Fun fact 1: On the ISS people get constipated a lot because without gravity the time-to-poop receptors don’t get tickled enough and when they finally do it’s too late for it to come out easily so again without the help of gravity they have to resort to rooting around in there to remove the dookie pebbles manually. There are gloves provided to astronauts for that specific purpose.
Fun fact 2: This act is much easier to perform for women because they can use the glove from the front. Also no prostate in the way.

That why you need to bring your poop knife with you to space.

This is one of those things that must have been an absolute shit thing to discover the first time. Sure now we are ready and can prepare. But having to diagnose and improvise a solution would not be pleasant.
