Sonic Shower Thought: Someone has probably used holodeck technology to feel like they're pooping at home.

I know people who only poop at home. I can't imagine being out in space for years. With holodeck technology... Someone is bound to have written a program that simulated their bathroom at home.

We didn’t need any more supporting data to cement “cleaning out the holodecks” as the worst job in starfleet
- Can’t you get it to clean itself?
  
  It’s a job in Lower Decks which I think makes it canon.
  
  That being said, it would be hilarious if holodecks can be self-cleaning but they still make ensigns do it anyway to “build character”
  
  It’s a matter assembler disassembler. Should be perfect for it.
  
  On the other hand people wear costumes to the holodeck so I’m not sure.
Man, cleaning out the bio filters was bad enough with all the porn…
Actually, I tend to think of this ship as home. But if it's Earth you're talking about, I try to get back whenever I can.
Someone has probably used transporter technology to Harry Potter their poop away
- Like before you even go to the bathroom. That would be super weird feeling.
  
  “O’Brien, set biofilters for feces and urine”
  
  Have you ever had a gas bubble in your gut that shifted and now you feel fine?
- A whole new spin on a “transporter buffer overflow”.
  
  What are you keeping in the buffer doc?
I hate how right you are.
Isn't that implied in a Lower Decks episode That people mainly use the holodeck for the bathroom
- That all depends on what you're using the bathroom for.
  
  Blumpkin?
- To jerk off. That's why it sucks to have to clean them.
  
  Seeing as how the lower deckers have shared communal space at all times when off duty, I too, would want a nice private place to spank the space monkey
They have their appartement and family on the ship though. Isn't it their home at some point?
