    Default Things you miss about summer

    For me it is swimming and watermelon. Are there things you will miss now that it is over?
    By having no family … I inherited the family of humanity.
    By having no possessions … I have possessed all.
    By rejecting the love of one … I received the love of all.
    By surrendering my life to the revolution … I found eternal life.

    I do not miss anything about the summer and I am glad summer is over. I hate the heat and warmth. Nothing good comes out of summer. Go Winter!

    There is nothing pleasant about the cold, snow, blizzards or winter.

    We are still in the high 90s in Louisiana. It has cooled down a bit for 100 plus though.

    "Her development, her freedom, her independence must come from and through herself. First, by asserting herself as a personality, and not as a sex commodity. Second, by refusing the right to anyone over her body; by refusing to bear children unless she wants them; by refusing to become a servant to God, the State, society, the husband, the family, etc. ... by freeing herself from the fear of public opinion and public condemnation. Only that, and not the ballot, will set woman free, will make her a force hitherto unknown in the world, a force for real love, for peace, for harmony; a force of divine fire, of life-giving; a creator of free men and women."

    Spending two summers, as a teenager who just graduated university, living at the lake, at my job I worked with my best friends, we hung every night. Didn't probably even know what mental illness was at that point in my life. Literally not a care in the world and no other decisions then 'should we go to the pub tonight, or just party at the cabin and jam'.

    Edit: I guess those are the summers I miss specifically, not just things about summer in general.

    My memories of my dad taking me to the park when I was a little kid (15 years later) are still some of the best memories of my childhood. What little kid doesn't want to go to the park? Especially when they have a parent who will play with them.

    I might have to fly south for the winter. PA weather is awful, it goes from blazing hot (wonderful summer) to chilly as fuck and randomly rainy every 5 seconds (fall, which lasts about 3 weeks) to being cold as fucking fuck new ice age (winter) back to rainy every 5 seconds and chilly (second fall aka spring) then finally arriving at the only 3 tolerable months in this state (glorious summer). It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't work outside but last year there were days were I thought I was going to die and I mean, you can't even plan an outfit, it could be nice and pretty one second then you're like motherfuck and it starts pouring the rain down or there is a massive cold front or what have you.

    I don't know what you lucky wankers are on about, but summer is still raging hardcore down here. Like it's gonna be in the low 90's all week here (That's around 32 C for you non-American lot), plus the usual like 100% humidity, maybe a bit less.

    But when it does finally sod off I ain't gonna miss a thing.
