A teenager cannot get reconstructive surgery. But a parent can circumcise a baby.

A teenager cannot get body modifications. But a parent can pierce a baby's ears.

A teenager (or even a 20 year old) cannot buy cigarettes. But a parent can smoke in places where their toddler is forced to be.

What a teenager chooses is met with stricter scrutiny than what's forced on a very young child.

[asksloyxp]

Maybe the cup needs to lock the fuck in???

Tommy: I think you’re in love with Eddie, the former owner of this house

Buck: okay first of all Eddie did NOT own this house, he rented it. Second of all, he’s straight

Sheriff: I think you murdered your husband, Evan Buckley

Eddie: okay, first of all he likes to be called Buck. Second of all, I would NEVER murder him

Also not cropped because I have better things to do and found all of this on Facebook, where someone other industrious soul copied it from Bluesky.

AROMANTICISM!!!!!

AROMANTICISM‼️💥💥💥‼️‼️‼️💥‼️💥‼️

[hagoftheholler]

The southern states in the US are expecting to get hit with severe winter weather this weekend (temperatures below freezing, ice, and snow). The type that we do not experience on the regular. Speaking as a southerner, many of us are not good at coping with this type of thing. I want to emphasize something: this is not our faults. The infrastructure in southern states were not built to be suitable for this type of weather. The supplies we have available to us to deal with snow and ice aren't nearly as vast as northern states because this type of weather is not normal for us.

That being said, it would be wise to prepare in every way possible while there is still time. Even if it doesn't turn out as bad as predicted, better to be safe than sorry. Here is a checklist of things to consider:

Stock Up On:

• Multiple Gallons of Water (water lines are very likely to freeze, even with faucets dripping)

• Shelf Stable Food (canned goods, noodles, granola bars, cereal, etc)

• All Necessary Supplies for Your Pets

• First Aid Supplies (You never know when it could be needed.)

• Long-Lasting Candles (in case the power goes out, but flashlights are preferred over candles)

• Matches (lighter fluid freezes in cold temperatures)

• Flashlights

• Batteries

• Paper Products (Toilet Paper, Paper Towels, Tissues, Paper Bowls + Plates, etc)

• Hats, Gloves, Socks (Your hands, feet, and ears will thank you later.)

• Blankets

• Battery Banks (for your phone, in case electricity goes out)

• For those who have a vehicle, make sure you fill it up on gas.

• GET ANY NECESSARY MEDICATIONS REFILLED IF POSSIBLE.

DO:

• Wear layers. I know this can be a sensory nightmare for some but if your electricity goes out, you will need to stay warm with what you have. If you have wool-based or waterproof fabrics, use it.

• Take advantage of outdoor fireplaces and grills for heat if needed. Many homes these days do not have wood stoves or fireplaces, so if you absolutely need a heat source take advantage of what is outdoors if necessary.

• Inform yourself of the symptoms of and basic treatments for hypothermia and frostbite.

• Pay attention to your health. Do not overexert yourself. Do not waste your energy on tasks that are not immediately important. Conserve your energy.

DO NOT:

• Do not leave any fires or other sources of heat unattended, and do not allow any flammable objects near sources of heat.

• Do not use a gas-fueled oven or stove for a source of heat. This can lead to carbon monoxide buildup in your space. That shit will kill you.

• Do not use your vehicle for heat when it is inside a garage or other closed-off space. Again, carbon monoxide. That shit will kill you. You will also want to save your gas as much as possible.

• Do not try to travel unless it is absolutely necessary, and if it is necessary to travel in a vehicle be careful. If you are considering staying with a friend or relative, or even seeking shelter at a place like a hotel, get there before the severe weather hits.

[hagoftheholler]

If you have livestock of any kind, please give them fresh bedding that insulates well while you still can. Consider what you may need to do to keep them warm, such as bringing them inside.

[fakehouseresident]

As an Iowan who regularly travels to Wisconsin in winter wearing skirts and dresses, I would like to add a guide to cold weather clothing layering.

Layering has three main components:

Close to Body Moisture Layer

Insulating Fluff Layer

Protective Outer Layer

This is the key to survival. When you get it all on, it might feel a little bulky and silly but its worth it.

1. Close to Body Moisture Layer

The point of this layer is twofold. It absorbs sweat your body produces (which will get cold on your skin otherwise) and holds in your already existing body heat.

Youre gonna want something like thick leggings and a longsleeve shirt usually. As tight to the skin as you can get. Underarmor makes a lot of things like this specifically for this purpose and are labeled as being rated for certain temps.

If you dont have that, use the closest fitting shirt/pants you have, even if its a tank top. Keeping your core warm is the most important thing.

Also consider wearing more than one.

2. Insulating Fluff Layer

You know how insulation foam works? The air pockets trap the air from escaping by not giving it a clear path out/in.

This is your bigger, bulky layer. The goal is to create air pockets that trap your heat in and keep cold out. So, baggy shirts (ideally more than one), sweaters, thick pants and/or layered skirts.

Denim, while durable, is not ideal for this layer on its own. Its absolute garbage for insulation. You are going to want to wear some sort of fuzzy pajama pants or something under them.

Thick knits in natural fibers like wool or alpaca are ideal, but prioritize thickness over material.

3. Protective Outer Layer

This is your coat and your outerwear accessories.

Ideally, having a heavy, natural fiber coat is ideal. I have a long wool coat that I keep repairing because its lasted me over a decade and wool keeps you warm even when its wet.

But if you dont have that, try for something with moisture resistance, like a puffer coat. Leather is okay, but you will want more insulating layers if you go that route. (Also you probably need to do maintaining on your leathers, but thats another rant for another day).

This is where denim would go, on the outside to protect from the elements.

You are also going to want at least one scarf, but probably two. One for close to the body for heat retention and a bulkier one for protection. I tend to use a vintage fur stole for the outer layer, but its not the best option if its going to keep getting wet. If your scarf is big enough it can also cover your ears.

Which also! Cover your ears! They have like no fat! Hats, headbands, earmuffs, balaclava, little babushka scarf, etc. I am usually using my headphones for this plus my coat hood if its bad enough. Face masks are also helpful for this.

Gloves are also vital. This is going to sound a little broken record, but ideally you should have two pairs on. One pair of fuzzy ones for inside (ideally wool) and one pair of moisture resistant for the outside (especially if you are going to touch snow)

Socks are similar, at least two pairs. One for moisture wicking (your feet sweat more than you think) and one for insulation. Maybe one more pair for safe measure.

Shoes should ideally be something leather or weather resistant, have good treads, maybe some ankle support. Avoid untreated cloth/canvas as much as you can.

Assorted Tips

Avoid having any gaps in your outfits. Yes, its annoying to have to retuck everything in the bathroom, but its worth it to not have the cold air goose you unexpectedly. You might have to tuck clothes in weird ways, like sleeves into your gloves.

If you are going somewhere where you have to wear less than ideal shoes, maybe wear proper shoes there and put your other shoes on at your destination

Eat more if you can! Your body needs more fuel to burn to keep you warm! Protein and starch is ideal, since it lasts longer than sugary stuff tends to.

If you get soaked for some reason, you are going to want to change wet clothes to dry clothes as soon as possible.

However! Do not go from cold to hot too quickly, as this can cause shock! Warm yourself gradually.

Do not be afraid to double/triple up on anything on this list. It might look/feel silly, but its worth it to stay warm.

Hopefully someone finds this helpful. Im about to practice what I preach and head out. Stay warm y'all. ❤️‍🔥
