That's a tough one because I'm currently surrounded by computers and tools. I'm within reach of my smart phone, one of my laptops, I'm typing this on my desktop PC, I'm within reach of three multitools, a power drill, and my away mission tool bag. So I think I'll give a cop out answer and go with "The several thousand liters of air filling the room."

I'm outside so I'm not sure how to evaluate "the room". My phone is the most immediate at hand (pun intended) useful thing right now though.

Probably my phone, and that probably applies to most rooms frankly if we're talking about potential things I could need to do

Toilet paper ๐Ÿงป Very, very useful.

See, if you're in the room I think you're in, I think I would vote for the toilet.

Toilet paper

My cat. Everything else in my room brings me either misery or a feeling of meh. Cat brings joy, which is difficult for me to obtain.

Depends on the situation.

Currently? 40 pound box of cake mix I'm probably going to launch at my store manager.

Probably my hatchet, first aid kit, and a duffel bag I keep packed with all weather gear and a small tent as well as my headlamp, survival knife, and half a dozen MREs

I'm not even a "collapse is imminent" prepper kinda guy but it's better to be safe than sorry, you never know.

Air freshener.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

My phone. It might be my laptop, but it's currently not working. If you consider humans, me.
