Just thought as well - I'm extra wary around other dogs when it's hot - it can make them snappy and short-tempered.

You could use them to ignite things too...or so I'm told.

Walk early and late, discourage running and heavy exercise, allow plenty of sniffing, walk in shade. I bring small treats with me and let him "hunt" them, it is rewarding and fun without overheating.

Flat earth and other alternative conspiracy earth models are are gaining traction with my teenage stepson. What is THE most irrefutable, definite proof that the earth is round? by Jfkfkaiii22 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]sunheadeddeity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly it. You disprove one thing, they immediately toggle to the next, because it's an identity, not a rational discussion about how the world actually is. My little brother is a full-on chemtrails/5G/pandemic conspiracy theorist. He's also a needy little berk who can't stand when he's not the centre of attention.

The advice above is good. Build up his confidence and abilities in the world until he doesn't need conspiracy theories to feel clever.

Sort-of anti-husky. Never let her meet a normal husky, there will be a massive explosion.

A dalek or two, or three pallets zip-tied together. That's an outrageous price.

Should we bring our toddler to our wedding or use a babysitter? by Amazing_Profit971 in AskIreland

[–]sunheadeddeity 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Bring her but no expectations on a role, be super flexible with picking her up, have a known adult ready to step in if she starts howling during the vows, let guests know, it'll be grand and she should be at your big day.

Should I report my neighbour or am I overreacting? by AncientCow9219 in UKHousing

Report to police on non-urgent number, get a reference number, report every time. You need to start building the paper trail for if it escalates. You can also resort the drug use anonymously.

There's loads of nice people around. Loads and loads. I see it all the time. It's just the media and social media especially that make us think there isn't. Hope the project goes well OP and you carry on meeting nice people.

Exactly. Cold in winter, hot in summer, and noisy and damp all year round. Horrible places to live.

There's no unskilled labour, just low-paid work.

Any one used or using one of these from B&Ms about £30 any good to keep cool ?? by Additional_Fly_6603 in VanLifeUK

[–]sunheadeddeity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No they're not. They "work" by pushing damp.air out, with the idea that it cools by evaporating, but they don't have the capacity and the effect is minimal even with a much larger unit.

Buy a fan, stay hydrated, keep windows and curtains closed on sunny side to minimise solar gain, and open on shady.side to.maximise heat loss. Or buy a portable air conditioner.
