Honestly, I’m frustrated.

I’ve been part of a subreddit community that I thought was meant for people like me, navigating life, health issues, and everything in between. I posted something personal and real, hoping to connect with others who might relate or even offer some encouragement.

Instead, the mods removed the post, didn’t explain what rule I broke, and then permanently banned me. When I asked for clarification, they couldn’t point to a single rule I violated. Their responses were cold and dismissive, no empathy at all.

I wasn’t trying to promote anything or ask for money. I just wanted to share my story and show that I’m trying to turn a tough situation into something positive. I

I’ve been in this subreddit since my diagnosis, and I just wanted to share something personal.

I’ve lived with type 1 diabetes for most of my life. A few years ago, it caught up with me — and I lost my kidneys. Dialysis has been the hardest chapter of my life — physically and mentally. Some days I honestly don’t know how I keep going. But recently, I started building something that’s helped me hold on: a clothing brand called Saint Maré.

It’s not just about clothes. It’s about resilience. It’s about showing the world that we’re still standing, still here, still strong — even if no one sees what we go through.

I don’t have investors or big backing. Just a story, a name, and a belief that m

I tried to help my wife carry groceries into the house—nothing major, just over 10 pounds. But that small act caused my fistula to start bleeding out.

I had a bandage still on from dialysis yesterday, which I usually take off after about 20 hours. But as soon as I lifted the bag, I felt the pressure shift and blood started pouring out. It got all over the place. I managed to press a new bandage on it in time to stop it, but it really shook me up.

Lesson learned: I can’t lift anything heavy anymore. No matter how much I want to help or feel “normal,” I have to respect the limits that come with this condition. Still, it’s tough accepting that.

Just needed to get this off my chest.

Hey guys!

I just started using Canva Pro today and I have a heck of a lot to learn but loving it so far.

I’ve searched and having a hard time finding the best answer.

When I create an email signature template, how can I crop out the extra white or black area around the page? I’ve edited the size but I don’t see how to eliminate all of the extra space on the background. If the background is black and I remove the background completely, it still has a lot of empty space around my signature.

I hope that makes sense and I would really appreciate your help.

Best wishes 👍

Hey folks, I hope you all are doing well in this beautiful weather.

I’ve been here for 17 years and I’ve recently fell ill and can’t do my corporate sales job anymore. So I’m going to open up my business and register for my LDA Unipessoal.

First, I’ll need to register my LDA business on Empresa na Hora for 360€.

I’m just curious how you went about getting your business bank account. I’ve read horror stories about Millennium. I’m currently with Montepio for my personal account and we’re bonded to them for a mortgage and auto loan. Not interested in keeping them for a business account.

So far I’m looking at Revolut or ActivoBank. Are these good options?

Also I’m going to need an accou
