I personally know the harm worms wriggling around your body can do.

    Does this end with her dumping a bear corpse in central park

      She recovered and is totally fine. Also just because someone had worms in them that died and calcified in the area of the brain responsible for empathy or good judgment doesn't mean they need to be stigmatized for it for the rest of their lives.

          The Worm loves us.

          It will always love us, and thus it always has.

          It winds around the hot heart of our home star.

          It winds around every infinitesimal loop of genetic information.

          It provokes a shuddering series of cataclysms in the planetary crust of our home, but when our star grows cold, that cataclysm will warm us.

          We understand so much more.

    The part of this story that amazed me was that the dark web dealer sent real worms. If you sent capsules with something inert like sand in them, what would be the consequences? Nobody is going to be able to tell it's not real before the escrow is released.

    Sending the real worms is an actual legal risk, I'd think.

      That's what's wrong with kids these days. This small business owner obviously takes pride in their online parasite business. Delivering quality, real tape worms that give their customers real weight loss results.

    If you're going to go through all the trouble of getting stuff off the dark web, just get meth or amphetamine sulfate. Those are actually used as extreme weight loss medication.

      Something about that guy gives me the heebie jeebies beyond just the gross medical subject material he covers

      I don't want to slander him if he's actually a nice guy but if you told me his favorite thing as a kid was burning ants with a magnifying glass or dissecting frogs I wouldn't be surprised

      A woman was having trouble losing weight and saw some post on Instagram about how tape worms would held shed the pounds like nothing. She used Bitcoin to buy some online and the capsules with the worms in them included two different species, one that stays in your gut that's found in cows and another common in pigs that can travel through tissue. She started getting brain swelling and seizures because they were in her face and the liquid barrier that separates your brain from your skull.

    There was a period where I considered going for microbiology. Witnessing things like fly-strike and the like probably broke some shit in my brain and I was just riveted while studying stuff like worms and fleas.
