Few weeks ago I got a nasty norovirus and once it passed I started drinking water again, but I swear no amount of water I’ve drank since then seems to be enough. I still feel dehydrated.
i would wager you're missing electrolytes. that's what it is when i feel that way. i will grab some gatorade or other sports drink (get the one with sugar unless you have diabetes), mix it with an equal part water because deer gods it is too sugary, then add a one-fingered pinch (something like a quarter teaspoon, but it doesn't have to be precise) of table salt. not enough to make it taste salty. more salt than it already has. i drink that when i'm dehydrated. it's the about the right salinity to absorb fast, and the sports drink bullshit makes it not taste horrible.

You can't overthrow capitalism if you are dehydrated. Trust me, I've tried.

The problem is I am so tired of pissing, too much piss, I want to piss less.

Diabetes will do that to ya.

Or just drinking a lot of water

Pinch of salt, not enough to overwhelm the taste but also enough to help retain some water.
Idk how much it'd affect blood pressure if it's only a little bit

True.
If I drank enough water, I would die from water overdose, and then I wouldn't have any of these problems anymore.

Humans are also mostly water.

Beer tastes better than humans though
OwOarchist@pawb.social · 4 pts · 159d
Agree to disagree.
Beer actually tastes pretty bad, IMO. Long Pork, though, is quite good if prepared properly.

Humans taste better than beer, tastes like chicken
