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.

I treat my cargo shorts like a purse.

Phone in one pocket

Wallet in a side pocket. Started doing this on a vacation in a foreign city to be less pick-pocketable, and turns out I love it.

Another pocket contains a fuckload of little stuff. Earbuds, lip balm, contact solution eyedrops, weed pen, breath spray, car key, set of house keys and some others in a folding keyring to which I have also attached my eBike battery key and eBike lock key.

Oil-absorbing paper in another pocket, great for keeping the adult acne at bay.

Cargo shorts make me a card-carrying member of the Dork Squad, but damn do I love them. I can even fit my Switch in there if I want to.

Oil-absorbing paper

Sometimes I'll get so oily, I fear the United States is about to launch an invasion on me. Do you have a brand or kind you recommend? Those might benefit me.

These are what I use.

I can’t compare or contrast because they’re the only kind I’ve used. My wife introduced them to me. But I really like them!
