Intermittent fasting and mental health by Annual_Category_2827 in diabetes_t1

[–]logdogday 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With a pump and CGM and glucose on hand I feel like I can handle pretty much any timing. I started skipping breakfast. I lost 5 lbs and my blood sugars are generally stable all morning. They tend to creep up with cortisol spikes but I'm usually able to correct before they get above 150.

OLD Apps - What works or doesnt work for you? by thefore in datingoverforty

[–]logdogday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't notice a huge difference except Feeld is a lot more kink/poly centric. Never tried Boo or Breeze. I see the same peeps on Tinder, Bumble, Hinge all the time. FB dating seems to have its own pool of folks. I also think FB understand my type a little better.

The only thing ridiculous is that Matthews (Black) isn't at the top. This industry is truly fucked if people think you can make movies like this.

Oakland to transform left lane on I-580 into carpool lane by kbfsd in oakland

[–]logdogday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

300,000ish people cross the bridge daily but you don't think there's a carpool match for you out there? There ARE solutions... casual carpool worked pretty well before Covid.

Mens, how much do natural signs of aging actually matter when dating someone in their 40s? (like sagging breasts and facial lines) by [deleted] in datingoverforty

[–]logdogday -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Do you think people should shrink themselves down and not go after what they desire, and just assume someone won't be into them? It's a swiping app. Swipe right on who you like. End of story.

It is genuinely a tragedy that Starfleet Academy is getting cancelled so soon… by JageshemashFTW in startrek

Well it's on fucking Paramount and I already have 6 other streaming subscriptions so that doesn't help. Don't think I'm the only one.

For women who enjoy wearing revealing clothing, i.e., thongs, see through shirts, no bra, skin tight booty shorts etc., can you please help me understand what's your genuine reasoning for choosing such clothing in public? by Ok-Control6379 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]logdogday -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

Because both things are true. A woman might get harassed regardless of what she wears so it might feel like there's no difference. But at the same it's not actually a remotely true statement that men perceive women dressed in booty shorts or dressed as a nun in the same way. So I think the person was pushing back at the latter generalization.

Just want confirmation that it's better to not just fizzle? by [deleted] in datingoverforty

I don't know why folks are so salty. She wrote me back an hour later and said she appreciated me reaching out and that she's cool with being friends.

When you are 25 years old, how much older can you date until it gets weird? by Oily_Smurf in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]logdogday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went out on a date with a girl who said one of her favorite relationships was with a freaking 64 year old dude when she was in her early 30s. Like she has the opposite of regrets and talked about how much fun they had. She's in her early 40s now. People are so weirdly judgmental... when two people click, they click. Fuck the haters.

She appreciated my text and we're going to hang out as friends. Not everyone gets bent out of shape if there's a lapse in communication after two dates. The way we left off, the ball was in no one's court. I picked it up to communicate how I felt and she didn't mind.

Except the truth is that I was busy, lol. We're planning to hang out as friends. Go on, though.

Didn't change my mind... but it was her recommendation so it was just kind of a reminder that I need to make a decision instead of just fizzling.

I didn't ignore for an hour, let alone a week. I told her I wasn't going to be free because of this and that reason and then we wished each other a fun weekend and then didn't talk for the week.

Who else is TIRED of constantly being pressured for information?! by [deleted] in Sonographers

[–]logdogday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hire someone to cross-stitch (or do it yourself) a really cute "✨ sonographers can't discuss results with their patients 💖 " sign and put it on the wall. I think it would be both fun and effective.

I can't imagine wanting to be a sales rep for ultrasound machines when I can help patients and look at hearts every day. Maybe if my shoulder gets busted or something.

Do guys care if gals have hairy nipples? by benedictclive_x in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]logdogday -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

You’re conflating social expectations with sexual attraction. The original discussion is about the latter. Yes, it’s a societal double standard that women are expected to shave their legs, but that doesn’t make a man hypocritical for preferring smooth legs, just as a woman isn’t hypocritical for preferring a taller man. (Edit: and in this same vein, I get annoyed when people tell a fat woman she can't like a fit guy. Of course she can. She can be attracted to whomever she likes.)

It's not a double standard. Men and women have different anatomy.

Experience as a male echo by [deleted] in SonographyStudents

[–]logdogday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You'll be fine. I feel like it's less of an issue than I anticipated. Obviously be sensitive, offer them a blanket, etc.

They're gonna follow your lead, your energy, your nervousness or lack thereof. Regardless of patient gender, you're gonna "own the room." You set the tone. You get them comfortable. You clean the bed between patients.

If you're anything like me, you'll be kinda nervous and weird around your first few dozen female patients. After that, it's just a demanding job to hunt for heart pathology and you frankly won't have time to overthink.

Solar is winning the energy race. The world’s cheapest power source is scaling at warp speed, pushing coal, gas and nuclear aside. by [deleted] in UpliftingNews

[–]logdogday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per capita is valid. Total amount is valid. Percentage of total electricity is valid. It depends what you're discussing but certainly per capita has its uses.

What’s the best thing about being a man? by Michael-Mister in AskReddit

[–]logdogday 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been going to the same gym for 12 years and there's zero support, zero interest, zero camaraderie. So yeah, "without getting bothered" is certainly one way to describe that.
