My name is Justice, I am 18 years old and male. I am from KC Missouri, in the US. I'm poetic, curious, and loving. I prefer Linux but the world wants windows. I footbag, perform slam poetry, and do robotics. I've got a pretty eclectic music taste and love everything from pop-punk music to classical music like Bach and Tchaikovsky (I think I spelled that right?) I'm currently in high school but i'm going to college for mechanical engineering in the fall. Outside of the US I've only ever visited the Czech Republic (Hradec Kralove) and loved the experience.

I'm so excited to explore these forums, thank you for the resource!

Hi. I am a 75 year old male. I have been type 2 for about 30 years which l have managed reasonably well. Unfortunately the past few years it's been a struggle. I have now been put on insulin. I have only been on insulin for 2 weeks and my A1c is slowly coming down. This morning l am on 8.0. Next week l am being given mounjaro to assist me further. My current weight is around 176lbs. To answer some of the questions. I am not religious. I love outdoor life, and traveling. I have been to many counties around Europe. The States, Canada, Turkey Tunisia and each of the British countries. My main hobby is now fishing. I love being on the beach fishing and relaxing. I can't remember any other of the questions so l guess this will have to do. I look forward to reading through your replies to questions posted and hopefully answer 1 or 2 myself
