I use a 13" Macbook Pro.
I primarily draw with a Magic Mouse -- I love that they're wireless and ultra-portable, and I've attempted various Wacom products but have always immediately hated all of the extra stuff you have to carry and plug in.
I take photos and scan things with my iPhone 6S, which has one of my FUCK TRUMP cross stickers on it; strangers like to comment on it and I'll usually give them a sticker if they agree.
And I always have headphones handy for music, podcasts, and signaling to people that I want to be left alone.
I keep a small home altar with things like candles, crystals, palo santo, sage, tarot cards, a coyote jawbone.
