    Hey yeah, i get it (or, to some extent) . I am chronically cold due to being a healthy weight and having poor circulation. I wear thermals and hoodies year round even when it’s 90+ out. But for me it’s the extremeties and my ass isn’t too bad.

    But to be more constructive, since you know yourself better than anyone. If this is really a deal breaker then id look into getting an extra outlet installed in your bathroom which can vary on price depending on the type of wall (and their service minimum-- if you have other electrical needs you night be able to tackle all at once). It’s been a few years since i had a new outlet installed but i got it for around $250/ outlet. Might be as high as $400-500 for your set up.

    And an electric Bidet lid with heated water will cost you $250-500 (maybe there are cheaper ones but I’m just going by some options i looked at for my partner).

    Low end $500, high end $1000 for outlet+Bidet. I’m assuming you can install the Bidet lid yourself (it wasn’t hard, promise).

    Now i can’t do the next math for you, so I’ll share my toilet math. Costco toilet paper is ~$24/30 rolls (I’m using the price online which may be higher than warehouse, but also closer to other stores). I used to go though a roll per week because my hairy ass loved to play marker with the TP. After i got a Bidet my TP usage dropped my at least 4x. A roll lasts me a long time. So if my weekly cost of TP used to be $1.25 then I’m saving $3.75/ month. And that’s just me maybe you have more people using the restroom. So saving $45/year. We’re looking at 10 years to break even from a cost perspective for the low end of things.

    Ok, maybe that doesn’t make the most sense from a cost perspective. My cheapo bidet paid itself off within a year.

    Outside of cost id say this:

    • i feel much cleaner.
    • Ass sweat doesnt feel like I’m making a poo swamp
    • my butt thanks me. No more raw asshole
    • if you’re in a house with septic system, less TP in the septic system. (This could potentially decrease the amount of time between pumps).

    Sorry for the long message. I spent 3 decades thinking my sister was the weirdo for buying a Bidet and i wish i wouldve made the change sooner





  • Ive had this happen a few times. It goes something like this:

    • i buy product and initiate return
    • i ship item with return label
    • as soon as return label is scanned then amazon will release the funds back to me
    • if for some reason they don’t get that package then they say they didn’t get the item back and take the funds back. When this has happened to me it has been 6+ months later
    • when i asked amazon about it they just tell me they didn’t get it back. I tell them i have the shipping confirmation receipt and that this is someone else’s problem and not mine.
    • there’s a lot of back and forth and eventually they act like they’re doing me a favor by giving me my money back

    I think the problem was one of the drop off locations we used was stealing products, or just straight up losing them. But it is insane to me that amazon comes back 6 months later. The only thing worse than buying a broken dildo on amazon is returning the broken dildo and still getting charged for it. Getting fucked by the broken dildo twice and not in the ways i had hoped!







  • Yeah, it’s bad. Surprised they’re still serving that crap in their own bundle but i guess some things don’t change.

    Filezilla is no relation to mozilla. But yeah i moved away from it years ago. The general recommendation I’ve seen is “anything but filezilla”. Personally i use winscp for windows, and will have to figure out what to use when i switch my daily driver to Linux.




  • Extracting the stem cells may or may not cause harm to animals. If it is extracted from a live animal then it would cause harm and stress to an animal.

    The medium used for growing may not be vegan (like FSB which is extracted from an animals death). But reportedly companies are moving to cheaper, plant-based, mediums.

    Even if the process caused no harm or stress to animals, I’m not sure i would eat lab grown meat. I’ve already completely replaced meat in my cooking, and learned how to make much more nutrious meals. Adding meat back in would be regressive. Not to mention i feel like lab grown meat in particular will have been made possible through animal suffering research. While I’m glad it will have potential to be a net positive in the long run, i personally don’t feel the desire to support lab grown meat

    Oh, i mean the customers (husband and wife) loved it. They literally wanted it burnt when they asked for blackened. All my coworkers had tried to get the outside crispy from the spices but each time they didn’t cook the inside to be flaky enough according to this couple. This occurred over several weeks. Each week the couple came in asking for it and my coworkers progressively cooked it longer each time but it was never good enough. We thought they were just trying to get free meals so when i said i would cook it, i was going for a “they can’t complain about this being undercooked” and much to my surpruse they actually liked it.

    I’ll note that no one else in the restaurant ever complained about my coworkers’ blackened fish. It was a popular meal. So it wasn’t my coworkers not cooking it right. Just an odd couple


  • i once had a customer who wanted their fish “blackened”. Everyone else on staff had tried at some point and the customer always complained it was undercooked. So me being the new gal said id do it. I threw it in a pan and left it there for god knows how long. Then flipped it, left it there longer, and finally threw it into the back of our oven for another 15 minutes. It was literally charcoal when i was done. I was sure they would complain that it was overcooked but those fuckers loved it. They specifically requested me to cook their meal whenever they came in after that. I was just fucking with them the first time 🤷‍♀️

    Id set up a static website with Hugo. You can preview and build locally. Or put it on your home network and vpn in if you need remote access to make an entry.

    In your content folder you could do content/[year]/[month]/[day]/index.md, and have a _index.md in the year and in month folders so there would be pages with automatic collection of articles under that year/ month. You could also subdivide the content folder into health/ general/ shower thoughts and other “types” of journals

    They have support for tags, categories, and custom taxonomies. So if you wanted to have “people” category you could, and then a “thing” category or any other sort of way to tag the content.
