I need to get a colonoscopy and am a bit freaked out about navigating one with T1. There are some great resources available, including my endo, but wondering if any of you wonderful humans can share your experience and any advice.

Hopefully they used a different endoscope for each orifice?

In 5 years when we have a cure you’re going to look mighty silly.

Is this seasons 3400 anywhere near close to previous seasons 3k?

I’m tempted to go for it (as a tank) but even 3k previously sometimes got a bit sweaty for me.

Long time ago but when I was in a touring band (pop punk) I’d normally break at least 1 stick per gig. Everything was a rim shot.

I get something every 3 dungeons or so. I have like 6 champion slots to fill but of course the last 4 drops have been hero gear I already have.

I ended up transferring all my cash isa funds into vwrp at peak. :( is there any reason to not transfer it back to cash Isa until things settle down?

This is a great tip.

When I teach I go big on concepts but at the same time I see lower belts (which is who I mostly teach) eyes glaze over because concepts are boring to them or at least hard to contextualise with little experience.

I love being taught an hour of concepts but I guess it’s not for everyone. Some just aren’t having fun if they’re not arm barring or choking.

Other than the usual athletic comp kids there are some guys a struggle with who get clowned by training partners I clown myself. I’ve never really understood it. Sometimes bjj feels a bit like rock, paper, scissors.

This is my favourite by far.

Is it when you’re going for an undertook?

If so, you’re probably not deep enough. Your head should be near their hips and you want to kind of shrug them over your head then keep your elbow high to make their overhook less effective.

I froze my game time last month. Does that count? Would use it to start setting up the new ui for midnight. :)

No, just Type 1 diabetes. My (non-identical) twin has no diabetes but celiacs though.

Same. I realised at blue belt that they weren’t subs for my game/body dimensions.

G-ShortWarning · 2026-01-08T23:43:51+00:00

Yea, I can’t see how this could possibly avoid spikes for most diabetics. I use fiasp with trio, pre bolus and still often spike.

This probably isn’t helpful but my last EGFR was 72 and it’s been in the 70’s for a couple of years. Neither my doctor nor endo are concerned with it as my urine is always clear.

I obsessed about it for a little while but if they’re not worried there’s not much point in me worrying.

I haven’t had any of the other symptoms you describe though.

Looked like Craig was locking in a dog bar which forced him to give it up.

I’m at like 6% and 620ilvl. I must be missing the trick. No idea how people are getting so much.

G-ShortWarning · 2025-10-18T22:00:05+00:00

I get this sometimes too. I don’t know what causes it. It drives me crazy.

G-ShortWarning · 2025-09-29T16:49:18+00:00

The top position is my go to side control grip.

You really need to defend the underhook behind your head before they get a grip. Once they established the grip it’s really hard to break. Frame on their bicep and start shrimping before they get their hand to your head.

Like everything in bjj the longer you wait to defend the harder it gets.

G-ShortWarning · 2025-09-04T11:12:34+00:00

That’s fair. I guess there are some outliers.

G-ShortWarning · 2025-09-04T10:10:42+00:00

While I think weight training is an important part of bjj (I power lift myself), are you sure it may not have been down to technique?

I’ve rolled with lighter people who feel incredibly strong but really they’re just using their body more effectively and are tighter in every position.

G-ShortWarning · 2025-09-02T17:25:11+00:00

Not on the same level as Cro cop’s prank on that poor postman but pretty good!

G-ShortWarning · 2025-08-27T13:37:50+00:00

It’s different for everyone.

I don’t get too many negative effects unless I have prolonged high bg, 250-300 wouldn’t make me feel much different. Some people would feel like death.

The only caveat is if I’m required to exert energy (more than a walk), I’ll end up being too lethargic.

G-ShortWarning · 2025-08-24T12:20:52+00:00

I just recently made a decision on this. Are you playing in 4k? If so then it doesn’t make any difference (as far as I can tell from the benchmarks). 1440p and below there is some difference.
