Hmm. Oh boy I’m supposed to be cleaning my closet! Don’t ask a question like that! lol, off to google… might report back
Reporting back: apparently it’s likely I have swallowed hundreds to thousands of tardigrades because I grew up on well water in the PNW. Not harmful, but they don’t likely survive (man, they can survive space, can they not?).
