    Who gets chapped lips from a sunny day? Where are you, the fucking Sahara desert?

    I love all this and the fact that exposure to the sun can make my autoimmune disease worse and can actually do permanent damage to organs and could kill me if I get burnt bad enough. Got the diagnosis right after I got back into riding horses. -_-

    I nearly died from being out in the Sun too long, and yet as an adult I insist on lying out on the beach like a chicken leg on a grill (with water this time at least).

      To be fair, exposing yourself to the sun is unsafe. During summer the rule is: Don’t go out into the sun. If you have to go into the sun, cover yourself with clothes. If you can’t cover yourself with clothes, wear sunscreen. And limit the sun exposure to an absolute minimum. There is no safe tan.

      The basic two-step human respiratory process completely baffles anon. He regularly forgets whether he should inhale or exhale. Anon is well known for tripping over stray dust particles.

      As someone who wears sun hoodies to avoid negative effects, I respect the evils of the sun.

      That being said, people in the US need to learn acclimation. It does not need to be 15 degrees colder inside. In 2 weeks your body normalizes.

        As someone who does not live in a climate controlled home but occasionally stays with people who do, I wholly disagree. I love being able to breathe and think rather than having to be in a place that’s just 7-10°F colder because of a lot of effort airing at the right times.

          Yeah, idk what that guy is about, few months ago the outside temp was like 32°C and, because my apartment has crap insulation, the inside temp was either equal or higher. That was not fun and didn’t help with going outside at all.

            I have this too. Some genius did not invest in window blinds on the outside.

            By midday I can just open up everything and let the 32c air in because it already warmed up to that temperature.
