England is doing this with extra steps. We just dump our raw sewage in the sea. Yay for privatised water companies.
Nothing says “I’m British” more than getting sepsis due to falling from a narrowboat into a canal that could possibly have Excalibur or dangerous feces.
in the sea
really? I thought they took the nearest stream /s
Both is correct, depending on the timeframe you’re looking at.
If the floor were solid maybe…
But can you imagine trying to take a shit during bad storm or even a hurricane?!? That shit would be intense. Might be something like a nuclear Poseidon’s Kiss. Or maybe a kaiju sized bidet.
Tried to poop, got a 35,000 gallon ocean enema instead.
I think a solid floor would ruin it. This looks fucking awesome
I think the major concern would be whatever is in front of the main “bowl”. Is that just accumulated shit from people with really bad aim? Or, is that accumulated rust from people with bad aim and a lack of regular maintenance?
the latter. with the floor being a grate, I reckon people just freepiss in there like it’s some sort of sink. or weather and salt…
one bad weld and some rust and you’re falling, with half a turd hanging out, into the deep blue.
Less an OSHA violation and more an OSHIT violation.
freepiss in there like it’s some sort of sink
…note to self: do not wash hands at @flandish@lemmy.world ’s house
id really want to free piss in there.
there’s something very primordial in me that wants to free piss in there
don’t let the world hold you back. you can tinkle right now if you believe.
no I can’t,
I just went and me bladder be empty
freepiss
lol
I think that’s whatever material was used to connect to toilet to the grate. Maybe caulk, or maybe something else.
fish
i’m not proud of myself
Pinkeye?
Some fish
You can even see the wall’s discoloration from decades of shit.
At least four decades.
moat won’t fill itself up.
Élégance
If the fish and the birds can doo it, you can too! Fly, my pretties!
You see, that is the beauty of shitting from such a place…
…you have a not-zero chance of shitting on a bird.
That deck is probably 60, maybe 100 feet above the water. Serious air time.
Most toilets on ferries around Venice still work like this. Venice has a great waste removal system, at low tide, pee just runs into the water but poop gets stuck to sewers, then at high tide the tide takes away the poop.
Then tourists romantically run their hands into the canal water from a gondola ride…while RFK Jr. swims past doing laps.

rofls
How bad does it smell at low tide?
Going in the bathroom with my phone in hand: wish me luck!
id so put a bookshelf in there, also a permanent marker tied to the wall for people to log whenever they drop their phone
Beware of diarrhea and a windy day combo.
I would worry more about just pissin.

Where street?
“No thank you”??? Tf do you mean, what do you think fuckoff big blue whales do?
Pissing down into a body of water is one of life’s subtle joys, and you poo-poo the prospect of pooping into one?

but then my neighbor yells at me to get out of his pool.

at that height you’re never going to get satisfying laminar flow. it’s gonna just turn into mist.
I’d be fine standing and pissing into it, but I think I’d get a little uncomfortable sitting down.
clearly none of these commenters have heard of the butthole barracuda
that was my nickname in high school
Don’t know if things have changed, but that’s what toilets on trains looked like when I was in high-school. You could see the ground rushing under you.
Were toilets on Zeppelins that way too
Dang! Dropped my phone.
If you go and get it, please pick up my keys too
Maybe a seagull will return it.
My fear would be the floor breaking out underneath you.
Imagine if it had a rattle.
I would honestly be shocked it if didn’t have a rattle
Ahhhh I’m imagining it!
