Drinking Fountains

"I've always wondered whether you could drink slowly enough, and eliminate fast enough, that you just sort of peed continuously. But I'm afraid to try because I worry someone might call while I'm doing it and ask what I'm up to, and I won't be able to think of a lie."

Hyponatremia.

Hypo-, meaning low; -natr- derived from natrium, Latin for sodium; -emia, meaning presence in blood.

Low sodium presence in blood.

Isn't Epsom salt like a majority water?

Would that prevent hyperhydration, or would you need it to have more than just salt? 🤔

lol no. It says "a day". It says nothing about when exercising or sweating your ass off outside when you might need to actually care about adding salt.

I drink about a gallon a day of water and my normal diet replenishes things just fine. Your kidneys shouldn't be dumping a bunch of stuff out that you're already low on. They're not mindless filters that run at a constant rate.

That's what makes regenerative farming so good, all that piss and shit make it great for the crops, no need for other fertilizers

You're going to need to replace a few electrolytes also.

So, the modern day version of smoking? Oh, wait. They’d listen to each other, rather than be chuckle fucks — okay, there were some.

It's like a salty Hoosier unable to remember suit because he got not-paper rich hustling people that forgot what games are for. That's why they got stripped of major from the deck. Removing a point of game doesn't remove reality like pushing a delete button in the third grave doesn't remind you that math was fucking important. What's a fucking pun, anyway?

Either ~4.55 L (imperial) or ~3.79 L (US).

Ugh. Why do they do this to us?
