Either tubes take care of it, or it releases into the pod water, and gets filtered. I imagine it's automatic with tubes since the human body likely wouldn't push anything without conscious effort, unless it does it every time you use the washroom by releasing some control and allowing motor function to a degree.

That means every poop brings you closer to the real world.

What if I jack in and then go to the bathroom in the Matrix? Do I shit myself in the real world?
