When I get cold I stay cold. It’s like it soaks into my bones (I know that’s not how heat works but that’s what it feels like) no amount of added layers after that helps.

I do, it doesn’t matter unless I’m just outside for a short time. Eventually wind gets through or I have to take a glove off for something and it’s all downhill from there.
Take off your skin
Honestly one of my favourite ideas from the Castlevania animation. Isaac was a genius
Yes, the time of year with constant depression and the only outdoor activity being surviving is my favorite.
I’m constantly depressed in Winter because of the short days. Nothing more depressing than having to leave home for work in the dark and only returning when it’s already dark.
Darkness is actually great in areas without light pollution! Like polar opposite to “depressing”
Yeah that’s not how seasonal affective disorder works. I can view the starry night sky as magical the same as anyone else but not enough bright light hitting my eyeballs will result in me being depressed as fuck.
I feel that so hard. Where I work, inside a big refrigerated box inside a warehouse, there are times the only natural light I see is when I go outside for my breaks (for a total of a bit less than an hour). I live far enough north that it’s dark when I start and dark when I end my shift. And yeah, that fucks with me pretty good
I have always found the night sky absolutely magical. And even when I’m in that state, there’s something humbling and welcoming and comforting looking up at the stars and realizing that my feelings of “I don’t matter” are valid because I am nothing in this great universe; and those moments are ok because everyone and everything are so insignificant in relation to the vastness of our universe
I don’t know where you live that item like that. In Finland there’s a shitload of activities during winter
I just dont like the outside when its always wet and dark. I enjoy skiing but my motivation to go out drops below zero with the temperatures
Wet and dark sucks, but if there’s snow then that’s great imo
This, so much. I hate the heat as much as anyone else, but the cold isn’t any better and at least in summer there’s more stuff to do and more sun for my Vitamin D-lacking ass.
I also dont like summer.
future humans will spend summers trying to survive in air conditioning, & spend winters trying to survive in air conditioning. we did this to ourselves
No, billionaires did this to us 🪻
Climate change is just conditioning and preparing us for extra terrestrial housing
Well summer never made me want to kill myself so I tend to prefer it. Severe seasonal affective disorder is interesting.
That said these days I have ways of dealing with it. Turns out running during the winter days is kinda neat because you end up getting endorphins and UV. I also have one of those SAD lamps and they truly work for me. Nowadays I like winter a lot more - especially cozy stuff like knitting and tea.
I do think that the world’s increasing waistlines affect people’s attitude about summer. I know that the bigger you are, the more miserable the heat can feel. Plus wearing revealing clothes isn’t fun for everyone, especially with things like chub rub. On the flip side, being skinny makes you pretty cold so the winter can be miserable. I know that no amount of layers would help the ache in my bones when I was underweight.
This is why autumn is bae. Hot enough to be outside, cold enough to not sweat, pretty colours and harvest activities, Halloween… Autumn wins. Close second is spring, which I hear is fabulous in many places, but in Canada is mostly just freezing winter temperatures, one week of trees blooming, and then just 30 C temperatures after that.

That’s your experience. No matter how well I dress, I can’t stop my bones from aching in the cold. On the flip side, I’m typically comfortable in the heat, even in 38 Celsius temps. I obviously have an upper limit of like 40-45C, but so do most humans.
Likewise it’s not really safe to chill outside in -40 to -50C for most humans either. At that point you’re getting frostbite through the wool underlayers, and the exposed skin will literally sting.

U want sum fuk?
Awesome cave painting vibes
I have to remind myself that I’m in Ohio, and that nothing happens here, especially the hottest seven days in human history, I think we barely hit 90s this year. They happened somewhere. Not here.
So of course, I wouldn’t understand why all the hateposts about summer. It doesn’t kill people here. Winter does. Winter has black ice and doing a clownfall onto the back of your head that kills you or breaks a bone under (inconsolable weeping) American healthcare, so yeah, if that stuff doesn’t happen to you in winter but summer hits 100F I’m sure you think summer lovers are crazy people.
Summer so hot down here we have to stay inside because of forest fires
Climate change also brings more chances to get extreme snowfall so that could be fun.
I just wanna wear shorts and sleeveless shirts
i wanna not have to wear exactly that. i want my hoodie and jeans and im happy
Same but I also enjoying cross-country skiing and winter stuff like that. I guess where I live in Finland we get it good both ways, not too hot summers and alright winters (when we get proper amount of snow)
Yea i’m a Finn too lol, I’ve kinda started to enjoy winters too

I feel like people who like snow have never had to wake up at 3am to start a 15 hour shift of snow plowing and removal. And then another day of it, and several more.
Snow plowing and removal at a scale larger than my driveway and sidewalks is fucking horrible. I used to love and enjoy snow prior to it being part of my job.
Father-in-law does that. He really likes it because he makes lot of money.
That’s me! (And I’m happy :)
At least you’re happy bestie
Global warming? Can’t wait!
exactly; summer is great!
So much fun shit you can’t even consider in the winter! Sure you can swim inside but it’s not the same!
I was so sick of summer that I moved to Minnesota, but indoor swimming pools are just weird. They’re always awkwardly echoing spaces that smell funny and the water is frigid. I really miss nice outdoor swimming pools.
YES!* OMG the echo! It’d be fine if it wasn’t for that!*
Still beats not swimming, I guess.

I prefer the cold to the heat, but snow and ice can go fuck themselves too. One time, it took me over five hours to drive home from uni, something that should take 50 minutes. A woman died in that traffic, she froze in her car
