It is fun to ponder how the hydrogen from the very start is in us now, and was in comets, dinosaurs and giant trees that died long ago and gave up their elements that could be in us now. As wise people said, “You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop” and “We are a way for the universe to know itself… on this pale blue dot.”
Nestle wants to know your location
True of literally everything in life. It’s just our turn to hold matter in this form and experience consciousness. Our planet is a virtually closed system wherein everything is recycled.
(Yes, I know we get water from comets, and perhaps even biological material from asteroids, etc., but in the relatively short term, all of that has been incorporated and we’re living in a virtually closed system.)
“From my rotting corpse plants will grow.”
Fuck that I’m going to live forever. Or die trying
Our water, comrade
It’s so nice to know that I’m drinking a small part of (insert favourite enemy)'s pee.
And also (insert favorite pornstar’s) pee! And some of mine!
I have a couple plastic milk jugs of water somewhere full of water that I have had for years, maybe decades. Probably not safe to drink at this point, but that is a long term acquisition.

Gag me with a spoon.
Ok Stilgar.
Dude, its a Friday night. I’m getting ready to relax, notgot into an extencial crisis…
I sometimes wonder if I ever drank water that has been my pee once
That depends: how many times have you been an astronaut on the ISS? (Don’t be embarrassed, it happens to the best of us.)
Yes.
Jesus’s pee? Doubtful.
Only because the biblical version of Jesus is likely apocrypha. But the dude those stories are based on? You certainly have. And also Einstein’s. And Hitler’s. And a bit of mine.
We’re talking individual molecules here, there are so many and they disperse so widely, it’s virtually impossible that you aren’t currently composed of molecules that haven’t also been parts of just about every other human that came before you.
Just like bussy
Water isn’t yours.
It’s Nestlé’s.
Sam Altman would like a word.
Altman VS Nestle Epic Rap Battle when?
“RAM isn’t a human right.” - Sam Altman
False. I have access to both oxygen and hydrogen as a welder. I have used both to make a flame that reacts both elements to CREATE water.
You’re welcome, everyone. I saved you all.
Well, I ate some food, breathed, and went to the toilet. You’re welcome.
During respiration, cells combine glucose and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water ((C_6H{12}O_6 + 6O_2 -> 6CO_2 + 6H_2O))._
Thats dirty peepee water and doesnt count.
You can never drink the same water twice because it’s not the same water and you are not the same man.
I’ve never even been a man at all, so that checks out.
Star wars ghost of Heraclitus nods approvingly.
A man’s flesh is his own; the water belongs to the tribe.
I’m hoarding quite some amount of water in my flesh.
He gives water for the dead!
The ownership of your flesh is temporary.
I want to be roasted and fed to the guests of my funeral.
It’s only fair that you have to fatten and tenderize yourself in preparation when the time comes.
“This is the best pork I’ve ever had!”
If you’ve ever had trichinosis make sure they know to cook you thoroughly.
it’s not like I’m RFK Jr or something…
I disagree. I have few canisters of water stored for emergencies in the cellar and I very much own them and if someone were to steal them I could call the police and they’d treat is as my property.
it’s still just your turn to drink that water, but your turn is very long
Mooooom! Fallibilist is hogging the water again!
