At least if you live in a place that isn't on fire or cooking to death for its entire duration

I just like seeing trees blob-no-thoughts

Saw a deer moments before taking this photo ferret

    My mom sent me a picture the other day of a black bear that climbed their cherry tree on a beautiful 70 degree day

    It’s 98 degrees here and the sun hurts on my skin

      98 F works out to... almost 37 C

      I would simply perish elmofire

      Also I'm happy I don't need to worry about seeing a bear this far south. Had a mama moose(or rather, elk) and her calf cross the road in front of me while I was walking home to my apartment one evening a few summers ago and that was already too 2spooky4me

        it's rare but it can get as high as ~106 (41 C) where I live

        & I live in a house with poor insulation and no air conditioning

          Air conditioning isn't generally a thing here either, mostly because it hasn't historically been that warm

          When it gets hot I just have an electric fan pointed at my face at all times when I'm home

        Yeah, it’s vile. I’m moving out of Florida at the end of July and it can’t come quick enough. The last few years the heat has gotten soooo bad.

        And thankfully it was just a black bear in Virginia, so just a little guy who wanted some cherries. If it was a grizzly it’d be a lot more concerning lol
