Do you ever just see something that’s just
SO NICE
And so cute and wholesome
That you start crying because you just want the whole world to be this adorable all the time <3
😊 Heartwarming
Nancy and her friends are lovely :)
Perfect Harmony will not be continuing beyond this point.
I’ll be making a follow up post to hopefully answer some questions, though I’ll say for now this isn’t something I decided on the fly. I thank you all so much for keeping up with the series for this long, it has been an absolute pleasure to see the community interact and react to my silly little comic!
I'm sad to know that Perfect Harmony won't be continued, but I'm sure you have your reason. Thank you for this wonderfully dorky, funny, crazy, silly and beautiful series. It has been a great and fun ride. 🙂
Looking forward for your new project! Ganbatte!! 😉👍👍
Ingrid: Let's play truth or dare! You go first, your highness.
Dimitri: Truth.
Ingrid: How many hours have you slept in the past week?
Dimitri: ...Dare.
Ingrid: Go to sleep!
Dimitri: I don't like this game,
How to Stay Cool Without A/C
A lot of Northerners were very kind during the freeze in Texas this winter with tips on how to stay warm for people who had lost heat. This is an attempt to repay that favor for people in the Pacific Northwest and other northerly locations who are facing dangerous heatwaves without built-in A/C. My qualifications to give this advice are that I was a summer camp attendee and counselor with no A/C for many summers in humid-ass central Texas with highs over 100F basically every day. Hopefully some of it will be of use to somebody who isn’t used to the heat.
1) PUT ICE WATER IN YOUR BODY. Ice water is your best friend and the #1 way to drop your body temp. Drink more than you think you need (like, at least a half-gallon a day and closer to a gallon or more if you have to be outside doing manual work all day) to cool your insides down and stay hydrated. Have some bananas, trail mix, or a sports drink to help replace the electrolytes you’re sweating out and keep you from getting cramps, but try to have most of your fluid intake be water. I used to take a giant water bottle, fill it part way with water, and freeze it on its side so the ice would slowly melt over the course of the day and my water would stay cold longer.
2) PUT ICE WATER ON YOUR BODY. Cold water, ice, or a damp rag on your head and neck, the backs of your knees, the insides of your elbows, and under your armpits will help you cool down the best, because your blood runs close to the surface in those places. Cold packs designed for injuries or lunchboxes, bags of frozen vegetables, etc. can substitute for ice water as well. Even room-temp water will pull heat away from your body better than body-temp sweat will, especially if it’s humid, so if you don’t have enough ice, the sink, bathtub, or hose will do fine. Dipping your feet into cool water helps a ton as well if you have to sit and work and don’t want your clothes to be wet.
3) WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO GET SO MUCH ICE? To make sure you have enough ice to last you the weekend, especially through a potential power failure, I recommend getting a cooler (even one of the cheap styrofoam ones is fine in a pinch) and ~10lbs of ice from the big coolers at most gas stations, drug stores, or grocery stores. Try to do this now, before anybody loses power, and store as much in your freezer as you have space for to keep it from melting. You can use it for drinking or to keep your food cold in a power failure. You can use it for a party later if you don’t end up needing it during the heat wave, but you will probably be very happy you had it.
4) AIR FLOW. Being inside a room with the windows closed is the worst possible place to be if you don’t have A/C, because glass windows create a greenhouse effect and the hot air can’t escape. If at all possible, find a shaded place outside where you can catch any possible breeze. If not, open all your windows and, if it’s safe, doors so you can get a cross-breeze. Hopefully you have window screens to keep pets and kids in and bugs out. If not, you’re gonna have to do your own risk assessment. Fans of all sizes and descriptions are your friend; ceiling fans should be set to spin counterclockwise in summer. Even if you have A/C, finding or making a handheld fan will be worthwhile for when you have to venture outside. If you aren’t in a situation where you need to conserve ice, blowing air over a cooler full of ice will give you a makeshift A/C.
