really whats interesting to me is that if u stay involved in a fandom long enough u get an evolution of scrolling from: ooh! - ooh! - ooh! - OH i didn't realise this was a trope - ooh! - OH - ooh! - ooh!!

to smth more like: read that - read that - oh LOOK it's my mutual - omg that one looks SO GOOD i love the trope subversion - wrote that - read that - oh my friends have been screaming about this one - wrote that - oh LOOK it's my mutual - read that - FRESH MEAT LETS GO SAY HELLO and its

SO beautiful and joyous. being a member of a community is fun!!!!! being so familiar with a tiny corner of the internet is fascinating!!!!! seeing the connections between yourself and other people is crazy cool!!!! we're all here on the web page together!!!! i see you and i love you!!!!!!

#for real though #I love the way communities build in fandoms #I'm not very active in the LU fandom but I'm always here lurking #and it is so awesome to watch a bunch of people whos art I've been following for years #grow and expand and get better at there craft #wow. actually crazy that I can say Ive been here for years wild revelations Im having this morning #anyways always find your little forner of fandom and make your friends and just have a good time #its also always awesome because the longer your in a fandom you realize there's more to explore #like. I love my boy Legend. but I saw a really good analysis of Four recently #and like. I have a whole new rabbit hole to go down about four aa well #I dont know I'm rambling now #I just think its cool to see how fandoms grow and evolve and watching everyone grow themselves #just keep having fun and doing whatever you want to forever #we're all just here to have a good time #linked universe #i feel this way for a couple of fandoms but this isnt about them rn

That is super fucking unsafe. Genuinely, first step, talk to someone in charge. I'd start collecting evidence, pictures of thermostats, any conversations with that team where they refuse to turn of the heat, ect. Get something to show for the fact that this is super unsafe.

Also, go to someone above the facilities team that can get them to knock that shit off. If you have a Union, go there, they will fight for you to have better working conditions. If not, HR is another option, upper management, ect. Make this their problem, and chances are they might help you take care of it.

If not, then this sounds like something you can cause legal trouble for. This is where that evidence comes in. I did some quick searching, OSHA does have specific heat related guidelines. I'm pretty sure they also have anonymous reporting and representative contacts on their website. Go to them, they will go to bat for you.

However, that all might take some time. Therefore, some day to day some desert dweller tips:

Cold drinks. Hydrate hydrate hydrate, you get dehydrated a lot faster than you think in the heat, and more water helps cool you down via sweat. Other drinks are good too, smoothies, tea, ect, helps lower your temperature.

Cover windows if you can. Close the blinds, pull the curtains, hang up towels and blankets if you need. Keep that greenhouse effect to a minimum.

If your windows open, something I've heard of people doing is putting damp, cold cloths over open windows. Helps cool a breeze coming in, which could help cool the room.

Light, loose clothing. Tank tops and shorts are always a recommend, and keeping them loose gives you more airflow for cooling.

Stick some wet towels in the freezer. That way, you can wrap them around your neck later. There's arteries there, cooling those down will get you cooler the fastest.

A continuation, if you have a light jacket/button up, throw that in the freezer too. Once its cold, crunch it up enough to be able to put it on. Can do it with tank tops/shirts as well, but in a workplace setting, a really light cover shirt/jacket might be best.

Get a fan if you can. Circulating air is always helpful. Any type of portable fan can help, even if its from home.

Unplug anything that isn't necessary. Electricity can cause a lot of heat output, (Thats why server rooms need to have A/C's otherwise they overheat). If there are things you can unplug, I'd recommend, even if it only helps a little.

Run your hair under cool water. Keeps your head cold, and some of that water will run off instead of sweat, keeping you cold without loosing as much water yourself.

Saw this in my weather news. Seriously, y'all, I beg of you to take care of yourself and those around you in these hellish days.

@thatdisasterauthor This feels up your alley, any tips on dealing with extreme heat?

