I once found a pair of barefoot running sandals online that were otherwise normal with rubber soles etc, but had a copper rivet inserted through the sole to facilitate that connection to earth.

There is an actual belief out there that your feet get some sort of power by connecting to mother nature barefoot. It’s insane woo nonsense, but that meme lifehack literally would be something they might do, lol

There are people who tie a wire around their toe to ground them to the earth when they sleep in bed… So

The linoleum floor of a supermarket is a godless abomination, further from mother nature than any other surface

Linoleum floor in a supermarket? Haven’t seen that in the US nor Mexico.
TORFdot0@lemmy.world 9 months ago
I’ve seen it in local grocery stores in really small towns. Never a supermarket

Still quite common in Australia, in old, shitty places

Are you sure that it’s linoleum, and not VCT?

‘linoleum’ is one of those words you read and immediately have to feel what its like to say

Connecting to some basic ass tile work.

Daring to call linoleum “tile work” is like calling a Walmart a “home”
zakobjoa@lemmy.world 9 months ago
But those are tiles in the he picture.

ugh, i hate that woo-woo “grounding” bullshit. gives the rest of the barefooters a bad name. honestly there’s so many good reasons to go unshod without bringing in magical nonsense.

Wanna get grounded, stick a fork in an electrical socket.
