Summer really is the worst.

Here's three months or so where it's so stupidly hot you can't even sleep properly at night, and if you want to go outside you have to smother yourself in goo repeatedly because the sky will kill you. Also there are millions of what are essentially flying dirty syringes who's only purpose is to steal your blood that are seeking you out constantly. And not only do they steal your blood, the place where they stole it from will turn red and itch like crazy for no discernible purpose other than fuck you presumably. You can sort of keep these away by smothering yourself in a second type of goo that's probably poison of some sort.

Good thing we invented housing so we can avoid this right? It would be, except that as soon as it starts everybody seems determined to spend every second of it outside, and becomes fixated on making everyone else be outside too. There also seems to be some connection with sunshine and everyone wanting to be as loud as humanly possible.

I genuinely wish I could just hibernate like a bear through summers lol, as soon as June 1st hits just peace out until September.
