Shoes and shirt, or no service otherwise.

My glasses. I can't see without my glasses

Generally positive attitude

I always leave mine at home so it doesn't get ruined.

"Testicles, spectacles, wallet, and watch"

Keys, glasses, wallet, and phone.

My parrot....I'm a pirate 🤫.

It's funny, for years my list was keys, wallet, and phone, and of those it's the keys that go back the furthest. I had a key to my parents house when I was a young teen, and I've always carried keys with me since (I'm in my 60s now). I sold my house a couple months ago, and I've been living in a hotel until I close on a condo, and it feels so strange not to own any keys now, just the key card for the hotel.

Phone + Insulin pen.

My sensor is stuck to my arm anyways, so I'm not counting that.

I have ADHD so I get rid of most problems by literally tying things to myself. I have a second belt which goers over my pants and have a hip bag attached to it. In that I have the following;

Disposable nitrile gloves (3-4 pairs)

Hand sanitiser

Power bank (10000mAh)

USB C cable

Thumb drives (one with kids shows, one with software, one blank)

USB A to C adapter

Wallet

ID lanyard

Emergency cash (not in wallet because if I lose my wallet I still have my cash)

Tissues

Aspirin, paracetamol, and ibuprofen

Ritalin

Plastic bags for rubbish

Nasal inhaler (for blocked nose, long term issue)

Car and house keys (attached on a clip, not inside)

Then I have my pockets for phones (I have 2), wireless headphones, and anything else for the day.

By keeping my keys attached I cannot get in the car without my belt bag.

Clothes, unfortunately. If I go out nude, the nation will bankrupt itself trying to get a front-row viewing of this show~

• keys
• phone
• wallet
• pocket knife
• full tang knife
• multi-tool
• water bottle
• med kit
• tiny pocket screwdriver
• charging block and cables
• flashlight
• fleshlight
• towel

The ideal list of stuff (sometime I forget or not have time):

• Phone
• Keys
• Pepper Spray (am a non-white dude, live in US, but don't feel ready to carry a gun yet, don't wanna get too depressed and shoot myself lol)
• wireless earbuds
• some hand sanitizers to clean my hands in case I need to touch a bathroom doorknob and there's no paper towel to let me open it without getting nasty shit on my hand (anyone else germophobic?),
• hopefully I remember my power bank and the cable

There is nothing I always take with me, but I usually have my phone and underwear. Everything else is up in the air.

Well sometimes nothing if I am with my husband, that is so awesome. But if it's just me - keys and phone are my usual gear, phone can pay for stuff. Bike lock if I am on the bike; purse with all my purse stuff if I'm driving the car.

Stuff in my purse is wallet with ID and cards, vitamins and medicines, hair stuff and lip balm, sunscreen, a Rubik's Cube, a crow whistle and dice, glasses cleaner and sometimes sunglasses.

Everytime? Depends on what I am doing. Is it a walk, bikeride, or drive?

Each has different requirements.

Glasses. That is the one thing that is on the list for all trips.

Wallet: drive. License: bike. Helmet: bike. Walk, maybe nothing but glasses.

Phone about half the time for any of those things. Trying to not bring it as much. The thing you miss most with a phone while out when you don't have it is the ability to take pictures.

Nitroglycerin :(

Glad issues were found when they were though and am consistently getting better :)

Clothes. Mostly because public nudity is frowned upon by some people.

Wallet, phone, keys.

Keys suck ass though. I can get in through my garage or keypad on the front door. I've got a key hidden in case the power is out. However, I have to carry these giant blocks that let me start my truck or SUV. I hate them. I HATE carrying a giant block in my pocket. I wish I could just have an old style key to start my truck.

I have a sling bag that keeps everything I EDC other than my phone and knife. So phone, knife, and bag is all I think of before leaving home. In my bag:

• EpiPen
• Wallet
• Keys
• Currently my newborn’s temp health card
• Leatherman
• Meds (pain meds, nausea meds, etc)

I’d like to get a decent flashlight and a decent pair of earbuds (either wireless or USB-C wired) so those probably in the near future. Otherwise I think that’s it other than random misc stuff I need to take out (receipts etc).

Obviously also stuff I wear (clothes, wedding ring, watch) but that’s always on.

I keep most of my “EDC” stuff in my bag — chapstick, keys, hand sani, etc.

If I’m going out for a while and I expect it to get dark, I like to pack a flashlight.

I used to carry a knife but sometimes it makes going into bars and clubs awkward so I usually leave it at home now

Needed: keys.
Optional: wallet, phone

I carry like $2 in change in my right front pocket, and have for as long as I can remember. I cannot leave the house without it anymore - it feels like something is wrong. I also would struggle to tell you the last time I ever NEEDED physical change. It's more of a novelty than anything at this point, but it's part of my routine.

Minimally...keys, wallet, phone. Usually I'll wear my wedding ring unless I'm just going out to grab something and back.

So I end up counting "one, two, three, four" while touching each of these things. The problem comes when I need to bring one more thing (headphones, etc). I'll count to four again and leave but be missing something else. My brain is terrible and I hate it.

