Daily 7 for swc july '24 How To Drink Water The first step to drinking water is finding a source of water. This could be anything from a stream in the middle of the forest to a simple glass of water in your kitchen. Other sources include, foods, different bodies of water, water fountains, just plain fountains, the blood of other humans and yourself, rain, sewer water, juice, shower or bath water, clouds, and many others. Most poisons include water, though I wouldn’t suggest that as a source. A word to the wise: people will judge if you drink sewer water. The next step is acquiring the water. This could be extremely tricky or as easy as turning on the tap. To acquire water, you will need a vessel. Vessels include glasses, water bottles, animal skins, human transportation, people, and other things. Your vessel should be watertight, though it is not a requirement. Fabrics are often bad at holding water for periods of time longer than a minute, though that can vary depending on the fabric. It also must have a place to drink the water from. This place can be forced by you or can already exist. To acquire water from the middle of a forest could involve a lot of travel or none at all. I would suggest you use the source closest to you, or that is easiest to get to. Drinking sewer water will most likely involve climbing into a sewer. If your water source is another person, it is a good idea to have their consent. Once you get to the source, get the water into your vessel. This might be the hardest part. I will not go into details on this part, as there are far too many possibilities. I would suggest purifying the water at this point, unless you want to get sick. Now on to actually drinking the water. You need to get the water into your mouth from your vessel. There are two ways to go about doing that. The first way is to politely ask gravity to help you and place the vessel above your face, witn the opening close to your mouth, while still above it. The second way is to suck. Close your mouth around the opening and suck in the water. You have to make sure that there aren’t other openings, because then you would just suck air in through that opening. If you have a straw, the straw is under water, so this principle doesn’t apply. To swallow the water, push the water towards the back of your throat and down. If you drink too much water at a time, your stomach might feel heavy with water. Tips for drinking blood: 1) As I mentioned before, make sure the person you are drinking from has given their consent. This could be you or another person. 2) A syringe is the best way to extract blood. Movies may depict it differently, but always carry a syringe with you to extract blood. 3) Once you have extracted the blood, make sure to drink it in a glass. That’s just polite. 4) The best way to drink blood is iced. I know this from experience
