Shout out to Brinks for providing this product for review, my opinions are my own.
Quality: The quality of this 1.85-inch aluminum bathroom door hook is noticeable right out of the package. The door hook is durable... leaving no worries about it bending like a lawn chair if you hang a suit, dress, robe, travel bag, etc. This is more so a commercial product so it's shaped in a way that allows you to easily place clothing with hangers on it.
Design: When it comes to the design, I like the compact squared design of this door hook. When looking at it head-on... it looks like a little square and can blend in with a design without simply looking like a hook. The satin stainless steel finish is nice and ready for your shop's dressing room, bathroom, or wall. This isn't advertised as a hook for the wall, but... as an artist, I would use two to four of these hooks and place them side by side or even running vertically for a functional design in a shop or in a modern posh closet. A vertical design can either showcase the various colors a particular outfit has or... it could represent your selected wears for the week. Do I have a passion for fashion? It's possible.
So don't look at this product as if it's solely something for the restroom or for commercial purposes. Creativity goes a long way. In terms of using this in the home setting, you're good to go if your metal accents have a similar finish and you seek for it to be cohesive. If you don't plan to alter the finish to something you currently have or plan to have, just know that this product only has one color option.
Installation: The Brinks Commercial Restroom Door Hook took me less than 10 minutes to install. The longest part was screwing out and screwing in the front plate of the hook... which wasn't long at all, just don't screw it out too far to avoid it falling out:
Price: Price-wise, you can get the Brinks Commercial Restroom Door Hook for... $10 which falls in line with door hooks. Of course, door hooks vary in design, but if you like this particular design... grab it here.
When it comes to building a website, there are a plethora of options available in the market. However, two platforms that have gained immense popularity over time are Wix and Squarespace. Both of these platforms offer a comprehensive set of features and tools that make website building a breeze for users. But the question arises, which one is the better web builder? Let's dive in and explore the differences between the two.
Wix & Squarespace are cloud-based website builders that offer an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. They are great options for those who are new to website building and don't possess any coding skills.
With Wix, you can choose from over 800+ templates and customize them to your liking. It also offers a robust app market that allows users to add features to their website such as a live chat, social media integration, and more.
Wix example
On the other hand, Squarespace is a platform that offers 165 templates. It offers a range of templates that are perfect for creative professionals and businesses that want to showcase their work in a visually stunning manner. Both website builders provide a range of features such as built-in SEO tools, analytics, and e-commerce capabilities.
Squarespace example
In terms of pricing, Wix offers a free plan that comes with ads and limited features. Its paid plans start from $16 per month and go up to $159 per month. Squarespace, on the other hand, does not offer a free plan but provides a 14-day free trial. Its paid plans start from $16 per month and go up to $49 per month.
Wix includes 250 double-sided 300gsm Business Cards in both plans with delivery worldwide. Not sure if it's 250 business cards every month, but I recommend contacting the company.
Wix also includes the bandwidth to stream your video content without allegedly slowing down your site.
Squarespace includes the ability for your customers to check out under the same domain, Wix isn't exactly specific on whether that is an option.
Squarespace also includes product waitlists, low-stock alerts, and more. What is more? We're not exactly sure, but Squarespace claims to include tools that help you increase sales.
When it comes to customization, Wix offers more flexibility as it allows users to drag and drop tons of elements wherever they want on the page. Squarespace, on the other hand, has a more structured approach to website building, which can limit customization options for some users.
Wix gives more options, it may overwhelm some users and possibly intimidate them regardless of the template.
Squarespace is a bit more simple in terms of customizations, but it's a bit easier to digest with the square grid guides and easy-to-understand options.
In conclusion, both Wix and Squarespace are excellent website builders, but the choice ultimately depends on the user's needs and preferences. Wix is the winner in terms of options, and features, but Squarespace is no slouch.
Unholy has its moments as a horror puzzle FPS hybrid with stealth and exploration. The storyline could easily translate into a low-budget horror film. Regrettably, it falls short in nearly every aspect, leaving me with little enjoyment outside of my curiosity about its ultimate outcome. The game's few redeeming qualities are quickly overshadowed by a multitude of issues, particularly noticeable in the subpar voice acting.
