The Last Poster Wins [v29]

[Chakramaster]

My dad doesn't like snow, and while sometimes it can be pesky, I think it would be a little sad if it was gone for good. A nice, quiet, snowy winter can be really comforting if you don't have anywhere to be and can just relax at home. Warm up with some nice hot cocoa and a fun and cozy Pokemon kigurumi as the snow softly gathers outside. That's just pure bliss.

Yeah it all depends. Some people up north hate snow and the cold. Lived with it all their life and are just tired of it. Like some people here down south. So tired of the rain and heat where some places don't see rain, but maybe a few days a year. The cost of living and jobs are so hard to get and come by. It makes reaching out for these dreams people may have to see something different really challenging.

To someone like me that wants a colder environment and to see more snow. Snow more than once in a blue moon and say 3-5 inches or more at a time. Sure it means to actually shovel snow, but I'd welcome that! It's a small price to pay to immerse myself in something incredible like that.

Yeah that's how I feel. I feel it makes it being able to enjoy nice warm cups of cocoa by a fire like the saying goes. Get to wear a nice winter jacket for once and things like that yeah! A nice and cozy Pokemon kigurumi! Hardly got a chance to wear mine cause it never got that cold. I'd start sweating

Yeah, it hit 90F here today. Ugh, it does feel like it's going to be a long summer and we probably won't shake away this heat until November, which is another six months away. I think I'd go nuts if this was all we ever had.

Welcome to my world. Probably one reason I'm losing my mind. xD but seriously yeah it's awful. Luckily it's a bit rainy at times here today and only hit 89F.

What fun is sanity anyway?

For me, trying to sleep when it's roasting out is the worst. I usually don't sleep well during summer, so it affects my overall ability to do things. That, and I usually end up feeling tired in the afternoon as well.

[Chakramaster]

Yup. That's exactly me. Every day after work I just feel exhausted. Typically it's from the heat. Sleeping in hot weather is downright impossible without feeling sick or sticky. It's literally the worst.

[Neo Emolga]

You know just how I feel. XD

With how hot it's been lately, I'm almost thinking of moving further up north, too. This heat has just been oppressive lately.

[Chakramaster]

You at least get cooler weather as it is. This hot and muggy weather is typical here in GA for weather year round. It's why I'd love to have a good paying job somewhere up north I'd love to live. Some place with not much crime and danger of living etc. oh and of course lots of snow. XD

[Neo Emolga]

Me, I think I'd also like a place that's safe, fun, and not too expensive either. Too many places around the tri-state area are really, REALLY overpriced and it's gotten much worse lately.

But yeah, right now, I'm not sure where I'd want to move to. I'd like to be close to family, but it's hard to balance everything that I'd like right now. I'd have to give up something.

[Chakramaster]

yeah that's the thing. Some place safe with a lot to do and isn't insanely expensive. A lot of places I feel are taking advantage of price gouging since COVID. Cause people continue to pay for it anyway and they're already hurting for money.

See that's the sad part for me. I only have a few friends up north. No family or anything there. So if I moved as far north as I want I wouldn't have anyone...

I was lucky in that I told my family I like the cold and hate the heat, and begun moving toward Antarctica as soon as I left home... then over time some of my family agreed they were over the heat and humidity and were also like "hey you know what let's move to where we are comfortable!"
So now I've got family in at least two cold places!
((Also some family in the warm states too... maybe it's just because we are so scattered that theres options like that))

I think I'm like Chakra in that snow is lovely and not a bore-- when I got stuck in Montana last year in March/April/May coz of covid I was delighted to watch snow falling and covering everything, even though the dogs and residents just looked outside with disinterest.
So seasonal! Finally, Easter made sense to me, because bunnies and plants actually were coming out of the ground!
In Aus Easter generally feels more like "hey you've survived the summer heres some chocolate that isnt deformed by the heat" xD
