe a good Ergotron monitor stand.
 
Nothing cool for my current office, mostly because I'm there so rarely. My old office I had some prototypes on a long filing cabinet that looked pretty neato.
 
I think my first thing I'll get is a coat hanger. Nice to have when I'm wearing my suits for meetings, or when it's cold outside and come in. Found some cheap ones on Amazon. Not really "cool" but functional.

Oh and a space heater.
 
I used to have a smallish Northrop Grumman phased array radar antenna sitting on the upper shelf of my desk at my last job

Not in my office, but right outside there’s a “tech art” display that my group built that features a double pendulum on a linear track. The controller software a couple coworkers wrote can swing it upright and keep it stable indefinitely. Very odd to see even understanding how it works.
