    A lot of human survival is based on heuristics, if you can tell there’s a corpse in something, you probably shouldn’t drink or eat it… As a general rule of thumb

    And this is why it’s dangerous to drink ocean-water.

    Also why you should drink lots of that delicious peepee pool-water

    ETA: If you’re having dinner with someone who dies in the middle of eating their food, you can safely finish their food, drink, and poisoned soup as long as they didn’t die face-down in it.

        That’s what’s literally happening in your kidneys. Your primary urine is low concentrated, and gets converted into high concentrated secondary urine through several fun biophysicochemical reactions. Boring piss gets to be exciting piss. Wohoo?

      The salt an ocean water will make you sick long before you get sick from decay-based pathogens. Takes about 100 g of salt to kill somebody…

      And the chlorine and pool water will probably make you feel poorly as well.

        You need sugar-water to counter it.

            You need to aim at hyperglycemia and diabetic shock so you don’t need to worry about your kidneys alone.
