You’re ruining the meme

Edit: didn’t think I needed this: /s

Thanks, never seen that one

But why is there a picture of the back of some dude’s neck?

My cats are the main reason I’m building a NAS

Oh jeez thank you 😻😻😻

He’ll fit right in.

Good info. France and Norway are appealing, I have a friend with family over there who likes me. The Netherlands is on my list as well, I’ve been there a few times and they don’t currently have any political drama that I’m aware of.

Yes I know, and you shouldn’t. I voted for everyone who was against Trump.

I might just stay here and start building guillotines.

Cool, now I can lose a whole gaming system

What’s your other top 2 country? If I go I think I’m going to switch continents. I would prefer there to be a whole ocean between me and this bullshit.

I would’ve never considered being mean about any of those kinds of things, maybe I’m just strange.

Not strange, just good :)

Agreed 100%. Unfortunately the people who need to read this are not on Lemmy.

5-10% of people have diabetes. Globally, 6.3% of people have type 2 and in the US 11.6% of people have it (had no idea it was that many but I’m not surprised). Type 2 can be typically be managed by oral meds, diet, and exercise. In the US, 0.5% of people have type 1 and require insulin to live, globally that’s about 0.1%.

I don’t personally find most physical things that important, like a goddamn Pixar movie

Not totally sure where Pixar come into play here but a lot of people do find physical things important. People who have type 1 either care about it or they go blind, lose a foot, or die. They generally don’t go around talking to people about their diabetes.

As far as kids go, at least when I was growing up, they are fucking brutal. In 1st and 2nd grade I had a lazy eye which was corrected by glasses and an eye patch (not the cool pirate kind, it was a skin-colored sticker) and I got teased quite a bit. Insulin pumps didn’t exist back then, I would imagine little kids with insulin pumps today get teased at most schools. Pretty good chance a T1D Barbie will make a difference to a lot of those kids.

Time to disable automatic updates.

I can only imagine how hard that would be. I already feel awkward and insecure about the shit going on in my life that feels pretty benign by comparison.

I’m a cis man and I’ve experienced 2, 3, and 9

I’m guessing there aren’t a lot of people who would know that you have ADHD unless you tell them. Everyone walking behind me can tell I have T1D because my CGM and pump are clearly visible. People tend to identify with things that are so intertwined with their personal lives and that they are forced to spend so much time thinking about.

I don’t know wtf is going on anymore. There’s just so much.
