I really do hope that a loose piece of Pepperoni doesn't get caught in their air scrubbers.

They wash that pizza down with filtered urine. I was watching a video the other day about the ISS. They can't do laundry and discard their clothes in a capsule that's jettisoned to Earth.

Wow a real party , got to have your watered down urine lol. Why don't they bring their washing home with them or is it disposable stuff ? Do they vent their waste into space (?) maybe that's what the bacteria is that's stuck on the ISS hull ?

Feces residue on the ISS. I think all the human waste is also loaded onto the capsule. If it doesn't decelerate then it'll totally burn up on reentry.
How fast does the Space Station travel? | Cool Cosmos
The International Space Station travels in orbit around Earth at a speed of roughly 17,150 miles per hour (that's about 5 miles per second!). This means that the Space Station orbits Earth (and sees a sunrise) once every 92 minutes! You can see the ISS' location and speed at this link which also has a real-time video feed from cameras attached to the outside of the station.
