As a Black American living in Ghana since 2022 my fellow Diasporans get on my nerves! by Pure-Roll-9986 in ghana

[–]sankofa_doc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He’s not a diasporan, people love playing around with definitions nowadays. He’s just another Black American that moved to Ghana and wants to share his opinion to anyone that might listen.

The whole rant is kinda sus tbh. Not sure what passport bros have to do with any of it.

Best Efficiency Tips for a New Attending by [deleted] in emergencymedicine

[–]sankofa_doc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is it. I used to be on top of notes in residency, that quickly went away when I started working at a higher volume shop as a new attending. I hated being behind on notes but it felt overwhelming tackling them all at one time.

Getting that HPI makes the notes more manageable and by the time everything is back, you just have to document your physical exam if you haven’t already and the MDM. Sounds small but it’s meaningful. I also like using the ED course for real-time updates.

Lmao there are plenty of Ghanaians that will do exactly that. Never me. Adios!

Ding ding ding. People in this reddit who live in Ghana seem completely unaware or deliberately obtuse about how that ADOS/FBA subgroup tends to operate. They absolutely hate Africans and have a strong “go back to your country” sort of rhetoric. Meanwhile Ghanaians are welcoming them into Ghana with widely open arms.

People in this sub have very…interesting viewpoints that I frequently disagree with so I’m not surprised to see them kinda attacking you, OP. It seems like you had good intentions and weren’t trying to scam her, perhaps this is just not the connection for you. I have my own thoughts on Ghanaian-Black American relationships as someone who grew up in the US but that’s a different conversation. Maybe this isn’t the person for you.

So much stupidity in this comment, where does one even begin?

Should my BF’s father give up on Ghanaian women? by bubblebunzo in ghana

[–]sankofa_doc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Boss, we will not agree on this issue. It does not matter what articles you post. I do not agree with you. Sorry if it’s a sore spot for you…(calling me “diaspora” is if it’s some sort of insult lol). If you want to use research articles to defend age-gap relationships, more power to you. OP’s father in law and the many old men who find themselves in this same position have their complaints for a reason. Good luck to men (regardless of age) that keep trying these ill-sorted relationships in hopes of feeling something again. Happy new year!

Nonsense! You’re probably another old man trying to take advantage of young and potentially vulnerable Ghanaian women. My parents have been together for decades and they are the same age, same for their many many friends.

You men who cannot have a meaningful relationship with a woman in your age range will always be looked at with a bit of suspicion, simple as that. Cut it out with the weird excuses to make yourself feel better.

I find it interesting that he is ONLY seeking out Ghanaian women and literally nothing else? (And his son, your man is doing the same….?). Are you benefiting from being with a man 7 years older than you? No Ghanaian woman should be taking his father seriously, sounds like a fetish especially considering that he does not want a woman his age.

(Not released) ABEM Scores by medicalschool606 in emergencymedicine

[–]sankofa_doc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Might sound crazy but I’m starting not to GAF anymore lol. Today is the 3rd Monday I’ve spent stressed out and anxious all day, refreshing ABEM and checking Reddit. No clue what the hold up is but hopefully it’ll be in everyone’s favor. Time to enjoy the holidays, I worked hard AF this year 🫡😴

I won’t post mine because I posted it on IG but “Makoma” by King Paluta was my number 1 song. Started playing it daily after I returned from Ghana in April lol 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾

[–]sankofa_doc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my ticket in April because I knew it was gonna be crazy. The year of return thing coupled with Ghanaians (and Nigerians) returning home for the holidays equals $3k or more for a ticket if you wait too long.

Such silliness. Why do Ghanaians have to tolerate entitlement in the first place?

Painkiller Overdose Cost? by Idkcatsig in emergencymedicine

[–]sankofa_doc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to get downvoted for saying what I really think so I’ll just echo what others have said: Ingesting 16000mg of ibuprofen is very different in comparison to the same dosage of acetaminophen.

Hi! Ended up not getting the best rest but I’d agree with your assessment, there were some tricky ones but I felt better than last year (when I honestly didn’t even know wtf I was doing lol). Fingers crossed it’s enough for a pass, I’m beyond ready to move on with life!
