Last piece of news for you all. Since so many people are interested in romances I’ll confirm a few things for you. * There’s 8 romances. * Only 2 of those have any racial preferences (for story reasons) – Cameron Lee

LOOK AT IT

8 ROMANCES

LOOK AT ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

So yeah. There will be at least one Inquisitor run that exists solely to make information for lady Inquisitor/Cassandra fic.

It’s not like I don’t have experience doing that with Mass Effect already. ::looks at Ash and Jack and Miranda::

Still really hoping for Vivienne to be bi.

It’s nice that BioWare is being upfront about the fact that Dorian Pavus is a man of color.

They still whitewashed Sera after she was presented in her character design and other artwork as a woman of color. The outcry of dudebros over not being able to romance her with a male Inquisitor is partly because their only other are options are two black women (Vivienne and Scribe Girl, if Scribe Girl is a romance) and another woman of color.

So no, they don’t really deserve cookies for doing what they ought in one area while backsliding in others. A lot more areas than I’ve mentioned here.

Read an article on type 1 diabetes and weight issues (because that can be a struggle with insulin) and it mentioned symlin. And why the use of it to help lower the needed insulin dose hasn’t quite caught on among type 1 patients. The article mentioned that type 1’s might be reluctant to add yet another shot to their daily regime of shots, pen injections, or pump boluses. It also mentioned that having to re-juggle mealtime insulin dose calculations  might also be an issue.

What it failed to mention is that some type 1s might be put off by the side-effects and thus decide it is not for them. My endo before my current endo tried me on it for a bit. One of the side effects is nausea. Having nausea at every single meal you give a symlin injection before is really not fun. Especially if you are expected to go places and do things that vomiting might really interrupt.

The nausea was really bad for me. Symlin can also cause dizziness. Which I might have had, too, but I also have Meniere’s disease, so if it did make me dizzy, I probably attributed it to the Meniere’s.

To celebrate my 168th follower –

To appease the many folk who say they want one –

And just because I’ve been threatening to do so –

I’m having a giveaway!

The winner will get a CUSTOM MADE Meshuggie-style amigurumi (knitted plushie) of their choice*. I’d be happy to remake any of the characters pictured above, or any other comic book/live action character. OCs, too!

[*The only limitation is that the character be more or less human (as you see above, I can handle Nightcrawler and Douglock just fine, but, say, anthropomorphic animals or robots might be tough). Also – no MAJOR gore. And no porn, please. Hawkguy up there notwithstanding.]
