    Heat waves are a creation of Big Water to make us drink more water

    I drank the maximum for my weight and exertion that would just barely not cause water intoxication. Now, let me get a glass

    Roughly 5 liters.

    A lot of it was just replacing what I’d sweated during exercise, though.

    However, I also ate a bunch of cabbage, lettuce, and cucumber today, so that’s a lot of water too 😁

    I grew up without AC. Now it wasn’t as hot as it is now.
    But things you may not be aware you can do.

    Take cold showers.

    Yeah. That works.

    Take a shower and then stand there naked, wet, with a fan on. You will be shivering in no time.

    If you have long hair like I did. I would often just hold my head under the tub faucet. Soak my hair. And face. And that would cool me off.

    I sometimes did this multiple times a day when it was crazy hot.

    You all have access to water. Use it. It’s not just for drinking.

    There was a few instances where I filled the tub and just had a cold bath while reading a book or something.

    The water will stay mostly cool all day. No need to drain each time you get in. Just don’t pee in it.
