My people (turtles) demand I show reverence to our ancestors, so I carry a backpack everywhere at all times.

What does everyone carry while out and about on a normal day?
For me, the standard keys, phone, wallet⊠and a 20k power bank, charging cables, tissues, mints, and a couple of items for my wife.

Cendana@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago

Hello! I donât post as much here but rest assured I lurk here daily :)
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Phone, wallet, nicotine lozenges, couple of tissues
tombruzzo@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Iâm a wallet, phone, keys guy. No bag, and nothing more than my pockets can carry
TinyBreak@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Toss in AirPods and yep thatâs me too.
Aradina@lemmy.ml âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Phone, house key, every receipt Iâve absentmindedly shoved into my bag over the years
Cendana@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Nowâs the time to clear it out. đ
Baku@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Depends if Iâm travelling light or heavy. Light day out (shops or quick trip) phone, wallet, keys, maybe headphones or earbuds. Heavy (all day outing) phone, 2 powerbanks, charger (cable + brick), panadol, headphones, water bottle, light snack (unless Iâm planning on eating out), change of underwear and sometimes shirt
I also keep a go bag in case things go south and I need to bail quickly which contains all of the above + 2 changes of clothes, some cash, a few snacks, and an extra powerbank (so 3 in total)
Cendana@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
So many power banks. Whatâs the capacity of each?
Iâll talk to my wife about doing up a go bag or two together.
Baku@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I believe theyâre all 10,000MaH, but I do something called wardriving/net stumbling a lot (basically making a log of the wifi networks that I see as well as their location) which uses up a lot of battery.
The first powerbank is 6 years old and probably down to about 5,000MaH of degraded capacity, the other is a newer one but doesnât charge devices super fast. The last one is a flashy one thatâs super new and has USB C PD, fast charging, and wireless charging which is my primary one. The other 2 are backups.
Tailor your go bags to your specific situation. Iâd do 2. 1 for your immediate needs. If you had to be out for 24 hours without your car, what would you reasonably need? Try to balance things so you only take what youâd need so itâs easy to carry. The other bag I would do essentials to get you by for 3 or 4 days with a car (if you have one). Changes of clothes, tinned food, any meds or toiletries you need, some cash, etc. the first go bag might not be super necessary, I keep mine purely because I often donât know that my living situation will be safe this time tomorrow. Honestly the 2nd one you probably donât need either - I just suggest it because I used to live in the country, and with bushfires and such you need to be able to grab your essentials for a few days ASAP if you need them. Theyâre still a good idea to have in case of major floods, or an earthquake, or other natural disasters, though. But in the cities, the emergency meet points will have most of what you need anyway

Any specific power bank brand you like? Iâve got a big chunky anker that can power my laptop but I want to grab something smaller as a phone backup day to day.
Nice advice about the go-bag too.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Phone wallet keys, notebook, pens, water bottle, mask, earbuds, sunnies (I live in hope)
Duenan@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Phone, keys, wallet though I want to carry that less and less these days.
tone212_@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Phone and keys mainly, a Myki card and headphones if Iâm using PT. If Iâve got a shoulder bag with me, might have my wallet, gum, a snack.
Catfish@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Keys, phone, calico bag, mask, meds, lip balm!!!, work pass, purse, powder, emergency sew kit, nail file, chewing gum.

Pilk@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago

Aww youâre so sweet with the cat photo.
You should probably also carry a bacon snack everywhere you go too.
bacon@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
