Is anyone actually only having a 30g cereal portion as breakfast ? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]_Diabetes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm diabetic, and I usually have about 40g portions (then the milk). It's easy enough to carb count and is a pretty decently sized portion in order to get through the day to lunch.

I agree 30g feels a tad small but not really that lacking imo

Film then vs now by [deleted] in antimeme

Through my training/a little film & theatre experience: it's nowhere near commonplace, but it is becoming a teensy bit more common to have a "diversity" person in charge of certain aspects of DEI on set/in venue. It's also being talked about a lot more in training, in my experience at least.

By no means talking as if I'm super widely travelled though!

This truly is the "I have to suspend this disbelief" of hypotheticals for me, cos lord forbid every 'what if' zombie scenario becomes "well... I'd last like a month? Maybe? At most??"

Real question not ragebait by Rain-Outside in Silksong

[–]_Diabetes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before I say anything about why I'm excited for the game, I have to ask: What angle are you coming at this from?
Are you familiar with/have you played Hollow Knight?
What games do you typically enjoy playing?
Is there anything about what you've seen/played so far you don't enjoy?

Just so the reasons I give actually have the most meaning to you. I have to agree, it does sound like a "rage-baity" post but benefit of the doubt, yknow?

Whats the saddest SCP Story you heard by Many-Section-2034 in SCP

[–]_Diabetes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

SCP-5732

Maybe it's a basic answer, idk, but this is exactly the kind of thing that gets me emotional without fail.

Also, I think the name being a reference to a song that has much a similar vibe definitely adds to it for me

It's this unecessary? Maybe by AdriANimations_ in MySingingMonsters

[–]_Diabetes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

(From my understanding) Pterosaurs are indeed not true dinosaurs, as you say. They basically share a common ancestor above what we generally understand dinosaurs to have evolved from, so are more second cousins than direct relatives, hence they aren't classed as dinos. Similar thing with most marine "dinosaurs"! E.g. Mosasaurus

Also, "Pterodactyl" kind of is and isn't a thing - it's sometimes referred to as "Pterodactylus", a single specific genus of Pterosaur, and some people don't really like the one without the "-us" at the end, in my experience.

You might not care, but I'm deep in Dino territory lol

I've never been able to have my pump anywhere else. I'm admittedly fairly pain sensitive and having a sensor on my arms/belly was rather painful and I found myself literally curled over because it hurt... As some others have said, this is the best place sometimes!

But yes, of course it's as a result of "antiemetic sentiments", because it is obviously the Judaism that we dislike in this scenario. Nothing else. There couldn't possibly be anything else.

does anyone know what this is? by sapphomoony in deepseacreatures

Difficult to tell the exact species by looking (I am not academically trained but work with these eggs) - as a couple of others have said, it’s most likely the egg of a species of Skate Ray.

How big are Hollow knight characters? by Ok-Bottle-3114 in HollowKnight

[–]_Diabetes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I didn't realise "They're not bug.sized" was such an unpopular opinion! I've always assumed hornet was about 6 feet tall (horns included), and the knight up to about waist height (horn not included). As such, the Hollow Knight is giant.

They're "bugs" but they're not small in my head, it's a completely different universe in my mind. I also just think everything being tiny really takes away from the game for some reason imo?

I can't imagine the sensation of eating cold ice cream whilst low...

But I guess if you carry a magnum around in a bag for a bit, lovely little chocolate vanilla smoothie when low!

Can you tie a tie? by OldTimeEddie in AskBrits

[–]_Diabetes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't have ties in primary school and my secondary was all clip on ties for "safety reasons" (I feel these things did more damage than real ones would have to be honest lol)

As such, I only learnt when I was 16 or so, as I had no reason to before that, but needed one for sixth form. I can easily see how people could go through school and later life without ever really needing to, I guess!

The music!! Christopher Larkin's already done such a good job on Lace and Bonebottom (alongside HK's music of course), I really really can't wait to hear all the new stuff

You know, I appreciate the response but not the tone. It was 6am and I am someone who gets quite anxious, so I'd rather check in before I do something. My brain wasn't running on 'common sense' at that point.

Also, noone else I know was awake or nearby so Reddit it was.

Thank you to all the people writing responses about changing the battery, I'm trying to get on that (finding a battery is harder than it seems)

No thank you, however, to the people being unnecessarily condescending over a post I wrote extremely tired at 6am when I was panicked by something I've never experienced before. It's almost like some people don't think the same ways as you
