You've probably noticed the skirmishes with #inkjet #printer makers, who can only force you to buy their ink at 20,000% markups if they can stop you from deciding how your printer is configured:

I’m beyond excited for this decal sticker, for my #InsulinPump #T1Diabetic #MTFBWY

Dipping down under 3.8mmol/L. My pump is having conniptions and so is my heart. I am sweary because I have to get out of bed and eat. I hate late night #hypo events #diabetes #T1D #insulinPump

Big HELLO 👋🏽 to fellow #T1Diabetics… How’s your day been? I’ve been on this ‘roller-coaster’ ride for over 43 years. Today, REALLY scared me, I have No #HypoAwareness & if it wasn’t for #CGM & #InsulinPump screaming at me,I may have dropped lower than 3.1mmol 😲

@cbecker i like the name of your book! I look forward to it! I hope many folks read it- including the makers of my #t1d equipment. I'm so tired of all the wrappers and waste from each #insulinpump infusion kit, #cgm sensor, etc. Is this asking too much? Maybe, but I hope with teachers like you, "normal" will get better!
