Also, there are certain medications where you shouldn't be in the sun that long. I really must just put it out there that you should also obey the labels on your medication! Some medications such as those for depression or ADHD can also cause you to overheat faster and more easily. Be aware of this, too, and don't let yourself play off any heat-related symptoms!!

to uk peeps

so you guys are facing down yet another global warming summer and as an american i feel entitled to barge over and give you a lot of advice about how to live your life. also i’m used to surviving 90-110 degree summers (32—43 celsius) with no ac. so here we go. 

you need to drink  a lot of water. on average you should be drinking about two liters. on hot days, double that. 

fill plastic water bottles halfway up and stick them in your freezer. take them out once they’ve frozen and fill the rest up with water, drink the water, fill it up again, and carry it around with you until it’s time to get the next ice bottle. also you can put the icy end against your throat or over your chest for maximum refreshment.

consider making a lot of sun tea. get big glass jars or a pitcher. put a bunch of your preferred teabags in it with some sugar. if you want to be an american southerner, your tea should be green or black and your sugar amount should be enough to kill a child. if you want to be sane, put in as little sugar as you can get away with so it’s not dehydrating, and stick with herbal teas because the last thing you want during the heat of the day is a caffeine boost. leave your tea on a windowsill. after a few hours it’s steeped and you can put it in the fridge. tadaaa. 

fruit juice, soda pop, beer, and a lot of sports drinks like gatorade all dehydrate you, and in really hot weather they’re dangerous because people will drink them instead of water. drink an equal amount of water as anything with sugar. see prior point about sun tea. 

when you sweat you lose salt. so don’t feel bad about eating some junk food. 

freeze grapes. eat the grapes. repeat. 

get a hat with a brim. baseball caps are ok but wide brimmed hats are better because they shadow the back of your neck and that’s one less thing to have to worry about. 

don’t wear knit caps. just… no. 

you don’t get more sunburned because it’s hot, you get more sunburned because when it’s hot you wear less clothes. so don’t freak out.

if you don’t have AC you can put a bowl of ice behind a fan. this creates a swamp cooler, by pulling the air over the ice. also, put on a wet t-shirt and sit in front of it, and you’ll cool further by evaporation. 

speaking of evaporation, watch out if it’s humid. you don’t cool down from sweating as much when the air’s already saturated. drink more water, have more salt, and change your shirt a lot. 

heatstroke is serious shit, and kids and the elderly are prone to it. but whatever your age, if you feel nauseous, headachy, or short of breath, the heat’s getting to you. pour your water bottle over your head and go sit in the shade. keep an eye on friends and family as well. 

if someone stops sweating when they’re still out in the heat, that’s serious business and get them medical treatment as soon as possible. it’s a case of dehydration and/or heatstroke.

can I just add that after this picture my brief conversation with Lynn went something like this:

Lynn: Thank you guys so much for coming! Me: No, thank you for this all! Lynn: Aww! Yeah, of course! I hope you enjoy the show! Me: Thanks! You, too! Me: Me: Me: I mean, you are the show please enjoy it I'm sorry.

and then is whipped the fuck around and left. I was way too smitten.

Just because today is a terrible day, doesn’t mean tomorrow might not be the best day of your entire life. You just have to wake up and get there.

Happy 37th Birthday Pete Wentz! // June 5th, 1979

[pweeezy-blog]

today, on the day of his birth, let’s just talk about the trajectory of pete wentz’s adult life because sometimes I sit around and think about not accomplishing anything and dying and being sad but then I think about pete wentz and I feel okay. 

pete wentz is a mixed-race child of a midwestern suburban family who struggled desperately with mental illness his entire life. more than ten years ago he sat in his car in the parking lot of a best buy and attempted suicide but at the last minute called for help. and then he wrote a song about it. and then he wrote an album about it. and now he’s 36 years old with two beautiful children playing music with his best friends. 

in between all of that he did a lot of other things. as a teenager/young adult he was in multiple punk and hardcore bands that made him very well-known in the chicago hardcore scene. he started fall out boy as a way to have fun with music and talk about his feelings outside of the boundaries of that scene. he met patrick stump, which I assume he counts as a monumental event in his life and thus I am including it in this list. he wrote an album self-mythologizing fall out boy’s fame before they had their first radio hit. he started his own fashion line (yes, this dude) that partnered with DKNY. he published two books. he started his own record label and signed some of the biggest bands of the mid-to-late 2000s. he opened a bar in 3 major US cities just so he could hang out with his friends no matter what coast he was on. 

pete wentz worked very hard to manufacture and brand himself and he’s great at it. he knows how to sell an image and he knows how to do it even though his life and his mental health are falling apart. pete wentz had a very public marriage fall apart. pete wentz had half the people he grew up with turn their backs on him. pete wentz had a person he trusted leak personal pictures of him and the next day he showed up on TRL to make a joke out of it. pete wentz started a social networking site before facebook blew up. pete wentz designed and orchestrated a major political media campaign. pete wentz had his art shown at an art gallery in LA. pete wentz guest-starred on CSI and had a multi-episode arc on One Tree Hill. pete wentz has worked publicly and diligently with multiple charities. he attended rallies to protest against prop 8. he has written music for bands, movie soundtracks, and friends. He’s written comic books, designed action figures, and hosted a tv show on a major network. He owns his own production company with which he has made 2 short films and released one dvd. He was in the Degrassi movie, he did a guest appearance on Californication. He directed a music video for Train. everything on this list he did in between the lines of 24 and 36.

pete wentz is bipolar and was one of the first major public figures to ever talk about it publicly. pete wentz tweets his best friend every year for his birthday and writes blog posts for his fans. pete wentz writes songs for his fans and songs for his friends and songs for himself and who he used to be a decade ago in that best buy parking lot. pete wentz is 36 years old and there was probably a point in time, very likely when he was about my age, when he never thought he would be 36.  pete wentz was a sad kid from chicago and this year he inducted green day into the rock and roll hall of fame. pete wentz is in a band with his best friends and has two beautiful children and he’s not nearly as sad as he used to be and I hope he is having a very good birthday and eating a whole entire pizza with the people he loves.

Okay so many of you know about Ramadan, the month in the islamic calander where every muslim who’s not travelling, pregnant, breastfeeding, diabetic or on their period or is ill or elderly has to fast from dawn until sunset and refrain from smoking, sex, swearing, etc. Instead of sending everyone I follow what I would like them to tag as #nsfr (not safe for ramadan), here is a list of things to tag:

food

nudes/ nsfw

kissing/ pda

smoking

bad language

I’d appreciate it if people reblog this so every muslim doesn’t have to ask the 400+ blogs they follow to tag stuff. Thanks!

If I leave this world having changed one person’s mind about something, whether it’s finding self confidence, saving innocent lives, finding the power each of us has inside, etc…that’s all that matters to me. Awards, record sales, big tours, any of that is meaningless. Changing this world and everyone in it one person at a time is the only legacy worth worrying about to me.

France’s politicians and community leaders have criticised the “intolerable” violence against Paris’ Jewish community, after a pro-Palestinian rally led to the vandalizing and looting of Jewish businesses and the burning of cars.
