I am out of my habitat. I am a husky that you own in California. Natural selection made me adapt to the cold not the heat.

Does anyone have trouble with pressure changes?
My inner ears are screaming in pain right now and I'm not sure what to do...
It's the worst it's been in a while 😭
The Sweatshirt I Didn’t Expect to Need
It was one of those mornings that looked predictable.
The sky was clear, the air mild, the kind of day that didn’t seem to require preparation. I almost left without it. I nearly convinced myself it would be unnecessary—an extra layer to carry for no reason.
But habit won.
I picked up a parke sweatshirt on my way out, more out of routine than foresight. It felt like something I probably wouldn’t need, and I considered leaving it behind twice before closing the door.
The afternoon changed slowly.
The wind picked up first—nothing dramatic, just enough to make sleeves feel shorter. Then the clouds drifted in, dimming the brightness that had made the day feel reliable. Conversations moved outside, then back in again. Plans shifted locations without announcement.
I hadn’t prepared for any of it.
There’s a certain kind of comfort in being wrong in your favor. In expecting ease and getting unpredictability—but having quietly accounted for it anyway.
I pulled the sweatshirt back on as the temperature dipped. The fabric settled against my shoulders in a way that felt less about warmth and more about steadiness. It didn’t make the wind disappear. It didn’t clarify the sky. It just adjusted with the day.
Unexpected need has a way of revealing how much we underestimate change. We plan for what’s obvious. We prepare for what’s extreme. But it’s the subtle shifts—the cooler air, the extended wait, the lingering evening—that require small contingencies.
By the time I headed home, the air had cooled fully. Streetlights came on earlier than I’d expected. I was grateful I hadn’t left the layer behind.
The sweatshirt I didn’t expect to need wasn’t heroic or dramatic. It was just there when the day tilted slightly off its original axis.
Sometimes that’s all preparedness is—something ordinary, quietly available, when the forecast proves incomplet

I haven't been on here much lately. It takes spoons I don't have which sucks. I'm in the middle of a pain flare. It's currently midnight between Saturday night and Sunday morning and I've been dealing with this since Friday. Everything hurts. I have a love/hate relationship when the weather gets cold. It fucks with my fibromyalgia and my back. Everything hurts so much right now. My normal meds help some but they also can make me sleepy and I can't drive on them. They're only muscle relaxers, and I have to take twice as much as prescribed to see a result, but they help sometimes. That and 2000mg of Tylenol at a time. Yea, it's fun.
Plus my sims has been lagging so badly that I can't play lots with clutter or households with more than 2 sims. So I broke down and financed new parts for my pc. I don't play much else on my computer but my bf said that if it makes me happy I should go for it. It'll also be helpful if I ever go back into competitive games again too. So hey if anyone wants to play a fps or br let me know.
I'm looking into having a local shop put the parts in for me so I don't mess it up, I'm really scared about that... But what if they mess it up? 😬
Can you feel weather symptoms in your bones or in your head? Discover four ways high- and low-barometric-pressure changes affect your body.
How Weather Changes Affect Asthma & Lung Health – Expert Tips from Dr. Vikas Jaiswal
1. Hot & Humid Weather
High humidity increases mold, dust mites, and air pollution, which can worsen asthma symptoms.
Warm air holds more allergens, triggering allergic reactions and respiratory discomfort.
Excess heat causes dehydration, leading to thicker mucus and breathing difficulties.
Tips to Stay Safe: ✅ Stay indoors during peak heat hours. ✅ Use an air purifier to reduce allergens. ✅ Stay hydrated to keep mucus thin and airways clear.
2. Cold & Dry Weather
Cold air narrows the airways, making breathing difficult for asthma and COPD patients.
Dry air irritates the respiratory tract, triggering cough, wheezing, and shortness of breath.
Exposure to cold air can increase the risk of respiratory infections like flu and pneumonia.
Tips to Stay Safe: ✅ Wear a scarf or mask to warm the air before breathing. ✅ Use a humidifier at home to prevent dryness. ✅ Get flu and pneumonia vaccinations to prevent infections.
3. Monsoon Season & Rainy Weather
Increased moisture leads to mold growth and dust mites, which can worsen asthma.
Air pollution traps pollutants closer to the ground, increasing lung irritation.
Sudden temperature drops can trigger bronchospasms (airway tightening).
Tips to Stay Safe: ✅ Keep your home dry and free from mold. ✅ Avoid going outside after heavy rainfall when pollen levels are high. ✅ Take allergy medications if prescribed by your doctor.
4. Storms & High Winds
Windy conditions spread pollen, dust, and pollutants, increasing the risk of asthma attacks.
Thunderstorms can lead to “thunderstorm asthma,” where sudden weather changes trigger severe breathing problems.
Tips to Stay Safe: ✅ Close windows during storms and use an air filter indoors. ✅ Take prescribed medications regularly. ✅ Monitor air quality levels before stepping outside.
General Tips to Maintain Good Lung Health in Any Weather
Dr. Vikas Jaiswal recommends: ✔ Keep emergency inhalers handy if you have asthma. ✔ Monitor pollution and pollen levels before stepping outside. ✔ Maintain a healthy diet rich in antioxidants to strengthen lung function. ✔ Practice deep breathing exercises and lung-strengthening yoga. ✔ Follow your doctor’s prescribed treatment plan.
