0⁰C = 32⁰F
5⁰C = 41⁰F
10⁰C = 50⁰F
15⁰C = 59⁰F
20⁰C = 68⁰F
25⁰C = 77⁰F
30⁰C = 86⁰F
35⁰C = 95⁰F
40⁰C = 104⁰F
45⁰C = 113⁰F
50⁰C = 122⁰F

after you do it a few times, you can memorize a few anchor points (10⁰C = 50⁰F, 25⁰C=77⁰F) and just add or subtract 9 or 5 in either direction. it's easy and it's fun

actually on the topic of fahrenheit. it can be daunting at first but when you know the trick it's almost trivial to convert from F to C in your head. it's just adding and subtracting.

what's the trick?

- adding 5⁰C = adding 9⁰F
- 0⁰C = 32⁰F

you just need to count up

according to my 10-second google search, this is a US vs rest-of-the-world thing. so it's comparable to how i am able to handle miles or fahrenheit just fine but i'm always converting them in my head.

i love how he embraces the dark, cynical and pessimistic parts of himself while still deliberately choosing positivity and optimism as the only way to survive. i think “los zurdos mueren antes” is a great example of that

“i have some peace and quiet, just like in the closet / nobody is coming to save me, just like in the closet” hits really hard. and feels very close of the “city mouse / country mouse” analogue analogy in chainsaw man

counter-intuitively, a light play session will actually make your muscles hurt less! (assuming it’s pain from overexertion the previous day)

i know this from experience because it also works on gym pain
