    I learned recently that in space you might not need to piss as the piss floats in your bladder.

    normally you get 3/4s full and really need a slash, but in space it can fill up totally without you feeling anything and then just bust out your urethra without notice.

    honestly, it was probably a fair point.

      Your bladder changes volume to hold urine; there’s no floating, just pressure. Gravity affects that pressure though.
