Anybody know of anything else that would be quite wise to purchase sooner than later, due to potential (or incoming) regulation that would be regarded as privacy-infringing to enforce? I was thinking about this because I've been pondering a high-quality 3D printer purchase for this reason.

Advice for varying levels of budget would be quite nice, too; I partially intend on this being a post people may want to revisit.

Bidet, it's like 1000 times better and you can worry less about Costco shortages.

I know it's like a meme, but every time I have to go without a bidet I feel like a Neanderthal. I'm like kinda close to sneaking one onto the work toilet once I'm keyholder.

Agree. Italians are the biggest users and use less paper ... :-)

Came here to say the same. I bought my first pre pandemic. When the pandemic came I was so grateful lol.

I can't tell if you're serious because it's super late where I am right now, but this is just lowkey good advice in general. Bidets rule lol

You don't dry all that water off your ass?

Mine has a blow dryer

Bidet-specific towel, my friend

Well, use goes from like a 10-15 square use without bidet to a consistent 3-4. Square consumption is the same from Taco Bell Tuesday to fiber Friday. You're never going to punch a finger through trying to get yourself clean and you never need to worry about smells. A $45 dollar accessory has never punched above its weight class so well before, imo.

Turns out that twerking does have benefits

You certainly don't want to use TP on your dripping wet asshole. Hand towels work best

set up a towel rotation

The better models come with dryers.

The bidets in Japan are on a different level.
