Would we still feel that desire to "breathe" via our lungs if we're otherwise getting oxygen though?
Maybe the same channel? It did appear to be an enema of some sort, so the evacuation route might be the same. Farting contests might be about to get really intense.
If they filled your lungs with nitrogen so there was no co2 you probably wouldn't notice any sensation of needing to breathe, aside from habit? If this is real?
Combine this with an artificial heart with no beat to really feel like the living dead
thats amazing actually wow!
The butt being able to absorb the oxygen doesn't really also mean that there's a mechanism for the butt to expel the carbon dioxide though. We do that through our lungs by exhaling and we clearly don't expel enough carbon dioxide through non-exhaling methods to keep up with the amount we need to exhale.
The co2 is farded out
That does raise a good point. I don't know human biology well enough to give an educated answer though. If oxygen can be absorbed rectally via this fluid, perhaps the fluid can exchange CO2 the same way though? Or maybe via a different fluid? Bit rough on the ass but any port in a storm I suppose.
I would bet that you would have something equivalent to a phantom limb syndrome but for the diaphragm. I can't imagine something so hardwired and subconscious goes away just because the basic chemical need is satisfied.
Absolutely. Again, way better than suffocating to death but discomfort would be inevitable, at least for a while.
