Seriously, I Went To Summer Camp In Central Florida For Seven Years As A Teen, And Every Single Year

Seriously, I went to summer camp in central Florida for seven years as a teen, and every single year there were at least a few guys who ended up in the health lodge with dehydration or heat exhaustion because they ignored the signs. Dehydration, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke CAN and WILL happen to YOU if you don't take the appropriate precautions. Drink lots of cool water, and supplement that with ample electrolytes. Make sure you have regular shade breaks, with air conditioning if you can get it but with some form of airflow (hand fan will suffice) if not. Also important to note that plus-size people are often more susceptible to heat exhaustion! Please be careful, y'all.

if you are dealing with extreme heat or even just. moderate heat in your area right now. 80f/26c is when it starts getting toasty for a lot of people. if you are in a heat wave and you have not done yourself the favor of googling fucking "heat exhaustion symptoms" i am shaking you violently right now. look it up. burn the symptoms into your brain. heatstroke is no joke and it can and WILL sneak up on you before you're aware it's even an issue. ohh my god

I did more art :)

this is Song on the Wind, or just Song! she’s my tabaxi storm sorcerer that I’m playing in a text based D&D game with some friends of mine :) I love them so so so much and I’m really happy with how her design turned out!!

she’s also gotten several attacks on artfight so I think other people like her too XD

I'm in the process of giving the Diaspora star map a much-needed aesthetic overhaul. It's turning out pretty well so far! Here's the first stage: up to 10 ly from Sol.

Some notes:

all stars (four and eight points) signify an individual star, colored according to its spectral type.

eight-pointed stars are the homesuns of sapient species.

stars with rings have at least one planet. green rings indicate native life present; red rings indicate prior terraformation by the extinct Hemeran civilization.

the two other markers, one white dot and one white dot with an angled ring, indicate rogue interstellar planets.

the map is arranged by right ascension (celestial X coordinate) and distance, so the +/- number above each system is its declination (celestial Y coordinate).

the arrows at the center indicate the directions of the galactic core and rim, using the symbols of Sagittarius and Orion, respectively (although this map is aligned to right ascension which means the plane we're viewing is actually almost perpendicular to the galactic disk)

facing a dilemma. on the one hand, the tumblr app is storing way too much data and has taken up a sizable chunk of the storage on my phone (nearly 16gb for some reason). The only way to get rid of that is to delete the app and redownload it.

On the other hand, the current version of the tumblr app SUCKS ABSOLUTE ASS and I'd like my app to not SUCK ABSOLUTE ASS when I get it back, but I can only download the latest version from the app store (the one that SUCKS ABSOLUTE ASS).

hmm.

Second stage complete! Now featuring all systems out to 15 ly from Sol.

Additional notes:

The green-colored rogue planet, Murray-Callahan, is the only unbound interstellar object (UIO) known to harbor life.

The blue links in the network are systems and routes that are claimed by the United Nations of Humanity.

The yellow links in the network are systems and routes that are claimed by the Ra'na InterGlobal Council.

The turquoise links in the network are systems and routes that are claimed by the Worldtribe.

Grey links are neutral and under jurisdiction of the United Spacefaring Sophonts Coalition, usually either crucial hub systems or systems with carefully managed native life.
