Acrylic paints are your friend here. They last a long while in their bottles and you can keep a palette for a few days when using a wet palette. start with just using a brush and jump up to an airbrush if you want to cover a bigger area or do fancy stuff (an air brush is far from required). As another commenter said, the minipainting community has a ton of resources, text and video tutorials, and willing to provide constructive feedback if you want it.
Just remember: thin your paints~

I've only been playing the past handful of games but it's a fun daily puzzle. I find it interesting that I either get sub 5 minute times or over 50 minute times. Lol
Hopefully they don't go out of their way to try to lock you into using their VTT. I'm not a fan of Roll20 myself but as long as they let Demiplane be themselves and keep it mostly open for third party plugins to do their thing, we should be alright in the long run.
I usually just deep clean once a year and wash the floor multiple times over until it's pretty clean. Then I let my robot vacuum/mop keep it mostly clean twice a week the rest of the year. The robovac helps enforce a cleaner lifestyle by ensuring things aren't left out and about. The floors will never be perfectly clean though, just the nature of life~
As for everything else, I set reoccurring calendar tasks to space it out but I try to do one area per weekend. Keeps cleaning manageable but regular.
Since you mention wanting to filter really well, I would recommend you take a look at chemex. It's a pour over type of brewer but their smaller model is for a single serving and will be more lenient with the pour method since the chemex filters are so dense. Other pour over brewers will require more of a setup to maintain consistency (but you can also tweak the brew to your exact liking in this regard!).
Water temp and grind size are somewhat critical for quality coffee but you don't need it right off the bat of course. I would get a grinder before a kettle, tbh; fresh grounds make a bigger difference than a few degrees difference in water temp. Do work on "calibrating" your water temp in whatever method you use, though. If you microwave the water, figure out how long to let it cool before it reaches 200 or whichever temp you find brews best for your beans.
Search for local roasters and buy some beans from them. Keep searching until you find a brand you like. Grocery store beans are very mid. (There are many weekly "drop" style bean shippers that are pricey but let you discover online roasters that will ship you beans; it's been invaluable for me to find really good roasts!)
As for cold brew, it's a separate beast entirely and I wouldn't explore it just yet. I used to make large batches for my nitro setup and did that in a bucket. Definitely super smooth but a bit more work. You can make smaller batches with a French press. I've always gotten my presses from IKEA because they're cheap yet effective. Far from fancy. I would never consider heating up cold brew personally.
From the article, you can get a detailed usage history of MTA transactions by simply supplying the credit card number (which they state can very often be bought on the dark web). The lack of identity confirmation to pull the report is the concern.
Unless it's a single origin bean, it's probably a blend anyway. I just blend the leftovers with the new beans and call it a good cup. I'll try to find a complimentary roast, though. e.g. mixing a light roast with a dark roast leads to an odd cup.
