He remains this way for about three hours, making bizarre noises, pretending to be a new species that must learn to walk and talk and eat, etc. And he communicates with other life forms by way of the antennae on his head. Eventually we jam a tube from a waterbong into it's mouth and figure he's learned all he needs to know.

Alcohol makes your brain shrink, but only if you allow it to dehydrate you, this is one of the reasons you can get a hangover.

IME, dehydration is the only reason for a hangover. Match your alcohol intake with equivalent water intake and kiss your hangovers goodbye forever.
easier said than done tho. for one thing you'll spend most of your time in the bathroom or doing the pee dance and for another you'll get too drunk to remember to drink water.

yup, when i was just a kiddie (14) my father had a little talk about alkohol with me and told me about how important it is to make sure to drink loads of water while drinking.
somehow that just stuck in my head, and ive always made sure to match my alc intake with plenty of water. also ive always made sure to have a big glass of water before going to bed if ive been drinking.
and im happy to say that to this day, decades later, i have still never ever experienced a hangover (even if ive been pigdrunk the night before. slow, yes. still drunk, yes. pain, headache or discomfort, never.

I started a 6 liter batch of mead this week and plan to add some dry mushrooms in 3-4 weeks so ask me again in a few months, another option is extraction with 85% ethanol (moonshine) and adding that later to the mead
Sorry but i think Methanol in commercial alcohol is the source of the hangover. I have drank 2 pints of 40%abv Moonshine without methanol and no decent food and no hangovers With mead the resin in the honey is be the source for weird side effects but you can remove it before brewing.
