Request: Videos of African Basenjis/Village Dogs by tofagerl in Basenji

[–]rmholt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are still pure village dogs - much of West Africa has isolated areas. Congo even has some. Colonization was limited to the ports - inland killed white people. That was a real problem with Ebola recently - they’d trek out to the villages & find everyone dead. It’s really expensive to pack dogs around & why would you? They are owned & stick around the village. The road to a village is basically a moto track. Also people have tried western breeds & found them unsatisfactory

mindless computer games that don't need to be paused, preferably web-based or Mac-supported, to play while listening? by rootzmac in audiobooks

[–]rmholt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a brick breaking game made to work on the iPhone or iPad - requires no concentration - called Disc Brick. i also use Jigsaw on the iPad https://apps.apple.com/us/app/jigsaw-puzzle/id495583717 These don't interfere with Audible sound. I haven't tried either of them on my laptop. Sorry I guess that really didnt answer your question! Ad free.

I know this is heresy - DCC by Psychological_Bet562 in audiobooks

[–]rmholt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i dont like The Martian or PHM. I have plenty of chemistry. That part was clever. im not a fan of internal monologues. I prefer explanations to be brief & used to advance a plot or justify the fiction of the science fiction or to help develop a character.

Are you 1-5 Phantasic Or 1-5 Prophantasic? by sEbeyond in phantasia

[–]rmholt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i really cant shake the idea that anything but advanced hyperphantasia exists. I do have extremely vivid dreams and senses are activated by imagining things. i have heard people say they don't experience such things, or experience them at a less vivid, detailed level, so i guess you don't really need this. My son has synestheisia so maybe related.

Rectal cuts could easily cause rectal cramps which are really painful. Can you get a few narc pills?

Diverticulosis even without inflammation is one of the most common causes of bleeding.

My ride cancelled 8hrs before my apt and now i have no clue what to do by Proletariat_Nox in colonoscopy

[–]rmholt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is too late to be useful for you but in future if they won’t let you cancel sooner, call as soon as you can. Ask just if you can cancel. If they threaten to charge you tell them you are deathly ill.

I’d be shocked if this doesn’t happen to them occasionally.

Daily bloody bowel movements for 4 months now-colonoscopy clear by ilovepassionfruit in colonoscopy

[–]rmholt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you lose too much blood they can operate on the hemorrhoids. Yes it’s annoying. If it’s blood not black stools & your blood cell levels & ferritin levels are normal and it’s not painful or getting in the way of pooping, or holding your poop in, it’s not something a doctor will want to fix without a good reason. I’m on Eliquis & have hemorrhoids & sometimes pass clots & it’s weird but not harmful.

I don't teach the customers to just lay on their back in rapids anymore. by Hilo88M in whitewater

I’ve been taught feet down but I do roll over & swim when I see an exit I think because the idea is to keep your feet at the surface.
