It’s called toilet plume.
A toilet plume is the invisible to the naked eye, cloud-like dispersal of raw, infectious sewage particles as a result of flushing a toilet. Flush particles rapidly rise out of the bowl and several feet into the air after flushing. Aerosolized droplets can remain suspended in the air for tens of minutes between users, posing an inhalation risk. These invisible particles go on to coat and spread onto surfaces like floors and counters or objects like hand towels, bathmats, or even toothbrushes.



I dated a guy that didn’t get sick. Like ever.
I found out later that he didn’t use soap (ever) or wash his hands or brush his teeth. (In my defense, he was tall and pretty and endlessly fascinating!) He would take multiple showers a day, but just no soap.
My point is, just because YOU don’t get sick, doesn’t mean you aren’t spreading around sick. Dude used his… layer as an offensive shield and didn’t see an issue with it.
There has to be a balance, for sure. Because that bio layer is part of our immune system. But also, what is that balance? Surely it can’t be being… that stinky, can it?
This kind of reminds me a little bit of the SUV argument of the 90s, where you don’t want to be the small car on the road, so just buy an SUV (and murder others).
