    Summer used to be hot but it also used to be perfectly fine to sit in the shade and feel fine. Nowadays the temps even in the shade are over 30-35°.

    Love the summer. I love my skin not feeling cold as balls as soon as I step outside. Love not taking a cold ass shower in the morning before work. Love the sun being out later into the evening. Love doing outdoor shit. Swimming. Love the warm nights. Hanging out naked.

    Winter is the sad time.

    Winter makes my lupus act up terribly and I can hardly function. Summer heat nowakes my heart condition act up and I can hardly function. There’s a period of like 2 weeks in the spring and fall that are perfect

    I actually love the feeling of a hot wall of furnace hitting me when I go outside. Thick smell of life in the air, chlorophyll, baking earth. The hot blanket of the sun. The sweat, the sweaty men, the shirtless men. OK I am getting off track, we were talking about sweaty men I think?

    I much prefer autumn/winter. Only when it gets really slippery from frozen over streets it starts to suck, i can always dress warmer. I cant wear less than nothing, and it is still way too hot.

    Remember when humanity had not almost eradicated two seasons through climate change and you could be a spring or autumn lover?

    I love summer.
    I’d rather have 90° than 9°.
    I like having daylight past 4pm.
    I like seeing blue skies and the sun.
    I like being able to go outside without bundling up under five layers, and still being cold.
    I like not having to shovel my walks, snowblower my drive, scrape off my car, etc.
    I like swimming.
    I like seeing green trees, colorful flowers , bumblebees, and nature.
    I like taking my kid to the park so he can ride his skateboard.
    I like going to the beach.

    Fuck winter, man.

      This is why I love living in a place that has more than 2 seasons.

      Spring is short, but features temperatures in between 90 and 9, increasing daylight into the evening, blue skies and sun, moderate temperatures that don’t require that much in the way of bundling if at all, very little (if any) wintery precipitation, all the nature stuff at its earliest pristine moments, lovely parks, and the beach never goes away around here regardless of the season.

      Okay, so limited to no swimming in the spring because most water is still kinda chilly.

      We also have Fall. It tends to be longer than the Spring, but with fewer of the benefits.

    Right?
    I’m done with summer. Looking forward to that first early morning air nip with a dusting of frost on the ferns, presaging the arrival of snow.

      Unfortunately for us, the best times of the year are about half a month in the spring and half a month in the fall

      Cool. We don’t get snow anymore though… just gray weather, cold and humid enough to be uncomfortable but not enough to be fun.

        Honestly the cold grey weather is second best weather. Just after cold winter night, as far away as possible from the blazing ball of fusion in the sky blinding and boiling us alive. I’d love polar night.

    No cold seeping so deeply into my bones that it lodges itself there to radiate outward through my whole body so I can barely move.

    No aching dryness making it almost impossible to breathe.

    I know many aren’t built for heat but cold causes me near-debilitating pain and drains my soul of life. I’ll enjoy the warmth and sun while it lasts.

    Being a “summer lover” means I hate cold and love sunlight. It doesn’t mean I wanted the burning hellscape we’re all going to have to get used to. Wish we had listened to climate scientists and taken action…
