  • Luckily you don’t need to go to the subreddit to measure yourself, I’m constantly talking to women whenever I’m able to bring it up organically. I fucking hate what Victoria’s Secret has done to women and bras. One day I swear I’m going to stand in front of one of their stores and hand out measuring tapes and a paper with the website on it. I became such a huge advocate after learning my real bra size. I cried when I tried on my first H cup because I was finally comfortable and everything was in place.


  • As a woman who has had tons of trouble with bras, I highly recommend abrathatfits.org. It has been a game changer. The subreddit has some great resources as well (not sure if that’s changed since the protests though). But anyways, the majority of women are wearing the wrong size bra and don’t realize it. I went from a DD to an H. I can wear my bra all day and barely notice it. If you’re breastfeeding I suggest measuring when you’re half full. That’s what I did when I was breastfeeding and got the best results.








  • Yeah, I was using getting into your car as an example because our burn center has to put out a warning every year due to people literally burning their hand off getting into their car. Like I said, my state regularly gets to 120 in the summer. Texas rarely gets that hot. I’ve already stated in my previous comment that you’d need to drink more water, but it’s not going to fucking kill you. Hell, during summer we are lucky if it gets below 105 at night. You’re being really dramatic with the whole “my shirt is soaked in sweat!!” When you obviously live in a humid area. It being 70 in Florida will get you the same results. Like seriously, 100 ain’t shit, yeah drink more water, but you don’t need to stop every 2 minutes for a water break. 110 here means construction crews stop working at 2 instead of 6, and no there are no 10-15 increments of working. You shouldn’t only be drinking water, which will make you sick, anyways. You should also have an intake of oral salts to balance everything out. And it will prolong your need for water. And for the record, I was homeless for years so I have literally lived in the heat and seen countless people die from exposure. No one ever died when it was 100 out.


  • There was a war movie and in one scene they were handing out gear to the troops and one guy was like “Is there anything good?” or something along those lines and someone responded “It’s from the Army, NOPE!” And to this day whenever I think about it I chuckle a bit.



  • Just an fyi, 100F is not “unsafe without counter measures” level of hot. That would be around 115+F. I say this as someone from a city that regularly hits 120F during the summer. 100 you can still get in your car, 115+ you need to wear gloves or else you’ll get 3rd degree burns. 100 have to buy pizza for lunch, 115+ just bake a pizza in your car.
