I learned a lot running a drop shipping based novelty store for a bit and it seems that human sexuality has very few boundaries. As long as nobody gets hurt (unless that is their thing) and everyone is of age, people should explore what they want to explore.
I made a little bit of a joke about that in my last comment, but it was just superficial. It’s someone’s thing and they have every right to get off how they choose. (TBH, the people I met that were on the extreme side of things were very open and had a good sense of humor about it.)
Lol i was just making a joke as well there wasnt any thinking, just some 5min lemmy shitposting. I dont really care what others are doing if they arent harming anyone so got nothing against that use their free time a bit different than me.
It was actually Edison and Westinghouse. Tesla and Edison having beef with eachother is a complete myth. Edison never wrote about Tesla at all and had a gigantic beef against Westinghouse. Tesla was actually a fairly minor player whose only real contribution was his invention of the multiphase motor that he licensed to Westinghouse. Not only that but another guy by the name of Galileo Ferraris independently made the exact same discovery around the same time as Tesla. Meaning Tesla’s contribution to AC electricity wasn’t even strictly necessary.
After that invention Tesla did practically nothing at all of consequence other than grifting Charles Schwaab out of a bunch of money and falling madly in love with a pigeon.
Tesla also never really had anything negative to say about Edison at all. In fact he actually briefly worked for his company. He ended up quitting when the manager he worked under reneged on a deal they made to give tesla $300 for a task the guy didn’t think Tesla would be able to do. When Tesla actually did it the guy said he was only joking about the $300. Tesla got super pissed and quit.
Not to mention the fact Tesla was batshit insane and had all sorts of weird pseudo-religious beliefs about how electricity works. The money he grifted from Charles schwaab was used to fund his idea of transmitting electricity large distances through the earth; Not through wires buried underground, but literally through the earth. As you can imagine it didn’t work.
That was Edison and Tesla, Franklin was long dead by then. Also it was pretty one sided, Tesla wasn’t the one doing stage shows out of killing circus elephants.
Oh I misread the meme for some reason or my brain just autofilled tesla lmao. Yeah and thanks to their rivalry we were gifted with the electric chair, one of the worst and most unreliable ways of executing someone
Funny thing is during the time period of the folks dressed here…. They were dirty nasty and thought taking baths actually made you sick. These guys would have had shit encrusting there assholes in cookie cutter shapes like stars and hearts, and they would have smelled worse than a alcoholic who pissed themselves on the subway.
Not really. Bathing in the 17th century was more common than a lot of people realize. Check this link out for a historian that argues this in an article: frockflicks.com/the-gross-18th-century/
We had them and then moved to a new place with solid metal lines going to the toilet so I couldn’t reinstall our bidets. I lived in luxury for years only to have it snatched away… Don’t take your bidet for granted people.
Does your toilet’s water line have connectors on either side, or is it just straight from the wall to the toilet? If the latter, you really need to talk to a plumber, but the former can be solved by just getting a new hose line.
Sorry! Didnt mean to offend! Indians typically use their hands to wipe their butts with water. I think it is cleaner and uses less water relatively. The joke I intended to make was that India has been using water to wash themselves for several years whereas the west needed the invention of a bidet to force the change.
I agree! But also both Hinduism and Islam had cleanliness rituals baked into their religion. Maybe they were able to notice historically that periodic bathing multiple times a day, helped them to avoid diseases!
Honestly humans are stupid and it is so interesting what we learned to do for sometimes awful reasons that turned out to be pretty good for us. I mean a lot of medicine was “getting the devil out of you” for a long time and it sometimes happened to work because people would just do random shit.
As someone that had a fancy bidet and returned it my main selling point was “reduce tp” during covid. It just didn’t work with its fan blowing, I still had to use tp to dry my ass afterwards ans to thr people that say, “just use a towel” like wtf then you have a shit ass stinking towel next to you in the bathroom. Especially so since I wash my towels after a use. Point is the heated swat is goated, the wet ass and weat fan dry function is no and they aren’t for me. I will scape my ass with tp will Sahara dry.
The point of bidet is to clean your butthole, not reducing tp use. Even so, wipe away water is significantly easier and less tp use than wipe away any trace of poop.
You wash your towels after a single use? Just so we’re clear, you’re supposed to wash yourself before you use the towel… they shouldn’t be that dirty… right?
Yeah you don’t? Likenyou shower daily, so you change towels daily. I have 7 towels for 7 days and wash them on Sunday. I like knowing that I am clean ans while myself with a clean towel after a clean shower.
