  Not all of us carry that much fat around ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    How does that prevent you from wearing warm clothes?

  To a point, yeah. But when it’s -40 outside, heating to 18 or 21 doesn’t make much of a difference energy wise.

  Okay, I need some help here, where on earth can I find comfy hot inner slippers that doesn’t disintegrate after a year or two?

      Kind of ugly and expensive, is the quality still there?

    Dunno if these fit your needs, but this is the pair I have. Had them for maybe 6 or 7 years (light use, mostly just wear them indoors) and they’re in great shape. Solid rubber sole, super warm, very comfy. I feel like they run small (I had to get a size up from my usual). Only gripe is that they had a tag on the inside that was tough to cut out cleanly.

    I just have a pair of hiking boots that I wear indoors. I have them laced up very loose so that I can just pull them on without undoing the laces, almost like slippers. They’re very warm and comfy.

      That works, but I don’t use shoes indoors so that would be kind of weird.

  I’ve lived in my current place for over 10 years, and so don’t actually know if the heater works.

  Then again, I live in Texas (and was away from home for the big freezes we had in 2021 and 2023), so it’s rarely an issue.

  But air conditioning is a different story. I can only trove so much clothing, and without air conditioning my little trailer home gets to like 120 degrees in the summer.

  Just embrace the cold and build up your brown fat which burns calories to keep you warm so you can eat pizza all day and stay skinny*.

    If you have south or west facing windows:

    Metallized privacy films have made a big difference in my home. For heat protection, they should be the weather resistant kind and applied to the outside of the window. (They should be removable without leaving any residue)

    If you want to try this method out first: Stick a few space blankets in front of the windows. Looks like shit, but it’s a cheap way to test whether this method might work for you.

  yeah unless you’re drying off the thermostat should never be above like 58 for heating. Layers fix everything else

  A touque as well. You lose most of your heat through your head. It’s easy enough to take off and put in your pocket if you get too warm, then put back on if you feel like you’re getting cold.

  • frayedpickles@lemmy.cafe ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Sadly not accurate, except about touques being sexy and convenient

    • Mongostein@lemmy.ca ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Well, maybe my mom just told me that to make sure I wore a touque. ;)

      I’m bald now, so it made sense.
