    i choose to believe in fostering a strong internal microbiome. i also can't stand most of the textures of cleaning things because of the 'tism, so it's also not my choice, which is neat.

    i am an antigermphobe, germs fear me. :huh: still somehow haven't caught the fucking plague, so i must be doing something right in the long run i guess

      Bro you can cultivate a strong internal microbiome without also having poop flake spray lol, just eat yogurt - unless you're vegan but if you are vegan, chances are your microbiome is better from all the fiber. It's fair that you have sensory issues with cleaning products but you still gotta maintain a level of cleanliness... whatever, sounds like your system is working for you, so who am I to judge.

        my brother in christ, i'm not intentionally inhaling the poo mist or anything. i just think it's like...do people not realize that people are animals? we have mechanisms to not die from being in the vicinity of poop smell, y'know.

      I got one of those slow-close lids and I now close it every time. I didn't use to.

      I think the act of slowly letting down the lid annoyed me and I absolutely cannot stand the loud noise of accidentally letting the lid slam down.

        now that i'm thinking about it, i've realize that i close my lid after the flush, but my toilet is prone to clogging so I have to keep an eye on it while it flushes.