To be fair:This is probably the most ambitious title the indie developer has ever made in their pursuit to grow as a studio, so in that aspect, improvements have been made, but we shall see what lies ahead. In the future, enjoyment has to be a priority. On the bright side, updates and a lower price tag would make it an easier pill to swallow.
Open the doors between your everyday reality and a dark unholy world to unveil the mystery of the disappearance of your child. Explore both worlds to find clues, solve puzzles, decide whether you infiltrate or fight brutal enemies, and stand up to an aberrant establishment.
Two parallel worlds to explore. The grey and cold reality on a brutalist post-soviet Eastern European town and the creepy and twisted world of Unholy, a grotesque society ruled by a relentless priest caste.
An unsettling horror experience driven by an intense narrative with captivating visuals based on the works of reputed dark artist Tomasz Strzałkowski (Duality Games Art director and founder)..
A unique gameplay blend that combines meticulous exploration, intriguing puzzle solving, infiltration and stealth with innovative shooting dynamics.
A versatile unique weapon. Use four different emotions: anger, fear, sadness and desire to interact with the environment (destroy obstacles, trigger mechanisms, overload circuits, illuminate your way) or to confuse, lure or damage your opponents.
Masks! Everybody in the unholy world hides behind a mask and it can be the difference between life or death. Build your own mask to get new skills and improve your abilities or wear other masks to infiltrate, confuse your enemies and impersonate your opponents.

Gaming as a family is a great way to bond and spend quality time together. I actually met a mom and her son in December of 2023 and motivated her to not only get a Nintendo Switch for her son but... also look forward to taking advantage of their time together by joining in on one of his favorite pastimes. That's the goal, bond, talk, laugh, enjoy your family time... and make memories that will last a lifetime. As mentioned before... gaming can be a great way to teach kids about teamwork, problem-solving, and competition in a healthy and fun way.
In addition to games relieving stress and delivering fun, there are some titles that provide additional benefits that most movies & TV shows don't deliver. You can learn different languages, how to build computers, how to type or improve WPM's, and then some.
In the case of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, your children learn about teamwork, which is a great thing to instill at an early age so that they know the importance of working with others and not feeling as if they have to do everything alone. Serve up some cheddar-filled mushrooms and other goodies and enjoy your family game night!
Super Mario Bros. Wonder... features 4-player fun that not only gives you the ability to take on baddies on the road to fighting big bad Bowser, but you can revive each other while taking on these colorful stages and their varying challenges. This will certainly come in handy for some during those difficult times on this wonder-full adventure.
In addition to Mario & Luigi, you also have Princess Peach + Princess Daisy representing for the ladies, team Toadstool which includes Toadette + the Blue & Yellow Toads, and Nabbit. Nabbit is one of those characters for individuals who want to join in on family fun... but don't exactly have the noticeable skills to pay the bills. Why? Well, he's invincible, so... no worries about him taking L's, but I still feel like he should be reserved for the individuals who would normally watch from the sidelines. He could be a great stepping stone for them, potentially challenging them to use one of the main characters one day.
This game also features the Yoshi crew, which adds another level of fun. Yoshi allows you to eat enemies, and items, carry other players, and more. Speaking of items on this crazy adventure... you have things like:
Elephant Fruit, which allows you to transform into an elephant able to swing its trunk and trounce enemies, but also other cool moves like smashing through bricks from the side.
Bubble Flower does exactly what you assume, you can use bubbles to defeat baddies or bounce on them to get over certain areas with less effort or reach new heights.
Drill Mushroom gives you the ability to not only drill through the ground like... Mr. Driller, but also through the ceiling... and the list of power-ups goes on.
The replay value goes a long way, which includes badges:
Action Badges - Grants an additional action to your character, like a Parachute Cap that lets you float down slowly after a jump.
Boosts Badges - Gives your character an additional passive ability, like earning coins for defeating enemies.
Expert Badges - This grants an advanced skill to your character, "experts only!".
What's different about this experience compared to other games like New Super Mario Bros games... is what it offers as far as creativity goes. You'd think we were on the dev team with the way they've dialed up the weird in this game, but... to be honest I also get that Super Mario World feeling too. Speaking of which... I'd love to see a Super Mario World remake either in full 2D or 3D. Super Mario Bros. Wonder is available now. Grab a physical copy or a digital copy.
