The ones I have found most important in my own journey:
The fallacy of one cause, manifests as a bias towards monocausal explanations which is an appeal to simplicity, related to the certainty effect as well.
Attribute substitution: these fly by unconsciously all the time
Inaction bias: doing nothing is treated as a special action that avoids blame
Internal illusion of transparency (introspective transparency illusion)
Homeostatic prior: automatically work towards maintaining things as they are including unpleasant things

Thanks for the insightful comment! I added these four biases to the Doc:
Single Cause Fallacy
You think there’s one cause when there are many.
Attribute Substitution
You value insurance on terrorism higher than on death of any kind.
Introspection Illusion
You confidently but falsely explain the origin of your beliefs.
Status Quo Bias (aka homeostatic prior)
You want things to stay as they are.
