As of a few minutes ago old.reddit.com now seems to requre logging in to access it.

Shame as it was still the best place to browse for info about some niche interests.

Edit: Seems like they might be testing the change as it is hit or miss at the moment.

Edit: Adding this to My flilters in uBlock Origin seems to fix the issue for the time being:

I could start streaming my showers? I take two a day

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 8 points 11 hours ago

I know that you meant this as a joke, but this is literally how online communities are built. One really dedicated nutter just keeps posting OC whether anyone else wants it or not, and slowly other people start adding stuff because it's an active place.

So, you go right ahead and you do you.

Golden or otherwise?

(Trying to come up with a good reason for multiple showers per day, unless you live somewhere hotter and more humid than Satan’s asshole)

[–] XeroxCool@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Not OC, but I'll sometimes take 2 a day in the summer. I'm pretty oily. Showering in the morning is fine for my skin feelings through the day, but it means I'm oiliest overnight and my sheets will show it. If I shower before bed, I end up feeling uncomfortably greasy by dinner the next day. So, two showers keeps me feeling acceptable. Summers typically hover around 30C and 60%+ humidity for two months, on top of additional outdoor activities.

Or, I guess, shortest alternative answer, I know several people that shower right after morning exercise and are otherwise night showerers.
