Is it ridiculous to carry my keys on a titanium key ring when carabiners cost a dollar? Yes! Does it make me feel fancy even when I'm making an emergency run to the bodega for toilet paper? Definitely. I love the sleek shape of this key clip and the fact that it will outlive me, plus it doubles as a bottle opener.

🧰Since I was a kid in my brother’s hand-me-down cargo shorts just playing and climbing and tying and whittling in the forest in Germany, I’ve always loved having everything you could possibly need for a myriad of hyper specific purposes on your person. My friends call me Tactical Boy. It feels very important and satisfying to have the right tools for any job. Victorinox is the golden standard; we have them to thank for the Swiss Army Knife. Then they decided to give usa version that you can slip in your wallet or the tiniest of clutches, and is TSA friendly. As an adult, the ability to file and open and tighten and pluck and fix and jot and trim and pin all from this card has saved many a moment, from fashion weeks to tour dates to camping trips.

👨As someone who works in food media, I watch a lot of cooking videos. As much as I love instructional videos with charming hosts, that's not what I watch to chill my brain out. Instead, and because I am obsessed with food, I watch quiet cooking videos on YouTube that one might even call cooking ASMR. They generally show someone cooking a dish with little to no background music or narration; instead, you see beautiful food and hear pleasant sizzle sounds or the gentle scraping of a wooden spoon. My favorite channels are 꿀키honeykki and yedy101, whose delightfully cross-eyed cat usually makes an appearance in the background.

🖊I have long ridden extremely hard for Muji's 0.38mm gel pens, which I used to have relatives in other countries send to me before Muji expanded into the US. But since I'm a sucker for an ultra-fine-tipped pen, I knew I had to try Sharpie's version, and now, I think I'm a convert. These write even more smoothly, no matter how I have the pen angled, and the gel is really black and doesn't smudge. Plus, since they're retractable, I no longer have to worry about losing all my pen caps at the bottom of my bag.

💆Having very short hair has made me more aware than ever about the condition of my scalp since, well, you can see it. I like using a shampoo that has peppermint and tea tree oil and then using a silicone scalp brush to massage and lightly exfoliate my head. It gives me a quick moment to relax, but more importantly, it keeps me from worrying about the very gross but real possibility of having a dry, flaky scalp.
