  • While it is easy to fall into this trap of disagree downvotes, they should really not be used that way. All that does is turn them into a popularity contest. Downvotes should be used on comments that do not improve the thread. This may be because they are wrong, made in bad faith, rude, or otherwise, but not simply because you disagree. Ideally we would have different buttons for this like the forums of old, but no one seems interested in that nowadays.








  • I hate being without stuff I need, so I always carry around a backpack. I just always keep stuff in it so I don’t forget it. At the moment the core kit is:

    • At least 1L of water, usually 2L+.
    • Hand sanitiser for the inevitable moment the public washroom is out of soap.
    • Re-usable shopping bags in case I buy something.
    • An energy bar or two in case I have to stay at work late.
    • Nail clippers (having a broken nail at work sucks).
    • Band-aids.
    • A mask in case anywhere requires it, but this one has definitely seen less use over time.
    • Deodorant, because sometimes I forget to apply it before I leave in the morning…
    • Hand lotion for winter when my hands crack.
    • And finally, a charging cable for my phone.

    If it’s likely to rain and I’ll be outside longer than 15m I will add an umbrella to the mix.
