You mean “while” showering? With the water running?

My doubt about that is that, if you washed properly, it takes a lot of (usual 3 layers) toilet paper to dry the crack properly.
What do you mean we don’t use them? Those are exactly what I just described above.
Only positive thing that could theoretically come out of this, for me as a European, is that some US representatives will finally stop going around saying that you are the greatest democracy on this planet. Problem is, the US nationals who usually utter such BS are not the ones able to realize how anti-democratic this is. As a US citizen with a working brain, I would be in DC now.
This is the worst you got to, up to now, going full circle from colony of a monarchy to monarchy.
It is time to distance ourselves until you get your shit together.
In Italy, where the bidet is its own “seat”, we use small towels, one for each person. The ones that usually people vacationing in Italy think are for the face, they are actually for your ass. Hard to tell the difference on American tourists sometimes.
Do you dare come say this here in Scandinavia please? FYI, you will suffer the date of Vigo the Carpathian, but I promis to erect a nice slab of stone for you.
That is absurd! Event Horizon is the only legit Doom movie. That was the idea all along and they even used the sound clip from the spawn cube in the movie.
Also, although I am not a 40k fan, I know some people see this as a prequel to Warhammer 40k as the moment in which humans first get to use the Warp.
It was ruined by execs, but it is a masterpiece, especially in the production design.
Actually, as a strong supporter of the European Union, when people ask me what United in Diversity even means, scenes from Star Wars are my go-to explanation. No one like him showed the possibility of a, I would argue, racially diverse population surviving and becoming an effective force against a power expressed through uniformity.
Israel controls the maritime space in front of and air space over Gaza, the anagraphical and fiscal systems and the access of goods and people.
My “politics” is because I don’t think that any politically relevant (especially for the rest of the world) decision in the US is taken in or by the appointed institutions. And recent events, including the news we are commenting on here, are confirmation of this.
I’ll let you onto a little secret about Europeans: we don’t don’t give half a shit about the US and their “politics”.
You may well argue that we have your bases in our territory, NATO and your social networks influencing our lives, but I see that as our internal problem of still having to grow a proper pair, rather than an interesting consequence of whatever medieval situation you’re brewing in there.
And you wish you were in a cyberpunk dystopia. You’re in a boring one.
I think this could have been the normal evolution of the social network under anyone else than Musk. I repeat, it has always been built this way, for broadcasting. And I am sorry to fire on the Red Cross, but Mastodon is just the same: the only reason it is somewhat better than what Twitter was is that it is novel and barely populated and therefore elicits what in Italy we call mountain path courtesy.
I don’t really see a difference in Twitter pre- and post-Musk. It is literally built for this, for broadcasting with minimal discussion afterwards. I left Twitter a bit before Musk got it because I realized Reddit was better for discussing and obtaining informed opinions. And now I left Reddit.
You guessed it, I am not American.
Nor I have time to spend following the domestic politics of a country that was decadent when it was founded by terrorists (according to its own Constitution).
I am surprised still because this is 2023 and you are behaving literally medieval de facto instituting a new kind of feudalism gibing power to these people.
What’s surprising is that the US does nothing about it
Is that a trick question? Because my answer is a resounding yes.
In Italy I was a member of UAAR (The Union of Rationalist Atheists and Agnostics) and we supported the legal costs of people battling against crucifixes in the workplace, compulsory prayers and even acoustic pollution caused by the church bells. This was in the late '90s to early '00s.
Bad publicity is bad for business. And that’s all the US really cares about.
Let’s look at the bright side: at least it is obvious even to the US that being this close to Israel at the moment is something that is better done under the table.
Doesn’t it get just damp and smooth? How can you scrub properly with that?
Anyway good to know what they are for when there is no bidet in sight.
