Could you guys just... die? We can't afford to pretend to care anymore. The shareholders demand more blood!

Funny, if I stop giving insulin I die in ~48 hours.

As a pancreatic surgeon he is very well aware of that.

Reminds me of the new South Park special.

  • If you're rich, you get insulin
  • If you're poor, you get cooking classes

But then turn it on it’s head so the insulin cocktails (and they should make them insulin martinis/spritzes/negronis/etc in the show) use (behind the bar) the most sketchy, shit-quality insulin possible, and the cooking classes are top-tier CIA (not the intelligence org) ones

It should be understood by everyone that they don’t care at all and are laughing in our faces

T1D here. I don't have context but knowing nutrition-fu and having skills to make it tasty is not a bad place to be. Just saying

Would you trade insulin for "nutrition-fu"?

[-] tasankovasara@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 days ago

Not if I have the choice, of course. But if I had to, I could follow the ways of my wife, she's been on ketogenic diet (no carbohydrates) for five years by choice. I wouldn't need insulin if I did the same. This is what I mean - knowledge is power.

Yeah, please don't try that.

We will have gas chambers soon. Those fix everything. In other news Charlotte is being renamed Neo Nuremberg. Both are race towns.
