He doesn't joke, a lot of people only poop once a week. I have friends who work in healthcare and it's real. Eat your vegetables and drink lots of water, folks.

That's wild. Doesn't it hurt?

these people often have so many other underlying health issues that feeling like complete shit in general is just baseline existence

I poop like twice a week and it's not painful or anything. Just typically more at once vs a lot of small ones. But I also don't have that fucked up of a diet, and I drink a lot of water. If you're only going once a week then you're probably not eating something right.

Nurses should be pooping more than once a week

They also have to come down from the trees to poop for some reason. This leaves then vulnerable to predators. Probably why they poop so sparsely.

Just poop right from the treetop! Every other tree dweller does it!

My pet theory is that once sloths did poop from atop their trees but it made them too powerful which disbalanced the ecosystem.
