I’m in highschool and because of the phone ban in my state it’s not easy for me to just be able to pull my phone out in the middle of class to check my bloodsugar, and I want to avoid confrontation as much as possible. Leaving class to get something to drink or eat when my bloodsugar is low is annoying, too, but I can’t fit all of my things in some tiny little pencil pouch. Anyone else in school have any advice on managing/monitoring your bloodsugar during the day?

I’m looking for names for my baby. Our last name is Reyes, so I want to find first names that flow well with it and also (possibly) fit with the origin of it? It is commonly found in Spanish speaking cultures. They can be American names too though since my baby is Filipino American! I haven’t been able to come up with many on my own, but here are some that I like.

- Alex/Alexander
- Miles (let me know if this sounds weird with Reyes..)
- Caelum
- Aaron
- Dakota
- Rhys
- Sawyer
- Ryder
- Declan
- Devon
- Damon

Hi. This isn’t really an urgent issue, but I haven’t been able to solve this problem. I’ve looked online and can’t figure it out.

Basically, the blue arrow in the corner of my desktop icons annoys me. I’m sure I’m not the only one. So, I try to remove it. No big deal.

So I download this application for my register that is supposed to remove the arrow, and it does, but it replaces it with a piece of white paper with a folded corner because the icon is removed. Now I’m even more annoyed. I don’t want the blue arrow there, nor do I want the white paper.

Like I said, not a huge deal, just trying to make my desktop look more cleaned up and neat. If anyone knows how to fix this or has had the same issue I’d appreciate any advice.

I’m looking for modern Filipino-American boy names, ones that sound nice with the last name “Reyes”. They can have any meaning, but preferably not Christian meanings. Just looking for ideas, so I don’t really have a theme. Something masculine and strong, but some gender neutral names that are more masculine leaning are okay, like Kyler for example.

I’m a new guitarist. I am having issues with my posture and holding my guitar right. I sit it on my lap and rest my right forearm on it and play with my left hand, but I always end up hunching over to see the frets or my wrist starts to hurt. I also hold my pick weird and it moves around between my fingers when I play so the song eventually starts sounding weird/muted. The chords for the song I’m playing are: Cadd9, G6/A, Em9, and Dsus2/G. I have all three of my fingers in a row and it’s hard for me to press down and get clear good sound, or I’m accidentally muting other strings. Does anyone have any advice on how I can fix my posture & the way I play?

Hi. I’m sorry for the depressing title. I just need support from other people with diabetes, because no one else that I know is going through the same struggles.

I’ve had T1D for a decade. I’m a teenager and I feel so alone amongst my normal peers. Some of them treat me poorly because of my medical condition. When my Tandem Mobi insulin pump vibrates, it’s very loud, and people can hear it during class. People will make comments saying that it’s something inappropriate and it’s so embarrassing I want to cry.

I wish that I could be anyone else and I’d give anything to just not have to do it anymore. I’m never going to be able to live a normal life. I’ll have to wear monitors all of the time, I’m scared I won’t wake up in the night when I go off to college and my blood sugar gets low, and I will always have to constantly check my carbs.

I’ve given up on taking care of myself. I have PDD and I think it’s made it worse because I overeat and I don’t care about my health. I used to be so skinny and now I feel disgusted when I look at myself in the mirror. My monitors come off all of the time, or I’m puking once every month because I get high since my insulin cannula didn’t go in right, and all I can do is just cry. I can’t do anything but cry. There’s nothing I can do to fix myself. I feel broken. My blood sugar is either super high or super low and I just feel awful and sick all of the time, and it’s all my fault.

And I know I’m probably blowing it out of proportion, but I’ve had to deal with feeling like this for so long that it feels like it’s my daily life even if I do feel okay sometimes. I’m so fat now that I can’t even walk around when it’s hot out without being overheated or sweaty or exhausted. I regret letting myself be this way and I wish I could take it all back. I’m worried I can’t fix it now. I just wish I was normal. I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. I want it all to be over.

Hi! I’m a new furry artist and I do traditional art. If I want to start selling adoptables, will I need to learn digital? How do I start selling them at all? I’ve never sold my art before, so any help would be appreciated

Hi. Not sure if this is the right subreddit to post in, but r/furry didn’t allow me to post since I don’t have 100+ karma in their subreddit. For anyone who can provide advice, how do I start selling adopts? I don’t really know how to do digital art. I just do traditional art. I really want to start earning money to buy a fursuit. Thanks in advance
