Took a walk out in the -10F (around -30F with windchill) and got so many whumpy ideas... frostbite and hypothermia my beloved.
#i can't recommend doing the same in good conscience#especially since lots of folks aren't used to this kind of cold#I have a lot of very expensive cold weather gear and live up north where this is normal#but I took my hand out of my glove for about 45 seconds to take some photos#and couldn't feel my fingers for about 30 minutes afterwards#the cold air burns your lungs and stings your skin#warming back up is like your body has been lit on fire#snow starts to squeak in this distinct way that's almost like styrofoam#everything is brighter and clearer#it's beautiful and terrifying and can be so painful#even pulling my face out of my scarf the first time just hurt! that first gasp of unfiltered air... phew#now imagine whumpee out there for a few minutes... or longer... permanent damage almost guaranteed#warming back up is an agony all of its own... but that's what whumpee wanted isn't it?#wah I'm so rambly rn
