    Until summer and then you want the heavy blanket because comfort but the heat makes it unbearable.

      Reminds me of the guy on Reddit who made himself a chainmail blanket. It had plenty of weight and the metal carried away heat pretty effectively. I guess if you add on a fan then you’ve basically turned it into a GPU cooler covering your whole body.

        To maximize this effect, sleep floating in a pool of mercury with a chain mail blanket atop.

      That’s when you blast the window AC unit at maximum chill directly at the bed all night.

      Depending on where one lives (and personal preference), you might enjoy sleeping under a blanket even during summer heat

      yuuuuup.

      Finally got up to 20c after many months of 10c weather. While it’s wonderful to go out in shorts and skirts again, I was sweating when I woke up this morning. Sadly time to move the big heavy blanket into the closet.

      Mine isn’t actually very warm. Like, it’s just tiny glass marbles inside. My other blanket that weighs maybe a tenth is much warmer, because it has actual fluffy stuffing inside…

      While not in the same weight class, if you can find a lacy crochet or knit blanket made of cotton yarn, you can get breathability with weight.

    My wife and I fight over this. I like a heavy blanket year round while she prefers to adapt with the seasons.

    I have some sort of pain condition and any pressure causes pain that can’t be ignored. So I can’t use heavy blankets anymore. It’s seriously devastating, I miss it so much.

Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren’t unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don’t rush mod actions. If a case doesn’t need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
