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.

I FUCKING LOVE PUTTING THE STINK GOOP ALL OVER MY BODY EVERY 15 MINUTES AND HAVING AN UNCOMFORTABLE CRUSTY CARAPACE SO I DON'T ACQUIRE CRAB DISEASE

For any good farm you have to prep, vitamin D farm is no exception.

The sun is a deadly lazer

So is oxygen, but you gotta keep breathing.

The sun at least also makes you happy.

I like feeling the cold around me while protecting my vitals from it.

As I'm sure you've heard and maybe even contemplated, I can generally warm myself up. It's a lot harder to cool myself down, at least past a certain point.

There's more of a comfy-ness to being enveloped by warmth when its cold out.

Solutions to being too cold - put on more layers, get a hot beverage, do some light exercise

Solutions to being too hot - get to some AC, splash water on yourself, take off layers

The problem is that the first set of solutions is generally more accessible and work-friendly. I can't take off my shirt on a site visit for work (or even wear shorts, and being in damp sweaty clothes is miserable compared to being chilly and needing to warm up.

I love wearing 10kg of clothes just to stay warm while I'm outside

I prefer being outside in cold weather. If I had my druthers I'd keep my house at 60 degrees in the winter and bundle up. I've lived in a house where I could wake up and see my breath in my own bedroom on especially cold days and it was glorious.

Yeah, but I'm too poor for AC so the summer is all suffering. Climate change is making it worse and worse and I hate the whole world more and more.

Those people can speak for themselves. I like getting plastered then walking around shirtless in below freezing temps. Makes me feel alive.

I swear shorts and t-shirt until about 5 degrees C, love it.

OP thinks sunny days are too hard. I have no idea how he survives rainy days. A bit of snow would kill him instantly.

I only disagree with the drinking water one to be honest. The others I find legitimately annoying. I still wear sunscreen, but only because sunburn is even worse

I hate sunscreen, the only thing worse than being sweaty all day is being sweaty and oily and sticky.

Thanks for the advice but still, 40°c is a long way above what I'm confy with. Somewhere around 30°c I'd preferably just lie down and sleep till the summer is over. Also, you guys really love your hats, do you? I know a Australian guy who was constantly wearing his sunhat year around (yes, even when it's dark outside 90% of the time) for multiple years after moving to Sweden.

The trick is to wear one layer that's gonna absorb the sweat and another layer for looking good. Bamboo fibre wifebeater with colourful short sleeve shirts got me through 45+ °C 90% h. no bother.

I'm writing this because I started with just the shirt, and two layers seems counter intuitive, but it's actually a lot more comfortable and better looking (fewer sweat stains)

Granted I think my heat intoletance is abnormal and when I get a doctor that doesn't dismiss it out of hand I want to see if there's a reason, but simply sitting in my chair at my pc in 22°C in t shirt and shorts is uncomfortably warm for me. 40 is just awful. Then again I barely notice a difference for anything above ~28, it's all horrible.

Just live in the Mountain West - Colorado, Arizona, Utah. The air is so dry it actively mummifies you every day of the year.

There is no hell quite like 100/100.

The air is hot water. You are hot water. There is no relief. You don't even want to breathe.

Humidity sucks.

In the fall we usually get a few hours of rain and then it clears away to cloud or sun and that's my favourite weather.

You mean 24-28C so you don't get sick from low temperature?

Some of us dwell in caves.

Life in a northern climate at this time of year, my dude. Already had to bust out the chapstick from how dry it's been.

This happens pretty frequently for a lot of people, especially if it's a super dry climate.

The best chapstick is enough water.

Anon understands at most four, maaaybe five words of your sentence. The fewer the letters, the better. “With, sun, in, of, and it”, and even that is a legitimate struggle.
