Pedometer ideas? I brought chocolates.
Oh, yeah *grins*... Chocolates! I thank you.💕 *snags the coconut-centered one*...
I think a pedometer anywhere in S3, no matter how minor, is a thematically positive thing... especially when you consider that the only thing they measure is distance traveled, not speed or anything else. They're not like a FitBit, giving you an anxiety disorder by tracking nine things at once. They just tell you how far you've walked or ran; the speed being not as important as the fact that you've kept moving.
"Did you teach the ostrich to run?"
and
Tumblr media
and
"Have you found the missing antichrist's name, address and shoe size yet?"
and
wiggling Shax's shoe while she's unconscious on the couch
and, of course...

Oh also I looked up smart watches for fitness purposes and it only comforted my decision Not to acquire a smartwatch
Half the functions listed make my skin crawl at the idea—texts and calls on my wrist? No thank you
I'm still considering a Fitbit or pedometer (sidebar: apparently research says Fitbits are often inaccurate?) leaning towards pedometer, but smartwatch is a big nope

need to start walking more often (bc i never walk like ever bc im a lazy bitch) and im starting today like rn but i have no idea how many steps itll be and i see everyone aiming for like 10K steps but that seems so daunting to me
but when i was overseas last year we had to walk HEAPS and my legs were so slim and strong they looked so good so i know that A). i can do it, and B). its totally worth it
have to redownload the health app so itll track my steps lmao. idk how accurate itll be but i dont have a smart watch or a fitbit or an oldfashioned pedometer so itll have to do
still doing omad today and hopefully whatever my mum makes for dinner isnt going to be too high bc i already have to overestimate the cals

God damn I have maybe gotten a little TOO into Pikmin Bloom. But also it's a more accurate pedometer than my fitbit.
Anyway, if anyone wants to come hunt mushrooms together, feel free to add me.

Shelltering Others
Chapter 4: Slow and Steady (Ch. 1, 2, 3)
After his date with Alya, Nino puzzles over Chat Noir's riddle. Can he figure it out? (This is a short one!)
Full chapter under the cut!
Fashion fans wear me.  
It had been just over half an hour since Nino’s dinner date with Alya. Already changed into a loose nightshirt, he was brushing his teeth as he thought about Chat Noir’s riddle. Though he’d told Alya about the mission Ladybug had assigned him during their date, he wasn’t able to give any specific details other than that, if he were to be successful, Nino would soon know Chat Noir’s identity. It was a pity, since Alya was so good at this type of thing, but Nino prided himself on solving mysteries and finding clues by himself. He could solve this riddle, no problem! 
But the first part of Chat’s Noir’s clue could represent anything, from kitten heels to berets to that ugly tie-thing Adrien’s father insisted on wearing. ‘Fashion’ was such a broad term that it didn’t do Nino much good to focus on that part of the hint, even if it was limited to Nino’s own wardrobe, as Chat said in his hint. And so Nino moved on to the next section of the riddle. 
Fitness fans use me.  
A barbell? But you can’t wear that. Maybe Chat Noir was talking about one of those weird-looking fanny packs, but those were never really in fashion (at least not that Nino knew of). A pedometer? Those could be worn, though Nino wasn’t sure someone knowledgeable, like Chloe, would ever consider them to be part of a fashionable wardrobe. Besides, even though Nino did have access to a fitbit, he hadn’t used it in years. 
As Nino finished his bedtime routine, he considered the rest of the riddle.  
Technology fans love me.  
Fitbits were innovative, but tech geeks like Max tended to go for things like the latest laptop, robot, or phone model. 
A mobile phone... Come to think of it, phones could be used to count steps too, like a pedometer would. That was fitness mixed with technology, right there! But phones couldn’t be worn, not really, so Nino gave up on that idea.  
Heading back into his bedroom, Nino took off his glasses, set them down, and crawled into bed. But he refused to give in to sleep just yet. He was so close to the answer, he could feel it! Maybe he already knew the answer in the back of his mind. It could be right there, waiting for Nino to wake up and put everything together. 
Nino didn’t want to wait until morning, though. He just needed to take a step back, stop getting distracted by thoughts of Alya in that cute dress she wore to the date, with the dim restaurant lights reflected in her eyes. No, stop getting distracted, not start! 
...But she had looked so beautiful, and it was rare that Alya and Nino had the opportunity to enjoy such a formal setting for their dates! They usually did something more casual, like going to the movies or the zoo, where they’d shared their first kiss, found out that they had so much in common, taken a chance on this relationship. Alya was Nino’s first real girlfriend, and if he was honest with himself, Nino hoped she would be his last, too. Maybe someday he’d take Alya to an even fancier restaurant or back to the zoo, and Alya could wear that adorable orange dress again, and Nino would get down on one knee and pull out a ring and— oh! 
You can’t wear a phone... but you can wear a ring! 
Suddenly shaken out of his daydreaming, Nino stared up at the dark ceiling above his bed in shock. An Alliance ring! That was the answer to Chat Noir’s riddle.  
Fashion fans wore them because they were advertised by Gabriel’s successful brand and came with Adrien’s digital likeness for extra appeal. Fitness fans used the rings to replace fitbits or phones for a more accurate tool to help with their exercise, and technology fans loved Alliance because it was such an innovative idea, from the reputable Tsurugi company, no less! Nino held his hand out in front of his face, touching the silver band he still wore. Just like Chat Noir hinted, Nino had one of the rings, too, so Nino had solved the riddle! 
But... why did Chat Noir not like the rings? Weren’t they helpful enough for him? With their help, the Resistance had been able to film Gabriel’s akumatization. What could possibly keep Chat Noir in the group of Alliance ring doubters? 
Nino frowned, twisting the ring around his finger. Nope, no ideas... unless, like Nino, Chat Noir didn’t like Gabriel! The man had attached his image to the rings, and regardless of how much Alliance helped in the fight against Monarch, being sponsored by such an awful dude would be enough to ruin the rings for almost anyone. If it weren’t for Adrien’s friendly face appearing, not someone else’s, when Nino turned on his ring, he might have hated Alliance, too. 
Feeling proud of himself for solving the mystery, Nino turned on his side and smiled into his pillow. Today had started off a little rocky, but two solid clues and another good date with Alya were helping Nino get back in his groove. Everything was working out perfectly!