5) SHADE. You will probably immediately notice that direct sunlight is a miserable place to be when it’s super hot. Find or make a shaded location, and don’t be afraid to move around to avoid the sun as the day goes on. Stay on the shady side of the sidewalk whenever you walk someplace. Try to shade your windows as best you can without obstructing airflow using blinds, curtains, shutters, etc. especially if they’re directly in the path of the sun. Do not be a jerk to your neighbors if their shade solutions are ugly. If you can get a shade for your car windshield, I highly recommend it, as the steering wheel, dashboard, seatbelts, and even seats can quickly become too hot to touch in a sealed car and will hold that heat for a long time.
6) CLOTHING. Light-colored, loose clothing that is as close to 100% cotton or linen as you can find is your friend. It doesn’t necessarily have to be short as long as it’s breathable. You will sweat through anything you wear, so I personally prefer only wearing machine-washable stuff. Sun hats, sunscreen, sunglasses, aloe gel for sunburns, mosquito repellent, anti-chafing supplies, etc are all worth looking into if you aren’t used to spending time in the heat.
7) TIMING. Try to stay out of the sun and avoid doing anything strenuous in the middle of the day when the heat is the worst. If you have a choice, plan to be more active early in the morning and late at night when the temperature is more bearable, and take a break in the middle of the afternoon.
Here’s a graphic from the CDC about how to recognize heat-related illnesses and what to do about them. I will add to this that if it’s hot and you stop sweating, you are getting to a dangerous level of dehydration and need to drink something BEFORE you start having more serious problems.
This needed to be shared with the world, @frozenartscapes
Dimitri: To be fair, I’ve never tried to drink a candle!
*eyes candle sitting on the table in front of him in curiosity*
Dedue, moving the candle away: Please don’t, your Highness.
Claude, to Hilda: You want to make the popcorn to watch this play out, or shall I?
Hilda: Answer your own question. And be quick about it, I'm hungry!
Claude: I'll bring you a nice candle?
Petra: is this a tradition I should have heard of?
Dorothea: Please forget ever seeing this.
•~•~•~•
Rhea: She seems to enjoy it. Maybe we should all follow her lead.
Flayn, studying a candle in her hand: the smell sure is good, but I doubt the taste would be as good.
Seteth: banishes candles.
Hapi, in Abyss after Seteth is done: Uhhhhhh... who ordered 14,000 candles?
Constance, eyes lighting up: HOUSE NUVELLE SHALL BE RESTORED IN A RAINBOW RIVER OF MELTING WAX AND SHINING FLAMES
Hapi:
Hapi: ...Coco, we need to talk. Again.
*Everyone sitting in a darkened classroom, trying and failing to study because no one can fucking see*
Jeralt: Kid, you know how I say that sometimes you’re a little too weird for your own good?
Byleth: This is one of those-
Jeralt: This is one of those times.
-- -- --
Thales: Those fools! They have eliminated their main light source! Time for us to strike from the shadows!
*They emerge from the dark, only to find Byleth casually drinking a melted candle, eyes never leaving theirs*
Thales: ...On second thought... Let’s not go to Garreg Mach. It is a silly place
Oh, we're going Monty Python?
Rhea: Proof... finally... that we have no more need for candles. The goddess has returned, to be the light that shines over Fódlan...
Edelgard: Now wait a damn minute, that's my li-
Jeralt: She's not the goddess, she's a very naughty girl!
Byleth, taking another gulp of wax: I like this one. It smells like sweaters.
Hubert: Remind me again what it is you see in her.
Edelgard, going through an emotional crisis: She might be an idiot but she’s my idiot
Ferdinand: I, Ferdinand von Aegir, can eat more candles than Edelgard ever will! Finally, I have found the ultimate proof of my dominance!
Edelgard: *raises an eyebrow at Hubert*
Hubert: ...Fair point, Lady Edelgard. As always, a very fair point.
