What better way to relax in these troubling times than with a sudsy bath? Lush Cosmetics has some suggestions for bathing together, and they’ve included same-sex couples in a super cute new ad campaign.
Technically, the images are part of a Valentine’s Day promotion, but they seem nicely timed to remind the world that even with a violent anti-gay regime taking over the United States, tolerance is still the order of the day among all good people. In fact, an image featuring two women directly references the Women’s March.
To everyone marching today, time for some well-deserved bubbles! #bettertogether #womensmarch #loveislove pic.twitter.com/LDWuSX9EkU

Reaction has been just about entirely favorable, aside from some jealous griping from people who don’t have a bathtub large enough for two people.
Our Valentine's Day goodies are even better when you've got someone to share them with. Online and in shops now: https://t.co/e7OJujFK3I pic.twitter.com/sPryxZ3icE

So hooray for capitalism! Even if our leaders don’t represent us, at least our bath products do.
How about we take this to the next level?
