> Where do you keep your passport Honestly, losing my passport probably wouldn't be as big a deal as losing access to my Google account.

  Absolutely. Primarily because a passport comes out of process mediated by multiple humans for whom that is their only responsibility. It's a matter of few hundred dollars and a couple weeks to replace it.

    I don’t know about replacement but there are lots of delays currently for US passports: > The processing time for routine applications is taking from 10 to 13 weeks up from six to nine weeks for those who applied before Feb. 6, the State Department said. > Expedited processing, which costs $60 more, is taking seven to nine weeks, an increase from three to five weeks. https://www.axios.com/2023/04/24/passport-delays-2023-processing-time-renewal-status https://www.axios.com/2023/04/24/passport-delays-2023-proces...

      That's pretty absurd and definitely not how long it takes in all countries - but still probably quicker than recovering a Google account which you might not be able to do at all.

    In Spain, renewing the passport is very fast and cheap!
