And you're also full of shit.
Not quite full, the biological signals are very clear when that part of me is full
I prefer to say I'm half empty of shit.
pooptimist, not pissimist.
I have an ileostomy, so without large intestine my body does not accumulate shit inside, it just leaks out. One could even argue it is not really shit until large intestine handles it... Anyway this means you're all wayyyy shittier than me
Now I need someone to come teach us what shit is called before it erupts. What's the magna equivalent for poop Lemmy??
food ➡️ bolus ➡️ chyme 🔀 chyle / feces ➡️ excrement
Slight correction. It's a bolus all the way through. That means ball. You'll have a food bolus, then a chyme bolus, then a chyle bolus turns into a lump of feces I guess. Lots of little boli (boluses? Bolodes.)as you eat. As illustrated below
large intestinal effluent? (I have no idea! 🥴💩)
Food
