Can you please reblog if your blog is a safe place for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, aromantic, pansexual, non binary, demisexual or any other kind of queer or questioning people? Because mine is.
fucking around for three days and then making a herculean effort on day four that restores your average progress to what a moderately inept person would have achieved with consistent effort, that’s what it’s all about.
to stay warm, advice from a canadian who deals with -40C weather to the americans in the south
blankets and sheets, get them layers in your bed. wear a loose hoodie to bed and socks too. it helps. put a blanket under you too to keep your back warm
put a rug underneath your bed, it helps with insulating your bed from the cold
drink water, like hot weather n the summer, cold weather will dehydrate you and you will get colder. so to warm up, drink water
get enough sleep. srsly, it will help you deal with cold weather
take a lot of breaks if you are going outside. like stagger how long you are outside and hydrate
don’t burn propane indoors, or keep your oven open
if you are going to make a fire, do it in a fireplace and make sure your flume is open
share body heat with your pet or family by getting under the covers together. it helps.
hot water bottles, electric heat pads and rice bags are great to warm up the bed.
close your blinds and use curtains or sheets to cover the windows, it will help with insulating from the cold. especially at night. you can even get some styrofoam from a hardware store or window insulation. my sister’s apartment had terrible windows and she used blackout curtains to keep the heat in
baking! do some baking. it really heats up the house. like make a pound cake, something that takes 60 mins. srsly even in -40C i had to turn off the heat in my apartment because the oven heated the whole place and also, CAKE
going outside requires: shirt and sweater/hoodie , sometimes an undershirt if you aren’t used to the cold. keep your core covered! a scarf! the heaviest coat, socks! pants! and water proof or insulated boots. double up on socks too! and gloves and a hat. in a pinch a kerchief can make a good headband and combine that with a hood it’s a makeshift hat
give your car time to warm up, the oil needs to be at the midpoint! so start the car and let it run before going somewhere
keep two car lengths between cars, it gives you enough time to break. the road is icy! and you probably don’t have winter tires, road salt or ploughing so give your car time to stop. like srsly, also go slow! put your hazards on too to let other cars see you and if you are going slow
soup, make some soup
also hot chocolate is also great
stay warm and i love you guys

PLEASE READ. WILL NOT HURT TO AND FORWARD. Kids are putting Drano, tin foil, and a little water in plastic drink bottles and capping it up - leaving it on lawns, in mail boxes, in gardens, on driveways etc. just waiting for you to pick it up intending to put it in the rubbish, but you’ll never make it!!!
If the bottle is picked up, and the bottle is shaken even just a little - in about 30 seconds or less it builds up enough gas which then explodes with enough force to remove some your extremities. The liquid that comes out is boiling hot as well. Don’t pick up any plastic bottles that may be lying in your yards or in the gutter, etc. Pay attention to this. A plastic bottle with a cap. A little Drano. A little water. A small piece of foil. Disturb it by moving it; and BOOM!! No fingers left and other serious effects to your face, eyes, etc. Please ensure that everyone that may not have email access are also informed of this.
Snopes confirms.
PSA! SPREAD THIS AS FAR AS YOU CAN!
I.C.E HAS BEEN REPORTED TO BE AT SEATTLE, DENVER, AND SAN JOSE PROTESTS. THEY ARE DETAINING PEOPLE. IF YOU ARE UNDOCUMENTED THEN YOU ARE IN DANGER.
I am willing to bet that they will soon be at other protests as well. Please stay home if you are undocumented. Please be safe. We don't want you to get hurt or killed.
Please spread this as far as you possibly can.
UPDATE: ICE HAS BEEN SPOTTED IN NEW YORK AND BOSTON AS WELL. SHARE AGAIN!
Abled gays celebrating marriage equality: well we sure do have nowhere to go from here when it comes to marriage rights. Gay rights!
Me, a disabled lesbian trying to get on ssi thinking about how I will not be able to marry my girlfriend if I do because I can't have more than $2000 to my name at a time and they count a spouse's income towards that: wow .. gay rights ...
