I need to trim my nails so frequently that I sometimes wonder if I might be a werewolf.

Who does?
I never have to trim my fingernails. I pick them when I'm nervous. Luckily, they look like I trim them. My sister picks her nails but hers look bad.
mine always break 
The cold slightly acid water in which I usually work makes them so brittle that they shatter like glass.
But with Corona I keep them very short anyway now, to minimize the infection risk. Long nails offer a lot of space for viruses to hide safely where the soap can't get them.

Apparently I’m diabetic.
Type 1 or Type 2? I've been Type 2 for over 10 years.
Type 2. Had to give up Coke.
^from the pov of a biologist that's a mistake. Viruses and bacteria love beards of all sorts: a warm hiding place close to the entrance to the prey's insides.
I'd not let the goatee grow so far that it peeps out from under the mask.
random fact about myself: I don't wear a beard

Or just wear a snood, that's what I do: nose, mouth, cheeks and neck all covered and no need to do the unthinkable and sacrifice a poor beard, who hasn't done a thing to anyone.
I don't know how you do that. Occasionally if I have a burr or nail tear with no file nearby, I will attempt to "even it out" using my teeth. Can never get it feeling smooth. I really don't enjoy the process of clipping nails but I don't mind the buffing part. I've got this really nicely designed Tweezer Man nail file in a triangular shape. It does an excellent job. Makes the task so much easier, and nails feel great afterwards.
I don't know either. I guess I'm not really aware enough to stop picking them but also aware enough to stop before they start looking bad. Never chewed them though.
Well there is the "pick & tear," where you peel off a piece of the nail, but the tearing almost always widens as you go... which can reach the quick & cause pain. That is, unless you bite it off before then. OK... this is getting weird. 
Incidentally, I discovered the Tweezerman nail file I've got has been discontinued for some time (photo). Mine is like 12 years old, still in great shape. Seems like designers moved onto frosted glass & other materials.

having a rough edge on a nail drives me crazy. I discovered that - what do you call them? - the white borders between tiles serve perfectly as a nail file substitute.
I am sick of American politics. Shall be glad when this election is over - whenever that is. I do feel sorry for my American friends, as they deserve the right to vote - whoever they choose. I'm gonna try and ignore it in the morning, when it will be all over everything.
I agree but how ever this election might turn out, it won't be over. If T wins, we are in for 4 more years of insanity. If he loses he'll throw a tantrum like a 3 year old and declare the election to be forged. As I see it, he'll have to be removed from the White House either surgically or with an army.

random fact: I often dream in English. Annoyingly, in my dreams I can recall vocabulary that is inacessible to me while awake. It's amazing how much information we store subconsciousely.
I almost always dream in English.
The only times I dream in Tagalog are when the dreams involve family members or other Filipinos.
