idk who needs to hear this but diabetics can have sugar. they can have as much sugar as they want as long as they take the appropriate amount of insulin. the only reason diabetics are ever told to lower their sugar intake is to reduce the amount of insulin they use. and almost every sugar free alternative sweetener is either a literal carcinogen or insanely expensive. not to mention the fact that sugar is naturally occurring in every. single. thing. you. eat.

me: hey maybe we should change the correction factor on my pump. because when I bolus for the correct amount of carbs that I am eating my blood sugar drops off the face of the planet. and so every time I eat I have to severely underestimate the number of carbs I'm eating so I don't go low like 5 times a day.
my endo: well according to your numbers you're not actually going low that often. so I think it's fine.
me: i just told you im intentionally lying to my pump so that I don't but okay
my endo: also it says here that you never eat more than like 10-15 grams of carbs at a time. you're supposed to be eating more than that.
me: did you like. hear me 2 seconds ago when I told you that I'm eating more than that and intentionally lying to my pump. so I don't go low.
my endo: why would you intentionally enter the incorrect number of carbs that's dangerous stop. just enter the correct number into your pump because you haven't been going low.

my endo: hey why are you dropping severely low multiple times almost every single day.
me: because my correction factor is way too high. I told you this last time.
my endo: hmmmm I don't think it's your correction factor actually I think it's your basal rate. cut it back by like 60%.
[3 months later]
my endo: why are you literally constantly either running high or going severely low this is insane you clearly haven't been doing what I tell you
I'm going to start beating people with rocks

Had a hell of a time in the haligtree recently. My summon fell off the tree but an invader still showed up. They were absolutely nailing me with a bow and arrow, and I managed to run to the first grace, where I frantically summoned another player and encountered a legend, and had to text my friend about it.
10/10, would follow as my brother, my captain, and my king. haven’t seen him since but I hope he’s doing well.

Redesigning the first Elden Ring oc I made
He saw Godrick's fucked up-ness and thought "I can do that" except in Caelid. So now he fucks up the Kindreds of Rot. He's a nice guy even if he's a little weird about it.
