      If you’re cold you can always put on another layer. If you’re hot, you run out of layers to take off

      My hands feel like they’re being crushed by boulders, and face feels like needle face x1000 in the cold. The peak of summer may be miserable but I can still function without extreme pain. And before anybody mentions better gloves or a face covering, it doesn’t help. I’ve tried every magical glove in existence. And heated ones make me sweat after 5-10 minutes and I’m arguably in a worse position, same with full face coverings. FUCK WINTER.

        I hate winter. Switching all my winter wardrobe to wool has made it at least less sweaty under all the layers. Seems like every winter thing is made of some synthetic fiber that acts like wearing a plastic bag when you sweat. Wool is the way.

          Wool is the only (that I am aware of,) fabric that will keep you warm after it’s wet. Cotton is the worst, it sticks to your skin when wet.

          If you are caught outside, stranded, they say to make sure to take layers off, because if you sweat, you die.

      I don’t mind being hot but I hate humidity. It’s 7am and the temperature is 67 with a “feels like” temperature of 77. And there is no breeze. There is never any breeze here. I fucking hate it

      Real talk! I grew up on the equator and moved to somewhere it snows on occasion. All the mfers saying “I can only get so naked” haven’t experienced the cold.
