I was a reverse bear in high school. I don't like the heat, so I would sleep most of the summer when I was off school.

Humans used to do nothing but sleep, eat, tell stories, fix and mend things, and sleep some more during winter.
Capitalism put an end to that.

Do you mean the Neolithic revolution?

[–] mech@feddit.org 5 points 2 days ago

No. I mean the industrial revolution.
Before that, very little economic activity or work happened during winter.
With nothing to do in the fields, very little artificial light, usually only the kitchen being heated, and warm clothes unaffordable for most, there was little you could do.

Bears are cool. Some of them, while still having a typical bear anatomy, also randomly decided to change their fur into a cute black and white pattern and be vegan and only eat bamboo shoots.

A group of them is called an embarrassment.

Winter is the best time to finish my game queue

Polar bears don't. Griz have been known to wake and wander too.

Some frogs freeze solid and defrost just fine.

they dont actually hibernate, its more closer to a torpor. SQUIRRELS, insects hibernate. you literally cant wake up up a hibernating animal.

🎵Bears don't fall asleep all winter
🎵That was just hyperbole
🎶Told to us, when we were younger
🎶A lie told universally
🎵To an entire generation
🎵For seamingly no reason why
🎶It's our turn for grand deception
🎶Tell the youth the following lies:
🎵Cocaine was invented by salmon
🎵Frogs brain is the main ingredient in milk
🎶And freight trains are powered by llamas
🎶Iguanas wear camouflage pajamas
🎵 underneath they all got regular skin
Well, I bet you didn't know that
