The fourth installment of my rambling series, where I talk about about the guy behind the Plok avatar. It's very me-centric, so feel free to dip out if you want. If you do stick around, potentially gross / boring content ahead.

I've fallen down a rabbit hole of podiatry videos on YouTube. There's something oddly satisfying about watching out-of-control nails getting trimmed, and I feel like I've learned a lot about podiatry. Gosh, sometimes it's so bad the doctor has to use a dremel, a power tool, to file the nails down because the regular nippers aren't strong enough. It's crazy how long people wait before seeking medical attention. I'm a morbidly curious person. I wanna see the most extreme cases people come in with. I want to see the grossest, craziest conditions. I wanna see fungus run amok, the worst ingrown toenails ever, the thickest calluses and warts. I wanna see whole toenails removed and big abscesses lanced. I've always been sorta interested in learning about diseases and conditions and seeing how they're treated (and how best to avoid getting them). I've never been squeamish about seeing surgeries and I'm not sure that anything grosses me out really. The videos I've watched have millions of views so I guess there's a big community of people out there like me. The point I'm making is take good care of yo feet, y'all.
