If it's 90 degrees Celcius, I don't think you could sit there for an hour. If it's 90 american degrees, what kind of sauna is that?
weird huh, in neither system does 90 degrees make for a useful sauna. that's either lukewarm, or cooking temp.
Think of this next time your finger pops through the toilet paper and you get a little dab of shit on your hand. Nasty!! Nastiest thing that’s ever happened! Is what I usually think. But next time I’ll think “This is good for me”. I imagine some of you fold your toilet paper into perfect little squares like Mr. Bean preparing the perfect wiping session. Not me. I move fast and break things
I finally feel justified! Not only do I get my hands dirty, but I also don't use soap unless water alone can't get them clean. Most of the time, our great universal solvent does a fine job without stripping my good bacteria.

Just because your immune system is fighting for your life against a parasite and doesn't have time for side quests doesn't make contracting a parasite good for you
Just because you call something a parasite doesn't make it bad for you. It might be bad, or good, or some of both, or depend on other factors at different times. If you count cells and genes instead of mass, every human hosts more non-human life than human. Call them parasites and delete them and die.

I mean it was so ridiculous that I do think it was trolling. But more like…what if this is actually true.
Well, what if it is? Hanging out with a whimsical premise? Oh the horror!

I have read but not verified that washing with water is about as effective as with soap at removing bacteria from hands. Having soap on your hands forces you to get all the soap off, which requires touching more skin surface.

Are you walking on human feces a lot? Hook work was a problem because of a huge lack of sanitary conditions. Less about being barefoot. Would I walk around barefoot in my yard? Absolutely.
I live in a city and I cannot tell you how often I see dogshit on the sidewalk, like just in the middle of the sidewalk the only neighborhoods where I don't see this are the ones where there's some nice retired older person who diligently cleans the shit up. but it's not like they bleach the spot, they just pick up most of the poop. so yeah, there's feces everywhere it also doesn't help that we have bottom tier publi…

> Just the thought of looking at a watch in a sauna, and timing things minute by minute sounded exhausting. "Hey , set a timer for 12 minutes" doesn't sound very exhausting.
You will now be subject to the whims of a timer in the future. If that's not exhausting for you, go for it.
I can also cancel it just as easily, if it's exhausting. Which--I'm finding it hard to understand why it would be.
I don't schedule my life like that at all, I kinda wander around all day. But the idea of a reminder that I specifically asked for? It's the only kind of reminder I want, actually. It'll keep me from the actually-exhausting habit of checking my watch or wondering how long it's been.

I'm not subject to the whims of anything except what I just asked for. I can also cancel it just as easily, if it's exhausting. Which--I'm finding it hard to understand why it would be.
