Fellas of Lemmy, what's your Every Day Carry (EDC)? (lemm.ee)

Those who don't identify as a fella also welcome to answer!

I'm getting tired of my wallet and I'm hoping to get some new ideas. Current EDC is my phone, wallet, and keys on a lanyard. Whatchu got?

Edit: I ought to be a little more specific with my EDC, since most people are kindly taking the time to do so.

Phone: Pixel 8 Pro Wallet: bulky leather wallet, I don't even remember the brand, I've had it so long. Keys: a stylized lanyard with various house keys, car key fob, and a keychain that reads "I hope your day is as good as my butt" from my wife. I have to keep that, you understand.

Misc: Burt's Bees chapstick, Listerine breath strips, and occasionally a utility knife depending on my destination.

My weird thing is I always carry fingernail clippers. I started doing it because I have a bad habit of picking at my cuticles, and it helps to keep my nails trimmed. I've learned that it's a weirdly useful tool, though. It can cut things in a pinch, but no one sees it as something dangerous needing to be confiscated for example.

Damn, maybe I need a pair. I have the same habit, including picking at nails. I always end up with a really shitty hangnail or bit of skin that stings.

Not gonna say it cured me, but it helped me a lot to minimize the damage. As soon as that little bit of skin starts to bug me and I get the urge to pick I can just clip it off instead.
