there's a species of marine isopod (like a roly-poly but in the ocean) that cuts out a fish's tongue, then replaces it. it attaches to the stub of tongue muscle and helps the fish eat food for the rest of its life, feeding on the fish's mucus.

In light of the @TxDPS post perpetuating the passive fentanyl exposure myth, I feel compelled to share this @Filtermag_org article from @clairezagorski. Truly a masterpiece in public science communication. filtermag.org/fentanyl-touch…
