Contents of a drawer

A plastic redstone block that lights up when you tap it
A small cardboard box. Made in china apparently. I sticked a tag on it years ago, written in a non-standard Elian script that I have forgotten. I can read "DT - Power N" behind the tag. The box contains
- An USB to PS2 converter.
- An unknown cable. Input looks like a Jack port, output is 3 pistol-shaped female-Jack to male-Jack. I have no clue how this thing ended here.
- A microSD to SD card adapter
A pen. Black, does not work.
A treasure-shaped wooden box filled with found coins. A gift of my grandma. There is "La Gueva del Pirata" burned into the wood. I don't actually knows what it means. Looking back at it, it might not be the most hygenic thing. Most things should be dead by now right?
A small chewing gum jar filled with foreign coins. The jar is green and kinda transparent. I peeled off the branding so I could hope to see through.
A tiny screwdriver. Looks like it was offered with my Fairphone 3.
A... binary dice ? 6 faced, goes 2-4-8-16-32-64. No idea why.
Another microSD to SD adapter.
4 packs of "dust removal before screen protection" stickers.
An old smartphone box repurposed as pin box. The marking says "Punaises" in the same non-standard Elian script. I still can't read it, and I'm way too lazy to try to decipher the other based on that. Filled with pins, surprisingly.
A retractable pen, branded to an unknown house-selling-agency-thing. Works. ...and now my palm has black lines on it. Looking at it makes me feel like it's the hand I had in high school.
A "push bubbles out after screen protection" brush-card-thingy.
A transparent pen box filled with 6-faced dices of varying origins. This kind of amounts can only come from Warhammer.
A small jack micro. From a headset I replaced a few years ago. The moss thing has been deformed under the weight of a Nintendo DS.
A Nintendo DS XL case. Contains:
- A shiny TyogreEX polemon card. Surprisingly good condition.
- A DS, with an R4. I don't have a charger to check what's in there. And I'm too lazy to find an SD card reader.
A mini-jack to USB adapter
A driver CD for Windows. "GIGABYTE \n AMD MOTHERBOARD"
Paper cards to note things on. All over the place. Offered by my parents as an attempt to get me into learning german. Never used any.
A Geomag transparent box filled with 6 faced dices. Def Warhammer.
Windows driver CD. "tp-link"
Windows driver CD. "AOC \n E2470SW \n M2470SW"

Hey, I'm back.

Listened to that while away. Is neat.

A pouch offered with my headset. Claims to be somehow waterproof. Didn't even bother trying, I just don't believe you here.
Another promotional pen, "STOP à la souffrance animale - 30 millions d'amis". Guys are ambitious. No clue how it got there. Still functional. this time I tried it on a paper card instead of my hand. Oh, it's made of rolled paper, which is within standard deviation of coolness, but towards the top.
Framework's screwdriver.
A phone backplate. Unknown brand, not from any model I own.
Phone screen wiper. Old. I don't know if that makes it unusable. Still feels weird to the touch, so maybe still good?
A super cheap headset with a thin, tangled jack cable.
A folded sheet of sandpaper. Unknown grain. This one is probably the thing I use the most in this drawer. About once per semester.
A pencil. Point broken. Looks quite clean actually.
A sim card dimension adapter. Hey, someone needed that yesterday.
4 bands of Velcro tape. Rather good quality. Probably used for cable packaging at some point.
Small pouch filled with elastics.
Dark tangled mass with an in-ear speaker sticking out. The smell isn't actually *that* strong.
A Nintendo 3DS case, covered in spider webs
- A 3DS, with a heart roughly painted in white nail polish. The stylus is missing.
- "Art Academy" cartridge
- "My Sims Kingdom" cartridge
A piece of red string. I use this thing to recognise my suitcase at airports. Doesn't happen often.
A paperclip meant to hold the paper cards together.
Oh, one of the cards has a cut tab and "SUS" written on it. Not my writing.

F*ck I pinched my finger when closing the thing. I actua - *ouch* ok don't try to type with this hand - I actually did it, like the only thing you can f*ck up, what a madlad.

It feels warm now, I guess it means it's good.

My muscle memory typed that "i" with the pinched finger and it didn't hurt.

So as I was sayi - *ouch, this time it did hurt* - saying, you are now informed. Through a christmas family dinner, pinched fingers, and even if it means typing over an open drawer, journalism honors its duty.
