      Oh but it is. They’re showering in the main bathroom. This one is just for ceremonial purposes, it runs 24/7.

    That would be awful! I’d have to spend 45 minutes adjusting each one to the perfect temperature!

      Did you send the underage bathroom children home? Not only will you have to adjust each one now, you won’t have children to abuse before bed. That’s not very billionaire of you.

    Do billionaires ask people to save water? I’m not sure most billionaires really care how much water they or anyone else uses. I don’t think most billionaires even pretend to be conservationists.

    This does save water because the water comes out at 1200psi and cleans them in less than a second so only a pint of water is used.

    they’ve not turned on the one at the top yet, they’re obviously trying to save water by doing that. /s

    We still should though. We outnumber them hundreds of millions to one.

    Their hypocrisy is a good reason to ignore them. They’re not role models.

    That’s still just a drop in the bucket.

    A single almond uses 5 liters of water to grow to harvest. And yet somehow that’s supposed to be more environmentally friendly as a milk alternative.

    They always blame em the consumer instead of having industry be more efficient.

      You’re joking, right? Dairy Milk requires not just way more water but also space, work and a deeply unethical business concept (cows have to constantly be impregnated to produce milk, the antibiotics they’re given en’ mass are destroying our most important drugs’ effectiveness, the food we give the cows could feed multiple humans, ecetera).

      Almond milk is also the most demanding of the alternatives as far as I know. Oat milk is even more efficient, and other than with cows we can still make farming them more efficient (drip-farming, Solarfarming - crops have higher yields and lower water needs in partial shadow as well - ecetera).

      Not sure where you got your opinion from. There are good alternatives.

        The scapegoating of almonds is popular disinfo at least in California. It’s part of the water wars. I’m pretty sure it’s promoted by the meat industry and other nefarious characters. I’ve heard it many times.

        Some background and debunking:

          There is a lot of disinformation for sure. We are also growing a lot of crops in places we shouldn’t be, and almonds in California are a pretty good example.

        If you blend plant-based ‘meat’, it makes ‘milk!’

      Now compare it to the water used to grow animal feed and the animals themselves.

      haha, yes. because if you count this gray water, then a cow uses a very large amount even before she ever produces milk for the first time.

        Why would you count the grey water when they were clearly talking about drinking water

    In the year of our lord 2026, it’s more like they TELL us to save water while standing in that shower making constant eye contact with the camera with water running down their face. And just before their message ends you see a cloud zip past a window behind them because they’re on a private jet while recording it.

    those people that kayaked to epstein island in a hurricane found out that epstein had a weird building featuring a kitchen with children’s tableware, an office that also kinda looks like a casting couch kinda setup, and one of those kind of showers which had an oily floor.