#Heat is no joke. I will always spread any knowledge I have on the subject.#This shit will kill you. Be safe. Look up the signs of heatstroke and heat exhaustion #I've been there before. It sneaks up on you. You've got to be aware of that shit before you get worse.#Prev I am so fucking sorry that your company is like that #I hope with everything that your able to get something done about that situation #extreme heat

Okay but hear me out. Linked Universe but instead of like, actual LoZ games its just a bunch of our LU Link OC's doing their own stupid adventure together. The "B-Team" if you will.

Its still drawn in a comic style, except either A: Everyone passes around a save file, or B (More Appealing) : Whiteboard Fox or Magma or some shared art website and everyone just does it together. Terrible mish-mash of art styles but it would be so fun

IDK. I just think we all should play with our dolls together more

#Mmm its late I'm tired this probably doesn't make any sense #idk man if people think its a fun idea maybe I'll do something with it. Get some people together #I just think it would be fun to play with the LoZ ocs with other people #like genuinely I think this would be so fun #rhys rambles

Cohabitation is vacuuming up that mf and dumping it outside so you can watch that Daddy Long-Leg skitter to freedom, all while whimpering and crying like a little bitch

Big spider on wall afraid to move help

#All of these were different instances of spiders btw #and I don't even live in Australia this is bullshit #Correction my mother vacuumed up the spider for me #but it reads better like this #rhys rambles #rhys is tormented by spiders again

Me: I'm not gonna do very much for this animatic, I'm just getting back in the swing of things, its gonna be more of a rough animatic rather than actually animated Me, a few days later:

#the nefarious timeline #Animation #It calls my name #That is like. Less than 10 seconds of footage #Free me from this prison of my own making #LU fandom we are eating soon #If I actually finish this one that is #Of Everlong by the Crane Wives my beloved #rhys rambles

Everytime I see a "I hate when people characterize X character in this way" post I take intense psychic damage.

#Me too buddy me too #General reminder that the way to see more of what you want is to encourage and support people to make what you want to see #Its not to tear down other people who make things you don't like #Don't be a dick #People who make fan content are still people. treat them as such #Even if you're not trying to be mean to 'X' in particular. Or mean at all #It'll probably still hurt #I stopped writing for LU for a while because people kept going “Oh you can't characterize X in this way”#Not to my face. Often it wasn't even characterizations I was writing #but it did make myself and others feel like they weren't good enough to be making fan content for a thing they enjoyed #Knock that shit off and don't be pricks because you don't like something about a story #C'mon yall. What happened to don't like don't read #Also its okay if how you interpret something is different than how others interpret it #Every exploration of a character and every different characterization of a character has a right to be #even if you don't like it #Daily reminder for everyone to do whatever the hell you want forever #and that “because I want to” is as good a reason as any to make fan content #rhys rambles

FLOOR IS SLANTED UNDER FEET

Girl help I accidentally fed my paranoia by daydreaming about what makes me nervous and analyzing my own fears too logically, leading me too accidentally spiral into rationalizing irrational fears and now I am to afraid to move from my chair because The Ghosts

#OooooHh #I am getting to a state where my brain is interpreting flat surface as slanted and I almost lost my fucking balance #I am going to go lay on the floor of my shower until clean now #And then sleep #Mm #I am tired and forgot to take my meds and I'm pretty sure theres something else going on #So like bed time probably #Bi annual “Rhys Live Posts about loosing it for some reason or another”#rhys rambles

#How does a person #Who's brain primarily relies on logic and reasoning to understand the world #Trick themselves into being paranoid #because “The Demon is going to get me if I move because its waiting for me to see it before it strikes.”#Shaking my brain like an Etch-A-Sketch trying to get rid of The Bad Feeling™#Girl I just want to go shower why are we afraid of the 5 foot long hallway now #There's no demon on the ceiling go brush your teeth #FUCK ME #rhys rambles
