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.

    Eh! This thread just reminded me of something I’ve been meaning to buy, but only ever think about buying when I’m at work or something and not able to get online to make the purchase:

    https://www.redcross.org/store/cpr-keychain-with-face-shield-and-gloves/ARC-CPR-03.html?cgid=cpr-masks-and-face-shields

    Key-chain pouch with a CPR face barrier that has a one-way valve.

    I’ve never had to give CPR outside of a hospital environment, but there it’s much more controlled w/ supplies readily available like a resuscitation bag that you just slap onto the patient’s face and squeeze to give breaths. I know how to do the field version without any supplies, but when you give breaths in that scenario, YOU are the resuscitation bag, and it’d be nice to be prepared to give rescue breaths without needing to worry about shit like picking up herpes off some dying stranger’s face.

    Also CPR is NOT hard to do or learn, so if I’ve piqued your interest and you’re not already familiar with it, plug your city in here (https://www.redcross.org/take-a-class) and set it to CPR and see what’s in your area. Price varies a lot, but expect $30-$100 (WHY ISN’T THIS FREE/SUBSIDIZED?!). Learn some shit, get that cert, save a life. Make sure the class you sign up for good for first-timers and not a refresher course; and I STRONGLY recommend doing in person vs online so you can practice on a dummy with an instructor present to let you know if you’re fucking something up.