Wearable Medical Devices: The Future of Healthcare is Here
Wearable medical devices are gadgets that can be worn on or implanted in the human body to track vital health metrics like heart rate, activity levels, sleep patterns and more. Powered by sensors, these devices collect biometric data that can provide health insights and help monitor chronic conditions. Some key examples of wearable medical devices include smartwatches, fitness trackers, patches and implants. As technologies advances, wearables are becoming smaller, more discreet and capable of monitoring more health indicators. Fitness and Activity Tracking One of the most popular applications of wearable technology is fitness and activity tracking. Devices like Fitbit, Apple Watch and Garmin fitness trackers feature accelerometers and heart rate sensors to track steps, calories burned, workouts and sleep patterns. This data helps users monitor their activity levels and motivate them to exercise more. Advanced models can also measure running dynamics, swimming metrics and provide guided workouts. The collected information is displayed through easy-to-read dashboards on companion mobile apps, giving insight into one's activity levels and progress over time. Vital Sign Monitoring Several wearables go beyond simple fitness tracking to monitor key vital signs like heart rate, ECG, blood oxygen levels and blood pressure. Devices like the Apple Watch, Fitbit Sense and Whoop strap feature optical heart rate sensors to continuously track heart rate during workouts and rest. More advanced models have FDA-cleared ECG apps that can detect atrial fibrillation. Newer entrants like the Qi collect 12-lead ECG data for diagnosis of heart conditions. Wearable Medical Devices are also being developed to non-invasively measure blood pressure and glucose levels through the skin. This vital data helps flag potential health issues for timely medical attention. Chronic Condition Management Wearables are playing a major role in managing chronic health conditions like diabetes, asthma, hypertension, etc. For example, continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) like Dexcom G6 warn of high and low blood sugar levels in real-time for Type 1 diabetics. Smart insulin pens and insulin pumps that integrate with CGMs help automate insulin delivery. Asthma monitors track symptoms, lung function and environmental triggers to help control the condition. Pedometers, activity trackers and digital medication reminders aid in managing other lifestyle-related illnesses. The collected health information is also shared with doctors and care coordinators for closer monitoring. Remote Patient Monitoring The connectivity features of wearables enable remote patient monitoring (RPM) which is transforming chronic care. Devices transmit biometric data like blood pressure, glucose levels, weight, symptoms and medication adherence wirelessly to doctors and care teams. This allows remote management of high-risk patients and early intervention when metrics go awry, reducing unnecessary hospital visits. During the Covid-19 pandemic, wearables played a pivotal role in remotely monitoring infected patients recuperating at home. Going forward, RPM solutions promise to lower healthcare costs while improving patient outcomes through proactive, personalized care.
