The home page of The Storygraph shows 4 random options from your TBR pile whenever you log in, and I've been finding that actually makes older titles feel new and shiny again, like a grab bag of things I've already decided I wanted to read but may have forgotten about. I'm a mood reader too and sometimes something will pop out at me and it feels like the right time to read it.

If you don't use The Storygraph, you could randomly choose some books from your TBR (close your eyes and point! choose some random numbers and find which books fall at those points on your list!), or as Lyn suggested, I've gone back to the very beginning of my TBR to see if something jumps out at me (or even whether it's time to take it off the list). Looking forward to hearing others' suggestions!

Oh, how I identify with all 5 of your points. I don't think readers ever have enough or too many books. The shiny new covers get me every time and I find myself checking out book from Libby when I see books that sound interesting. I have more books checked out than I could read in a month. What a life!
