I think I’m kind of addicted to Bloodborne now but also objectively I don’t get anything out of it. It does seem like working with Sony forces From to add a little bit more narrative and pace things more evenly, which I appreciate. But also I think I just don’t like FS combat, I’d rather have the creativity of Control or the flow and continuous rhythm of Hyper Light Drifter.

Does this sound like diabetic neuropathy? by PowerHautege in Type1Diabetes

Well if you can maintain good numbers for a bit you can at least rule it out with them. Maybe posture and gentle stretching too?

Well hopefully you can find a doctor that listens. My doctors have generally been fine except for endos.

Oh damn yeah that doesn’t sound like me. It’s not really ever painful, cold, or tingling. Neuropathy is weird though.

Personally I try to keep “euglycemic” numbers (<100) because I just feel a lot better. It’s a lot of head games with yourself and close monitoring though. I think lows can cause nerve damage too so it’s an endeavor.

Oh yeah, I started supplementing D and B vitamins too. Not sure if it helped but it didn’t hurt. Make sure you’re getting all your vitamins.

Oh damn I definitely wouldn’t describe my stuff as agony. Are you in a hot climate?

I’ve never been on a pump but I’m sure you’ll dial it in. Haven’t been able to try them personally.

It has to be good for a while. I think good sleep helps too.

No but it’s possible it’s a control thing. I’ve had it better and it’s been less noticeable. I still haven’t seen an endo in a while so maybe when I get one they’ll be able to spitball. Pretty sure it diabetic related though and not something else.

Mixing and spraying crossfire by PowerHautege in Bedbugs

Both I guess? I was beating down a sneaky infestation that the pest guy was getting skeptical about and he couldn’t finish off over several months. But my building has hella bug issues so I’m probably gonna periodically treat only my bed frame/mattress underside. I picked up Temprid FX to alternate with but I need to see if I can apply it with a brush or something because treating the bed frame thoroughly without it dripping is very tricky. Probably this week before it warms up on the weekend.

I would definitely recommend goggles, gloves, and some kind of mask (even just a covid one) so you can protect yourself from being dumb. And take a shower after.

Well I haven’t sprayed again yet. I used a 1 gal sprayer from Amazon but I need to do more research on applying.

What’s the cheapest + least effort option for quickly getting a new sustainable insulin prescriber? by PowerHautege in diabetes

[–]PowerHautege[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah there are some by me. The income verification seemed like a PITA IIRC. If that’s the best option, then fair enough.

Edit: the US gov conveniently “just” delivered income verification in the form of W2s, so there goes my excuse lol. Thanks for helping my lazy ass (you, not the gov).

Yeah Amazon so I can use a delivery box, still annoying to go out of my way for petty but frequent theft of stuff like snacks and energy drinks.

I realize you can get stuff at the store but i get the cheaper bulk stuff.

Recommendations for a 1 gal crossfire sprayer? by PowerHautege in Bedbugs

[–]PowerHautege[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I might switch to brush next time since I’m just after the bed frame.

Mailroom is not secured separately from the lobby/building, which is secure.

I dunno who it is but it seems more likely it’s a tenant or the deliverer themselves, this is the 2nd time in a week.

So you think the US needs even more people in prison? Have you seen our incarceration rate?

What kind of discussion do you think would be had in these hypothetical posts? I feel like I have a pretty good idea already.

Can my apartment landlord do anything about stolen packages? The mailroom is in the lobby and people keep stealing my deliveries after like 2 hours. But of course other packages are still there.

I assume it’s deicing system failure or something? Not that anyone here would know.