Keys, wallet, phone. Depending on where I'm going, shopping bags, emotional support toy

Keys, wallet, phone, vape. Pants are optional, but they do help with carrying the other stuff.

Backpack. partially to hold the essentials: phone, kleenex, keys, wallet, headphones. And well, you never know if you'll pick something up and the backpack will come in handy

Wallet, smartphone, headphones, 36 oz water bottle (topped off), keys if I'm driving somewhere.

Oh, and I double-check to ensure I'm fully (properly) clothed and wearing my glasses. I've definitely made it as far as my car, before realizing I'm still wearing pajama pants.

And my vision is not that bad, so I can roam my house without glasses. But once I hit the open road, I suddenly realize I can't see anything.

When I was in the military, I used to carry a multitool (eg. Leatherman) on my belt everywhere I went. But now that I'm a retired civilian, it just causes problems if I need to explain why I have a knife on me.

Even though it's a multitool, everyone just sees it as a blade. And I'd rather not have someone confiscate it. When you're wearing a military uniform, no one questions it. But I've definitely been stopped in some stores because I was carrying it in civilian clothes.

My wife also bought me a lockpicking set, but I don't know how to use it yet, so I removed it from my keychain. No sense carrying it around if I can't use it. Maybe once day...

Phone, wallet, paper tissues

It depends on what we're doing and where we're going. If it's something quick or I'm going to be busy while I'm there, then I'll just take a pair of headphones and two of my android devices, one to listen to music on the way there and back, and another to play games while I'm there if I can. If we're going to be gone for a while, I'll take all of my android devices, my controller, a keyboard and mouse, my tablet stand, and some USB cables and adapters. I would take some other devices, but for right now, android devices are the only portable devices I have that I actively use.

Keys, I want to get back in eventually.

Everything else depends on where I'm going.

Clothing, wallet, car keys, phone (for MfA purposes), ennui.

• Phone
• Wallet
• Glasses case
• Keys

One for every pocket of my trousers so if something is missing I always notice on time

Nothing. Every single item is dependent of what I am doing.

If I go for a walk, the only thing I will bring with me is my dog and a leash (maybe some dog treats.)

• phone
• wallet
• keys
• vape pen
• wedding ring

The last one is specifically mentioned because I don't generally wear it at home, I become way too aware of it in my hand and it starts irritating.

For same reason if I'm about to leave the house without it, I become very aware of something missing and "feeling naked" without it.

If I'm going cycling, I usually leave wallet home and instead just grab bank card and ID card with me in fannypack with the rest items mentioned.

• phone
• wallet
• keys
• lꝏp earplugs
• neck strap attached to case for above

… yes that's literally it !

• phone
• wallet
• keys
• wireless earbuds

Keys, phone, wallet, smokes, lighter.

That's about it.

Earbuds.

I recently took up running, and when I did that I decided I was just going to wear my smartwatch and earbuds. I leave my phone in the house, I leave my keys in the garage (there's a keypad on the garage door), I don't even take the case for the earbuds.

When I go out for any reason other than running, I always take my phone, wallet, keys, earbuds, chapstick, a pen, and nail clippers. (I don't know why on that last one, but I've had a pair for my whole adult life, except when traveling by plane, and they come in handy a lot). I usually also wear my watch, but sometimes I forget to charge it and it has to stay on the charger.

So the only common item in those two lists is the earbuds.

In the vein of your positive attitude, I also try to always take with me a realization that everyone else is fighting a battle, too.

Keys, phone, wallet. Watch if needing to know the time is relevant on my trip.

I'm a simple man.

Wallet, buck knife, mini tape measure. Utter cynicism.

Phone, car keys, bluetooth earbuds, snus. And the jacket I wear almost everytime I leave the house contains: card holder, a multi-tool, misc markers, a USB stick, and a pen.

Keys, wallet, phone, pick set (licensed locksmith and it comes in handy), pocket knife. Usually leave the last 2 at home if I am planning on going to anything with security checks.

Wallet, keys, phone, pocket knife, smile.

For anything more than a short walk I always grab: Water bottle (or 2), hand sanitiser, wallet, phone, and keys. I don't like being thirsty.

Phone, wallet. Keys if I need to drive. YubiKey if it makes sense.

My list is exactly the same as yours! Phone, wallet, keys, airpods, and leatherman

Phone, keys, wallet, testicles, spectacles

• Keys
• Phone
• Headphones
• E-Cigarette
• Steam Deck (I am pretty anxious when many people are in the subway - playing keeps my stress level down)

keys, wallet, bookbag containing medication, e-bike charger, tools to fix flat bike tire, steam deck, phone, and bluetooth earbuds.

Glasses, keys, wallet, phone.

I always do the pat check to make sure I have my wallet, phone, and dick

Phone, Wallet, keys, pen, watch, Leatherman.

Spectacles Testicles Wallet Phone

My purse has all sorts of things in it. The most useful are the pen light, stubby multi-bit driver, utility knife, and multi-bit electronics driver. That with chargers, and usb cables (A, C, and micro).

Of course that is in addition to what one would typically find in a ladies’ purse. I also have my nicotine products in there.

Every few weeks I sort through what is in there. It’s too bad that it is not really socially acceptable for cishet guys to have a European carry-all.
