Forget face masks, toilet paper rolls are flying off the shelves...Newspapers and wet wipes are not designed to be flushed, but water is--and is the preferred method in many parts of the world, according to Metro UK,...The news outlet provides a hands-on guide on how to clean up after nature calls:
--Fill the lota with lukewarm water.
--After doing your business, remain on the throne and lean forward, back or to the side.
--Pour copious amounts of water on the appropriate location.
--Use your hand to aid in the cleansing.
--Wash your hands thoroughly and dry up.

An electric toilet bidet - install one and you’ll never go back to paper.

They’re probably hoarding for re-sell at a jacked-up price.
One thing I learned as a college kid years ago doing the bar/concert scene. ALWAYS carry pocket tissues.
That memory came in handy when I just visited the ME.

Was in two Walmart stores yesterday. No alcohol or hand sanitizer but plenty of hydrogen peroxide, dish and hand soap and full shelves of toilet paper.
To: BenLurkin
Corncobs ain’t out o style! Neither is twigs. Wash rags can be bought cheap. Just launder after with soap and bleach.

I remember a man who, after he done his business at a construction site, used a handful of fiberglass insulation.
Hospital time for him.

The outlet is grounded. Never had a problem with two toilets in the last half-dozen years - and my wife would probably get rid of me before she got rid of the toilet bidet.
