Here’s a not so fun fact- life on land is filled with parasites too! And every organism that breathes air is teeming with them, including you and me! Most of us who live under modern conveniences are mostly free of the really big scary ones, but even the healthiest of us still host millions, if not billions of unwanted travelers on our bodies.
I can live with microscopic parasites or, at most, you know those mites and shit that live in your eyelashes. Im not going to be like, oh, cool, some crustacean can just swim into my eye and eat it and i just have to deal, that’s cool.
Let’s not keep talking about it though because honestly the prevalence of fucked up parasites almost makes me want to PTC a dose of ivermectin as a prophylactic. It’s hard not to think “what if one of those times I was barefoot in the mud I got infested with some fucked up worm.”
i really need to go to the doctor just to check shit up because I’m probably in decent health but i’m at this point of, yeah I have insurance now, but i’m almost broke and what if the checkup ends up costing a shitload of money I don’t have when I have many other pressing needs
