Coffee making gear, so hand grinder, tiny scales, and either a tricked out picopresso or an aeropress or my wave dripper. I pick based on what sort of coffee beans I am expecting to be able to pick up where I go.

My regular electric toothbrush instead of a travel one. I have found its just easier to just throw my toothbrush in a bag morning of then to deal with having a 2nd one for travel which is often disgusting

My trusty bag, basically a small/medium duffel bag I can wear over my shoulder or carry. When I've traveled (been so long, I miss it), that holds everything. It makes travel so nice. I just carry it on the plane, shove it under my seat. One thing to worry about. No hauling luggage, no waiting for baggage claim (mostly). A single pocket for my passport. Just one bag.
Do you know those supermagnets that can be found in old computer hardware? I take one of those, a particularly strong one, which my BF and his relatives found for me once during the advent of their metal detecting hobby. Good for things like getting stuff out of hard to reach places or determining the material of something, though I'm told it's not so good for those who have put their phone or credit card too close to my baggage. I even once took a toy out of a grocery store toy machine this way (screw the rigged crane, especially when you have a kid who just went through a tragedy).
Does it cause any issues with airport security?
I'm not sure. I've never tested that out. Though I've heard that even just being made of metal risks extra vetting at the airport.
Amongst other things, I always carry some zip ties. They weigh nothing, yet come in handy in so many ways.
Ah yes, zip ties. I also carry them every day. Along with plastic sheeting, a machete, a shovel, and a bottle of moonshine.

Body glide blister balm, and laundry wash sheets (so much tidier than washing powder!).
Most of my other stuff seems standard to me...
Laundry wash sheets are a good idea
Shoe horn, thermoplastic.
A shoe horn is a good idea. What's thermoplastic?
Thermoplastic usually starts as small pellets that you can heat up in boiling water and mold into shapes to repair things. Once cooled, it's pretty strong. I just have a blob of it in my toiletry bag to fix whatever breaks.
Cool!
What’s thermoplastic?
Hot Glue
Ignore the thermo part of the word.
Alcohol gel, pack of tissues, steam deck with vpn connection to my home server. Next time I'll be bringing a travel router to test WFH 😉
Those gl-inet routers are really handy. Great if you have a bunch of wireless devices too, login to the hotel wifi with one device, spoof on the router that device's MAC, then you have "one" device hooked up to the hotel wifi... And everything else connects to a pre setup wifi network and you don't have to login on all of them.
I also bring liquid bandaid most places, it really is superior but you have to wait for the bleeding to (mostly) stop first
My travel kit includes way too many nails, mousetraps, an upholstery stapler, power drill, syringes/needles, and first aid stuff. Sideshow performer so it's just par for the course. I also use the needles for medication.
