[emo-communism]

is anyone else just like. constantly filled with rage about their position under late capitalism and how we are expected to just keep playing this game that we know will literally kill us, is already killing people all over the world, and yet everyone around us is somehow fine with going about business as usual, with pretending we are free by being able to choose between different ways of being exploited. there is nothing more dehumanising than being forced to partake in a system that is actively detrimental to our survival as human beings, that is so physically, psychologically and spiritually destructive, and i don’t know how to deal with this anger anymore

For all of the northerners that stood up for Texas during our freeze and said, "Don't make fun of them, they've never dealt with this before. Their infrastructure isn't made for snow and freezing."

This one is for you.

Where I live 108°F with 80% humidity with no wind is normal.

Pacific North West is dealing historic best waves 35-40°C or 95-105°F.

First of all. Don't make fun of them for bitching about the heat. Just like Texas isn't built for a freeze and our pipes burst, Pacific North West isn't built for heat and a lot of their homes don't have AC.

If you live somewhere with a high humidity like 80+ HUMIDITY IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. The "humidity makes it feel cooler" is a lie once it gets beyond a point.

If you live somewhere with a lower humidity, misters are nice to cool off outside.

Once you get over 90°F (32°C) a fan will not help you. It's just pushing around hot air. (I mean if you can't afford a small AC unit because they're expensive as hell, by all means a fan is better than nothing).

If you have pets, those portable AC units aren't safe. If your pets destroy the outtake thing, it'll leak CO2. Window units are safer.

Window AC units will let mosquitoes or other small bugs in. Sucks, but that's life.

Now is not the time to me modest. If you have to cover for religious reasons, by all means. If you don't, I've seen people wear short shorts and a swim top. It's not trashy if it keeps you from getting heat stroke.

If you do have to cover up for religious reasons, look for elephant pants or something similar. They're made with a breathable material.

Shade is better than no shade, but that shit it just diet sun after some point. Don't think shade will save you from heat stroke.

I know the "drink your water" is a fun meme now, but if you're sweating excessively you need electrolytes. Drink Gatorade, Powerade, or Pedialite PLEASE. I don't care if you're fucking sitting in one spot all day. That shit WILL save you from heat stroke.

Most importantly. RESEARCH THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEAT STROKE AND HEAT EXHAUSTION PLEASE!

Heat exhaustion is more, "drink water and get you cooled off." Heat stroke is more "Oh my god call 911."

Be safe.

Wear a hat and regularly soak it in water. As it dries it will cool your head. Its in the mid 90s here today and my hat is drying out in an hour or so, plan accordingly.

Take your time with tasks Physical activity generates body heat and you do not need more of that.

Good curtains on your windows help keep the sun out and the ac in.

[metalheadsagainstfascism]

Yes.

If you can afford it, blackout curtains or really thick curtains that keeps the sun out will insulate the windows.

I needed this when I lived in an apartment where my room faced west because the setting sun was too hot and the AC couldn't keep up.

[Image description: an infographic showing the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke. The graphic is labeled "Heat Dangers: First Warning." Signs of heat exhaustion: faint or dizzy, excessive sweating, cool, pale, clammy skin, rapid, weak pulse, muscle cramps. If you think you or someone else may be experiencing heat exhaustion, get to a cool, air-conditioned place, drink water if conscious, and take a cool shower or use cold compress. Signs of heat stroke: throbbing headache, no sweating, red, hot, dry skin, rapid, strong pulse, may lose consciousness. If you think you or someone else may be experiencing heat stroke, call 911.

Please be safe, friends. I know this is aimed at those who live in the PNW but those of us who live in temps like this regularly could always use a reminder.

Also checked on loved ones, especially those who are disabled, elderly, or those with very young children.

a minor will probably be cast for percy in the disney+ show so you need to not be a fucking freak and put aside your “percy is hot” brain if you’re an adult

[antimonarchy]

don't sexualize the characters

don't loudly proclaim your attraction to the minors if you yourself are not close to their ages (even if you're an older minor. it's weird)

do not. ship. the actors. I do not want a stranger things .2

even if you're talking about adults keep things sfw because the work is intended for minors and most of the characters are

I'm going to repeat it again: don't sexualize the characters

if percy is played by a poc in the tv shows there will be no white percy fanarts and that's exactly what i want

“I’m watching Shadow and Bone for the plot”

The Plot:

[shroomzoom]

kind of rude of finals to happen when shadow and bone on netflix is about to come out

[lhazaar]

i, personally, love to straddle that fine line between “fandom blog” and “record of complete psychological breakdown”

[shroomzoom]

someone's probably said this before but here's my hot take aedion shouldve died in qos and aelin and lysandra shouldve ended up together

rowan shouldve adopted aelin cause she needs a parental figure who isnt a pedophile thanks

[shroomzoom]

tbh tho sjm had so many opportunities to include lgbt+ rep and she diDNT DO IT like think about the dorianxchaol childhood friends to lovers potential the rowanxgavriel gay uncles potential like broooo

all im saying is tog wouldve been better if we just had more gay yenno???

[inkwingart]

it sucks no Asian artists were involved :( the organiser is Asian themself so I don't think that was intentional, but the result is still so frustrating. love your art so much, you and other Asian artists deserve all the recognition and support

It was so bizarre going on ig and seeing this fundraiser everywhere that I hadn’t heard of at all. I originally figured I wasn’t asked to participate because I’m not exactly active, so I wasn’t even bothered until I saw that none of the artists besides xandrei were Asian. I didn’t even want to say anything at first, because I was worried about interfering with support for the fundraiser. But after some chatting with others in the fandom it turns out I wasn’t the only one who felt blindsided and frustrated by this. And then there’s the fact that apparently this whole thing is being hosted through redbubble... which, listen. I get not wanting or knowing how to deal with printing and shipping but the profit from sites like RB and S6 is laughably tiny. Some of us already have prints ready to go, they could have just asked around!

Anyway, thank you to everyone who has showered me with support since I made that post, I didn’t expect it to take off like that 💖While I have your attention, if you want to donate on my behalf directly to the AAPI, NAACP, or any of the fundraisers for victims of anti-asian or anti-black hate crimes, $10 will get you a gold foil print, while supplies last.

These are the exact same prints available in my storenvy, and I will eat the shipping costs if you show me proof of donation.

Everyone should know the international sign for Help Me. Let’s make this famous!!

Interesting; I didn't know this was a thing.

[hopefulmisanthrope]

It’s apparently a thing, but it’s a very new thing, so it may need some help being known.
