Snow leopards. Like all creatures of the high mountains, they have had to adapt both their body and their behaviour to survive. (Planet Earth II)

[thievesguilding]

honestly if you want to take proper care of your goths you shouldn’t take them outside in hot weather at all, just winter and MAYBE late autumn/early spring if you live in a cool climate

people really should do this kind of research before getting goths at all but as long as they’re willing to learn and adapt i guess

[amgeforns]

there are breeds of goth suitable for warmer climes but you have to be very careful when looking for one and you cannot assume that your goth is one of them if you don’t know for sure what they are

[thievesguilding]

even the warm-climate breeds still usually do better in their native locale’s winter temperatures though, and shouldn’t be left outside in the summer unattended or, at the bare minimum, they should be given plentiful shade, cold water, and appropriate music to keep them calm

[corvidobligation]

Honestly, if you want something less fragile than a goth, you should be considering something like a punk anyway. There’s no need to expose goths to the heat, IMHO. Admittedly there’s differences you need to do research on, but punks are very rewarding. And for God’s sake, if anyone tells you ANY emo can handle the heat, run. They don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about.

[thievesguilding]

goths aren’t fragile though? they’re not heat-tolerant but they’re extremely hardy in dark and stormy weather, metal concerts, and dramatic emotional episodes. just because they aren’t well-suited to one weather pattern doesn’t mean they can’t be extremely hardy and rewarding to keep under conditions they’re better suited to.

[wetwareproblem]

Forget the climate thing, there’s a more important husbandry issue here: WHO THE FUCK PUT THEM OUT IN THE DAYTIME? Direct sunlight is extremely harmful to goths! THey should never be outdoors before twilight! Do your damn research, people.

[thievesguilding]

you’re missing a key point though

goths need the opportunity to complain about sunlight, it’s vital to their wellbeing; as long as their time in it is carefully controlled and they’re given sufficient sunscreen and shade, it can be amazing and 100% necessary enrichment

[wetwareproblem]

Look at that picture. Look at it. Please tell me where the shade is, because I don’t see any. I see two goths wilting in direct sunlight. Just look at how flat their hair is! This is not even remotely acceptable care.

[thievesguilding]

i never said the picture was a good example of goth husbandry, i think it’s sort of taken as a given that it’s not - nobody in this threat is endorsing it, op included

i’m just saying that it isn’t a black and white issue

[wetwareproblem]

Fair enough. I’ll concede that a properly-shaded porch or sunroom-type area can help them get the outdoor enrichment and complaining opportunities they need, without putting them at risk of direct sunlight or actually touching anything outdoors. But be careful not to overexpose them.

[skyheartstar13]

Aren’t there some varieties of goth that are built for sunlight, or is that me mistaking a similar species for goths?

[wetwareproblem]

You’re thinking of either New Romantics - unfortunately presumed extinct, you could tell them apart by their lack of Victorian plumage and occasional colouration - or Emos, which are the product of a crossbreeding with Shoegazers.

[bramblepatch]

As mentioned above, emos don’t handle heat well, although they do better with moderate amounts of sun than purebred goths.

If it’s the ornate Victorian aesthetic you like but you want something that can keep up with a more active, diurnal lifestyle, you might consider a steampunk or steampunk cross? I know they’re somewhat out of fashion these days, but they can be just as endearingly dramatic as other goth breeds, and they thrive on daylight outings.

[missoyashirou]

People are also ignoring some of the international breeds of Goths available, like the Elegant Gothic Lolita. They were intentionally bred to stand the heats of summer at the Shibuya Scramble and Harajuku, and do best in event spaces where they can preen and engage in skirt-fanning. Plus, while they’re not Goths, Metalheads are a pretty close strain of fashionable music fans who outright need to be able to mosh and rave in highly crowded, highly active areas with high heat. That being said, check your Goths before you leave them out for a significant amount of time. Fishnet is often a good signifier if your Goth can tolerate the heat, versus velvet or leather.

I was in a tattoo parlor and Rihanna came in wearing bell bottom jeans, chuncky heels and no shirt. When I asked her where her shirt was, she looked me in the face and said, “Oh hun, today is a titties out kind of day.“

“Father’s Day makes me feel uncomfortable because I had/have a bad relationship/experiences with my dad. I don’t celebrate it.”

“My father was bad so all fathers are useless piles of shit who hate their kids and don’t deserve any love or praise.”

How to fold towels all fancy like hotels do

Step 1: Lay towel out flat and remove any clingy pets 

Step 2: Fold one corner over until it is flush with the edge of the towel

Step 3: Once again, remove your dog that can’t go 30 seconds without attention

Step 4: Fold towel in half the long way and flip over

Step 5: Ollie, please. 

Step 6: Roll the towel from the non-triangle end 

Step 7: Tuck the left over flap into the top of the towel

Tada!
