    My area has mostly stopped getting snowfalls this-is-fine

    When i was a kid, we used to build snowmen every winter. Just rolled up giant balls of the stuff and stacked them in the garden. Now we have maybe two days per winter where it doesn’t melt to grey slush immediately. It’s gotten to the point where i immediately go out and take a walk when we get snow and i have time because i just love snow. The way it makes the light stray, blankets the world, makes the air taste so fresh and icy, muffles every sound besides the creaking under my boots. And apparently, now it can also kill techbros.
