Bidets have the major drawback that there is just no going back. I suspect it has more to do with a general freshness coming from the water than anything else, but the classic western toilet experience just subjectively feels like it leaves you unclean once you've used a bidet regularly for a while, no matter how perfectly the séance goes.

When I was a kid my parents had me pick up the dog poop with a folding shovel with a broken off handle so basically just a small shovel head with a place to grab onto it.

I don't recommend that.

I just spent all vacation missing my bidet. It's such a game changer.

Also speaking of bathroom recommendations, I got a squatty potty years ago and between it and adding psyllium fiber to my diet, my life has gotten better in every way. It doesn't work for everyone, but if you have issues making GBS threads, get a bathroom stool - lifting your knees above your hips just seems to make things flow smoother.

If you've got a large washroom, you can get any kind of stool, but if your bathroom is tiny like mine, the squatty potty is perfect since it takes next to no real estate by wrapping around the toilet. There's lots of off-brand ones, but I got the brand name 7 or so years ago and it's been worth every penny.

Liquid skin/bandage, it's exactly what it says on the tin. You literally brush some on a cut or scrape and in a matter of seconds you have a flexible waterproof bandage that even works great on knuckles. I don't even bother with using a normal bandage any more unless it's something problematic enough that gauze should be involved
:ssh:
Vetbond Tissue Adhesive by 3M quickly bonds tissues together for veterinary procedures. On contact with body tissue, Vetbond adhesive changes from liquid to solid state by polymerizing within seconds to seal a wound. Contains a blue dye allowing it to be easily seen where applied. Tissue adhesive stops minor bleeding and binds wound edges, which may eliminate the need for suturing or bandaging in some cases. Vetbond also serves as a barrier against foreign material from entering the wound. The adhesive sloughs off as healing occurs.

- Each 3 ml bottle contains approximately 150 drops.
- Vetbond adheres wound edges together so natural healing can occur
- Seals wounds with seconds
- Recommended for dew claws, docking tails, minor lacerations and surgical procedures.

I tried $13 deodorant and my god it is the best thing I've put under my arms and it annoys me a whole lot because I don't want to spend that much to have non stinky pits. It's hard to explain the difference between it and regular deodorant other than the regular stuff develops a weird smell after a bit as it absorbs into your skin\sweat vs the expensive one. The expensive one had a much more fresh and neutral armpit smell even after a while
they seem to last longer too

You can buy portable, battery powered bidets. Still not as good as the at home experience but better than using thin dry toilet paper

Do you keep this portable bidet in your pocket, sir? Or perhaps you carry it around in a lockable briefcase?

I use one of these for backpacking because you’re not supposed to leave toilet paper behind in a lot of wilderness areas. It works very well and I could see using it for travel if you’re living Bidet Life already. Personally it led me to purchase a wildly expensive Toto washlet that has been worth every penny so far

I have a friend who used a bidet for the first time while on vacation in Europe. He then went to a restaurant, where he ended up needing to do a little fart. He then found out that he had sprayed about a shot glass amount of water up his butthole, which came back out all over his pants.

Just keep in mind 1.2v vs 1.5v each can add up pretty quickly if it's something like a flashlight or nose maker like a bike horn; for something where power can really matter especially for safety stuff make sure you compare how rechargeables act vs normal ones

This. I used to do a lot of photography in the early 2000s, and my flash ran on like 6 or 8 AAs. Because it chewed through batteries so fast I started looking for rechargeables, and discovered it would not even function with 1.2v batteries. I did manage to find 1.5v rechargeables, and they worked just fine. Searching online relatively recently I was able to locate some 1.5v rechargeables, I think, but they were difficult to find. Even what look like minor differences can make different batteries behave very differently.

They do have 1.5V rechargeable AAs which are small lithium cells with a buck converter circuit board embedded inside, but they are expensive.

also since those are internally regulated the device you put them in will just show the batteries as 100% charged until they suddenly die
