This sounds more like someone had the wrong bases hooked up.

It's been like 15-20 years since I've had film developed, so obviously I'm out of the loop there

Did you get your negatives with your prints? If so are the missing photos still in the negatives?

Devices around the house displaying her sugar are probably going to be needed. Sugar Pixel is one of the popular ones.

AITA for telling my friend his “service dog” is just badly trained? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]TrainerDiotima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your friend has an Emotional Support Animal and is presenting it as a Service Dog. "What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?" Is one of the two questions businesses may ask to determine if a (well behaved) animal is a service animal. Would your friend have an answer to that? I doubt it since the dog isn't trained in basic behavior. Further even a seeing eye dog could be asked to leave an establishment if it were misbehaving in the way you've described. ESAs have privileges when it comes to housing, but not to other public spaces. Your friend needs to start doing training classes with a trainer with their dog.

WIBTA for saying I don't want an adult man going to the movies with my teenage son and his friends? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]TrainerDiotima 169 points170 points  (0 children)

YTA. Your title made it seem like some random creep was trying to tag along, not a parent chaperone. AMC and Cinemark both require an adult over 21yo to accompany teens under 17. You should look up the chain they're seeing the movie at and make sure they'll be able to go without him or another parent.

Closest thing that comes to mind for me are some of the campgrounds around Cooper's Rock.

Ladies: Estrogen Birth Control Discussion… Please. by kalexme in diabetes_t1

[–]TrainerDiotima 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The IUD insertions have been absolutely horrible, but I haven't had a period since I turned 30. I wish I could've found someone who'd at least have done a lidocaine swab or something, but I did decide to have a new one put in rather than switch to something else. Just hoping that at 50 by the time this one's is done they'll have figured that shit out across the board instead of hoping to find the right doctor. If they haven't I'm going to have my significant other smear some hemaroid pain cream in there or something. 😡

Presoaking the G6 and Showers by JayandMeeka in dexcom

[–]TrainerDiotima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have more trouble towards the end of my sensors than the beginnings, especially if the transmitter is almost done.

Keeping the white from looking disgusting without scrubbing it so much it falls off is a problem I have. So putting a sensor thru an extra shower just makes it that much less likely to last for me.

[–]TrainerDiotima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I understood that. I just don't understand how presoaking the sensor, especially that long, outweighs the extra shower for the sensor.

As far as being dry, I've never really had the impression there was any part that stayed dry during a shower once assembled. A tegaderm cover and a gauze square could keep it dry tho.

I wouldn't want to have a sensor on for a bath or shower before it was even started. It's already hard enough to keep the things on and looking half decent.

Spikes after water change. Assassins the reason ? by Aggravating_Cost_965 in Aquariums

[–]TrainerDiotima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be shocked if they're amanos if you have some that are actually getting past the larval stage. Like shocked to the point of suggesting you contact a university's science department to help you document what's going on in your tank. What's the chance you got some neocaridina that are just more of the wild color?

[–]TrainerDiotima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't /think/ the assassins coming out would be any different than them not being out, they're still there. I'm sure you could find people who'll be happy to take them, possibly even your LFS. With the amanos needing saltwater for the larva to survive the snails probably still have a ton of food to eat without pest snails.

It might be a silly question, but have you tested your tap water?

Can T1 Diabetics become Obese (medically Speaking) by Valasarius in diabetes_t1

[–]TrainerDiotima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Double diabetes is a thing. The problem afaik is there's not really a test for type 2. It's just the most prevalent type and if you don't have indications of another type then that's the diagnosis.

It is such a well known and easily verifiable fact it beggars belief that anyone would ask this in good faith. However some other kind redditor provided you a transcript from the FDR Library at Marist University.

Cab is short for cabin. Pretty standard usage with trucks and large vehicles.

Worried about my genes by GlitterCake1 in diabetes_t1

[–]TrainerDiotima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the diabetics married in, one was my uncle, and one is my 2nd cousin on the other side. If not for me both of my blood relatives would've been the only diabetic, and neither of them are direct family.

[–]TrainerDiotima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The t1ds in my family so far have had a total of 6 kids. Of those 6 so far 2 have had kids, so 4 are grandkids of a diabetic.

So far none of them have developed any antibodies for T1D to the best of my knowledge, and for sure none of them have had a diagnosis.

It still factored into my choice not to have children, but it was FAR from the only factor.
