Let's get this out of the way upfront: Plenty of people use portable devices - phones, chiefly, but also mobile gaming consoles like the Nintendo Switch and the Steam Deck - while on the toilet. There's a good chance, in fact, that you're reading this article on the toilet.
"Look, there are two types of people in the world," said Nir Eyal, an author and lecturer who writes about habits, focus and human behavior. "People who check their phone in the bathroom, and people who lie about checking their phone in the bathroom." First, sitting for prolonged periods of time could lead to hemorrhoids, sometimes-painful swollen veins in the anal area. Some of that comes down to the unique functional design of the toilet.
"If you're sitting for too long and not going to the bathroom, that kind of process actually stops," Raj said. "Your body can start to not recognize those signals as well, so it can lead to constipation if you're sitting for prolonged periods of time on the toilet without actually having a bowel movement." This risk, Raj noted, is more likely to be one of many factors in issues like constipation, rather than the driving force.
If you're staying within healthy time limits and - crucially - always maintaining good personal hygiene, your behavior probably doesn't need to change. But if you'd like to make a change, there are some simple ways to go about it. It's also important to remember: phones and other mobile devices aren't inherently bad, nor are they insurmountably distracting. If you find yourself perpetually losing track of time, consider whether you're attuned to bigger stressors in your life, and to how you're feeling in general.
LauncherWP nireyal I never realized people brought their smart phones into the bathroom with them. And knowing that, I am not tempted to join their ranks. (1/2)

LauncherWP The Washington Post Twitter account is actually owned by elonmusk, not the Washington Post. This goes for every Twitter account. Musk owns them all, including the tweets and the private messages. He can read them, delete them, share them, etc., because they are his, not yours.
LauncherWP It helps to read—diverts your focus and lets you relax. You know what I mean.
LauncherWP No, we all don't.
Stupid application of research money.
Forty years too late. Thanks.
