I just spent far too long looking for that old tumblr meme of Peter from family guy in his death pose, haphazardly surrounded by jpegs of fans.

Real talk though, get a flat, hard surface to sleep on that won't hold heat.

A wooden table is good but a board of mdf or something placed on top of your bed will work just as well. If you have the space and the right sort of bed, move your mattress off the bed and place the board directly on the slats, air flow under the bed will aid cooling. Board on top of the mattress works too though but it holds a bit more heat and can get a bit wobbly if you're a restless sleeper.

Cover the table/board with a bamboo/linen/cotton flat woven (not fluffy) blanket/sheet, and sleep with a bunch of fans pointed at your body.

A dehumidifier in the room will also really, really help too.

Bamboo and linen fabrics won't hold as much moisture as cotton does but if you're under a bunch of fans and on a hard surface, any sweat should evaporate fairly easily and cotton is easiest and cheapest to find usually.

Also remember that heat rises and buildings trap heat, so if you are living on any floors above ground level, sleeping on the floor will be hotter than sleeping a few feet above it as the room below will have been heating up all day and the floor will be radiating heat.

Having the window open, with one fan pointing at it and one pointing away from it will help circulate air into the room and get some of the heat out. If you have two windows this is easier as you can have a fan at each one, and bonus cooling points if they are on different walls as you can get a draft going.

If you have enough fans going bird song and car noise gets drowned out so it's not as much of a problem. Also a bit of vaseline in your nose will stop it drying out.

I read it as 'bastards' twice (skim, then slightly slower skim) before going back to really look at it as it felt off. If it worked better as a portmanteau it would make a lot of sense in this context but it's too garbled to look intentional.

6. I can't see very well out of one eye, so keep it closed so I can see my phone better without it interfering with my vision because I'm too hot and lazy to move out of the fan blast radius and find my glasses.

The user interface with SLRPNK is good, if you're still looking. I joined it just before kbin died and it's done a pretty good job filling the hole reddit left, better than kbin anyway.

I tried to get the hang of blahaj.zone while SLRPNK was down recently and just couldn't with how follow people/profile centric it is, or how awkward it was finding posts I'm interested in. I liked the cat widget though, reminded me of that ancient Felix browser add on.

Every day my existence feels more and more like complicity. This hellworld can't end soon enough.

I hope this email finds you in a well
