thekilljoys replied to your post: I wanna go see Harry Potter again.

you can go with me sometime probably. i still haven’t seen it.

What?! WE ARE GOING. I don't know when, but we are.

When can you/do you want to go?

hmm... I guess that the opportunity to be able to work in what I love, which is acting, in something that could make me... be known .__. idk, there's too much things but if I could have that I maybe could have the rest asnjfdshbfjsdf

ah yeah well, it’s your body, it’s something that would be on you for the rest of your life so if you end up deciding that “diabetic” is the most fitting word, then do it anyway because if you like it that’s all that matters (since it’s your tattoo).

Try telling that to my ma, she's paying for it. (if I do it. Or my dad lets me)

personal rant: i know the new term is person with diabetes, and then people get mad when i say i’m diabetic, isn’t the point of saying the pwd to make it accepting, if i accept diabetic then i should be allowed that, but i digress

I totally and completely agree. I just think it is what it is. And I feel like whoever came up with PWD probably wasn't diabetic.

And anyway, diabetic is just shorter and easier, political correctness be damned.

Besides. I went to this thing for kids with diabetes this week, and almost every single one of them referred to themselves and everyone else as "diabetic." I see no problem.

Yeah. Here endeth my long, pointless rant.

why can’t you use diabetic?

YEAH WHY NOT? is it like when we were discussing semantics at barnes & noble? “you’re not diabetic, you have diabetes?” that thing?

According to my mother, it sort of "defines" and confines you to being "diabetic"  when you say diabetic, rather than a person with diabetes. Where I get that kinda, I've tried to explain to her that, because diabetes has been such a big part of my life, I don't really think it matters. I mean, I'm not defined by it, it doesn't control me. I see nothing wrong with being a diabetic. It's just a word. It's not a title. It's what I am. 

I don't know if that makes any sense AT.ALL. But, it's sort of the basic gist.

OH OKAY. I’LL TRY TO THINK OF STUFF! I WAS GOING TO SUGGEST SOMETHING REALLY COOL AND DIABETIC LIKE THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE OF INSULIN OR SOMETHING BUT NOBODY WOULD KNOW WHAT IT WAS… MB IF IT HAD “DIABETIC” OR SOMETHING WITH IT TOO? IDK. (CAPS.)

aw yay, thanks! and i'm not allowed to use the word "diabetic" according to my mom. wompwomp.

I DON’T KNOW WHAT THAT IS BUT I WANT TO HELP

Basically, it's a tattoo saying "i have diabetes, bro." in case i pass out or something. it'd be on my wrist where they check for a pulse. some are huuuuge. if i get one, i don't want mine to be.
