Sometimes when trimming half square triangles the ruler slips because of the seam bulk.
Leave your baby finger off the ruler as a stabilizer. I learned this trick in Italy from Annie!!
Make sure your other fingers are "up" on their tips instead of having your palm flat over the ruler. That helps make sure your fingers are inside the cutting line.
You only have to cut yourself once with that super sharp rotary blade... am I right?! OUCH!
Cut while in a standing position. Your weight can lean in over the ruler holding it in place and you get a better sight line to make sure you are cutting accurately.
