Except for baby, kids, convalescente people, handicap people, eldery, and people with a very cold floor and wall that offset the overall room temperature.
This is just extrastrong ableism.

I won't go into detail because it's personal and a bit gross, but adding on layers doesn't always work for me due to a disability. I just become even more uncomfortable, and my extremities are still in pain...

Something that really should be used more is using those rubber hot water bottles. it won't heat your whole room, but it's great when paired with a blanket.

[–] Zombie@feddit.uk 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

And risk burning yourself when the rubber wears out in 3 years and bursts?

Nah, get yourself one of those oat-filled microwavable teddies. Does the same job but with less risk of severe burns and doesn't need replaced every few years.

I wish I had control of the thermostat. It would be 60° year round.

Edit: Forgot Europe exists 60°F = 15.56°C

Also does any one still call it centigrade?

Why is everyone in this thread Richard Byrd?

Most people I know wear t-shirts at home in winter and heat up the house to compensate, wasting energy. This meme is clearly aimed at them.

If you live in arctic conditions, then you probably already wear more than a shirt, even at home. If not, then feel adressed as well.

And to the many people who are currently raising their babies at home: Scandinavian practices be damned. I understand that it's not too practical to regularly wrap up your baby so that they can withstand freezing conditions. Fine. Turn up the damn thermostat. You already have a screaming infant at your hands.

Everyone else: stfu.

haven’t seen a shitpost hit a nerve this hard in a while, hahaha!

You can't put sweaters on pets

You need to have one room You can heat if needed to keep the pet in if it's going to get cold

Zonal heating what what. My home office is the cat office during the day.

I got sick of wearing cheap jackets and still being cold and/or having them fall apart super quick, so I splurged on a Carhartt jacket. So worth it. This thing is toasty as fuck, water proof and could probably withstand a knife attack.

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

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