Dorothea: LIGHT 'EM UP, BEE-BOY 👏👏👏
Dorothea tells him that Edelgard has eaten twenty candles, prompting Ferdinand to raid a chandelier
Edelgard: I’ll have you know I haven’t eaten any candles!
Hubert: You...did...drink one, my Lady.
Edelgard, frantic: By ACCIDENT
Jeralt, watching from afar, sighing: I was wrong. Byleth fits right in here
Manuela, the next day, looking at her patient list and their (shared) reason for being seen: I really need to look for a new position...
Alois: I must say, I'm finding it all wick-edly amusing!
Manuela: I will stab your eyes out with my fingernails. Don't think that I won't.
Jeralt: There's a line...
*crying and wheezing* 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

PUPPY HAS RECEIVED SO MANY PETS AND IS ALL WARMED UP NOW
Science finally found the secret to immortality, but it included treatments that only took hold in newborns. Now the last mortal humans are approaching the ends of their lives.
Immortality is overrated.
Worst of all, those 'immortals' still use up resources and can have children normally, even if the law tried to restrict them, it's not very effective.
Signs of trouble have been stirring for a long time, it's a miracle the pot haven't exploded yet. But, anyone can see that it's just a matter of time now.
They looked at me with pity as my life is dwindling down, I wonder if they know that I pity them more?
Soon, I'll be gone from this world to wherever my soul will be. But they'll have to stay and face what is to come, I wonder how will they see their 'immortality' then? A blessing? Or a curse?
Immortality. Heh...

It's ok, it's ok, it's ok, it's ok
If you're a little lost, we're all a little lost, and it's alright
It's ok, it's ok, it's ok, it's ok
If you're a little lost, we're all a little lost, and it's alright
Oh... it's alright to be lost sometimes

is 28°c/84°f too hot or too cold for you?
28 is a bit on the hot side for me, but not too much. I found myself pretty comfortable with 26-27. 29 and above is 🥵🥵🥵 tho.
Someone help her
Plus OMG HER TEAM IN THE BACKGROUND
I love that kind of friendship.
OOHHH FUUBLBLBLBLB
This is why I don’t tell 99% people im bisexual
I love how gay people do it too. Just… really? You’re literally saying the same shit to bisexuals that straight people say to you, and you don’t see the hypocrisy?
If youre biphobic or hate bisexuals, fucking unfollow me, for serious.
If youre biphobic or hate bisexuals, fucking unfollow me, for serious.
Why is this a thing like really? Homosextual people of ALL beings should understand that you like what you like and if the answer multiple choice then that’s just more love to go around non?
BY REBLOGGING THIS YOU ARE SAYING THAT YOUR BLOG IS COMPLETELY ACCEPTING OF BI FOLKS!!! BISEXUAL PEOPLE ARE PART OF THE LGBT+ COMMUNITY AND IF YOU DISAGREE, PLEASE UNFOLLOW ME
BISEXUAL INDIVIDUALS ARE VALID AND LOVED ON THIS BLOG, PASS IT ON!
BY REBLOGGING THIS YOU ARE SAYING THAT YOUR BLOG IS COMPLETELY ACCEPTING OF BI FOLKS!!! BISEXUAL PEOPLE ARE PART OF THE LGBT+ COMMUNITY AND IF YOU DISAGREE, PLEASE UNFOLLOW ME
Yeah, if you don’t support bi people, unfollow my blog right fucking now. You’re not welcome here.
To other bi people, we are valid and we are here to stay. Bi people in straight relationships are just as valid as bi people in gay relationships. The likelihood of someone cheating does not depend on their sexuality, it depends on how shitty of a person they are.
I saw this text conversation and all of a sudden my inner memester was reawakened
i died 5 times watching this
i can do this probably
How I get to class
You can tell when they’re like “chill chill chill chill chill son”

That’s some anime protagonist bullshit
Wow
