    Disclaimer: I’m in my early 20s and have had 1 relationship that ended last year, lasting about 2 or 3 years and she was the one who asked me out

    100% agree, I feel like you could make a case for fishing out red flags like if your partner will respect you on a first date or more extreme cases safety (feel like that’s cause for no second date tho) like maybe yeah. But tests, no. Bigger no if it’s in an established relationship as it shows there’s a huge amount of distrust

    I am super burnt out rn from my day so I hope there’s a coherent thought in there somewhere

    Hi type 1 diabetic here, yeah the other person pretty much said it all, but yeah blood sugar go can both hypo and hyper as diabetics basically have no means for regulating blood sugar. For me my blood sugar tends to run high either cus of my anxiety of going low or miscounting carbs (thank god for my sensor that automatically gives insulin). However if I’m feeling stressed or I’m working for 3 hours without a snack my blood sugar drops

    Bonus fact: insulin acts like a key for the glucose in the blood to get to cells, so without insulin glucose accumulates in the blood, but it also helps your blood sugar from going low. Treatment should happen at 80, low is considered 60 or 70 and below, while high starts at 180 to 200. At around 500 or 600 most meters will stop reading specific numbers and just want you to get insulin in your body

    My grandpa who takes me shooting was going over the firearm safety rules and with rule two I was like “that seems extreme” and his response it’s supposed to be, a gun killing or injuring or damaging isn’t as vivid as the word destroy

    And yeah for me the other rules kinda seemed a given, bullets move fast and possibly through our hanging rubber targets, the gun probably can’t fire if you don’t give it a squeeze, and as for loaded better safe than sorry.

    These rules seemed almost obvious to me, and yet there’s all these guys at the range behaving like absolute idiots

    i usually browse by all and have sometimes accidentally have commented on the women’s stuff comm. The first time I did it they left my comment up (I didn’t know it was exclusively a women’s comm I thought it was a focus on women) but gave me a friendly reminder that it is womens stuff. Anyways I’ve also almsot commented in that comm a few times and only noticed it after reading comments

    ANYWAYS that was longer than I anticipated but all I can excuse is accidentally commenting, the actual behavior is not especially since they said it they knew it was a women only community. IMO that’s not ok since I’m sure of what OOP was doing was allowed or “as a man…” was allowed, 90% of the comm would be men effectively destroying the women only space

    I don’t want to nitpick (this is a lie) but don’t you need multiple canons firing for a salvo? I remember seeing some history doodad where war ships would fire cus seeing a line of splashes from the canons is easier to find than a single splash, plush when it does connect its a bunch of damage at once making damage control hard

    Now of course I’m sure your strategy would have to change firing noodles but I’m not paid enough for that
