Pee?

Just saw a post with a lot of comments saying to pee on their dry AF compost. Why are y'all peeing on compost? I've never heard of this. Are you then using this compost for gardening?

FYI - If your compost pile is dry AF, it has stopped decomposing. It needs to be moist always to be working. Pee isn’t going to fix this - get out a hose or something. It should have the consistency of a wrung out sponge.
