No, we just have a chance to spend however much time in the bath while nobody is hammering the door shouting "How fucking long are you going to stay there?! You're not alone, you know!!!"

Lonely is not the same as alone though. It's people who live with others but still take very long baths that we need to worry about.
All good just had a wank
Ok, Lester Burnham.
And you reply "not alone? not yet" and shotgun-blast the door to stop the annoyance. Ask them on the way out how long they'll be bleeding out, as they "are messing up the floor, you know".
I'm more of an actions-over-words kinda guy. A real people-pleaser.
I’m sitting on the floor of the tub right now, letting the shower water just hit me until the hot runs out. It’s my daily therapy ritual of disassociation and white noise.
I do it in the hopes the hot steamy water will cause me to lose consciousness and after collapsing my head will be propped - mouth agape - in a way that I’ll drown without having to worry about the actual scary drowning part. 👏
And yea, it does feel good too. 🥺
na i am just a hidden reptiloid trying to stay warm ok
It's true. I take cold showers now because when I wake up under the covers next to another human body I'm fucking boiling!
I feel attacked.
