  • That’s a real winter where it’s enjoyable

    I have lived in areas where it’s -30 to -35 and 12+ inches of snow on the ground from November to may. Personally I did quite like it as well but it’s not to everyone’s taste. The first scenario I described is where I think the most people would enjoy it.



  • I love winter when it’s a real winter. I think most people who hate winter live in an area where they only get half winters.

    When each day is generally -5 to -10 degrees celsius, and you have a constant layer of snow around everywhere for a solid 2-3 months, is when winter is my favourite season of the year

    But when you have an average temperature of -1 degrees to 5 degrees, and you get random flurries on snow that melt and freeze constantly, then occasional freezing rain and hail, that’s when winter sucks.


  • Autumn is better than spring.

    Spring has too much melting snow from winter and hasn’t warmed up enough, so it’s always cold and damp.

    In autumn the ground is still bone dry from the what of the summer, so even when it rains it just soaks into the ground and you’re good. Then the heat of the summer is still around as it slowly cools into winter, so you still get warm days and cool nights.












  • I am curious what the logistics of a civil war would be, when the dividing issue is right wing vs left wing.

    Would it be state vs state? City vs city? Neighbour vs neighbour?

    I imagine a lot of people in red and blue cities would need to pack up and get the fuck out of Dodge if they are in a city that’s predominately the other side. Or even the state itself.

    Would cities mobilize their militarized police forces or would the police revolt in blue cities since they are mostly right wingers?

    It would probably be the federal government, probably the military, and probably the police forces, plus the wing citizens vs just the left wing citizens. I don’t see that ending well, since left wing citizens aren’t as likely to have guns either.
