Phones in 2035 be like:
Fuck the Big 3, it’s just me!
You drop your phone. Your keys and wallet: Fool! You thought you could live without us!
That’s why I got the 2035 biist™ implant, you can’t lose it!

I’m to the point I need to carry two pairs now, it’s so frustrating.
Ah, that’s where I left them.
Who needs a wallet these days. It’s the big 2 now, just keys and phone.
I get uncomfortable when they’re not in my pockets…
This is less of a problem for me these days.
My phone is my primary source of audio content, so it’s easy to remember. I also have a smart / keypad lock, a digital wallet, a physical wallet that magnetically connects to my phone case, and my keys / phone have UWB trackers on them.
The world may be getting shittier, but we have top scientists and engineers working on the “I forgot my keys / wallet” problem.
When I travel, I love places with digital keylocks and digital wallet.
I felt real cyberpunk to use my phone to map how to get to my fancy hotel/Airbnb that unlocked automatically when I got near and wave my phone at the vending machine to get a soda and then order food through my phone.
The part I panic about is constantly keeping my phone charged.
Fuck the big three, it’s just big me
when I talk about it
it carries on
reasons only knewbreaks into my own home
Just remember WOWEE
I used this meme to get ready today but I messed up and accidentally left the house with keys, wallet, and Stalin
Well, at least you’re gonna get shit done today. Try to steer clear the crimes against humanity, though…
I just carry a small sling bag I wear across my body that contains the big 3 + hand sanitizer. Although I usually keep my car fob in my pocket so the proximity detection works when I grab the door handle to automatically unlock it. It feels so much better to have almost nothing in your pockets once you get used to it.
What do I need a wallet for? I can use my phone to pay everywhere nowadays.
Maybe if turkey supported NFC better, plus going outside without an id card is never a great option
You never know when you might need bills or your ID, even in a state with contactless payments everywhere and a digital ID, it’s better to have a backup.
In the last 15 years, the only time I’ve ever used cash was to buy coke.
That’s all it’s good for nowadays. Buying drugs.
And privacy? I use cash whenever I can
I almost never use digital payments. Between the processing fees and lack of privacy, cash is always better for both parties. You spend less when you carry cash also.
Most small vendors offer a pretty nice discount for cash (even though thats technically against cc’s tos), as soon as I started to buy almost entirely local my cash usage went way up. I do almost all my groceries in cash these days from a farmers market.
I kind of like not religiously following digital payments. They’re governed by Visa and other payment companies, and some of the businesses near me have started feeling an increased squeeze from them. They sometimes appreciate cash payments.
Just need a magnetic card holder on the back of my phone, for my driver license and registration. Even the car opens and starts with a card. And my home has a smart lock, which I can open from my phone. So keys are not needed either.
And then that priceless moment when the battery dies.
I was curious about this. For some home smart locks, they have a kind of nose ring on the bottom where you can hold a 9V battery against it, and use that to power the entry system (which only needs you to enter a code) until you can change the inner battery.
Well then I just go to my friend nearby who has the spare key. Rarely happens that I have a completely empty phone battery. And I can just charge it in my car if necessary.
Spectacles, testicles, wallet, and watch.
I say this every morning, so I don’t forget my testicles when I leave the house.
Don’t forget the flask of Scotch.
View the keys, wallet, and cell phone as the necks connecting the bodies to the heads above.
Knife, flashlight, lighter…
And cigars

Also bottle water, AR-15, and a bible too.
Came here for this. Sandler for the win.
I’m free from keys. The car opens with my phone and my home has a keypad at the door.
I still carry or hide a key in case a battery dies or something glitches out.
Same, the physical keys are backups.
