Now this is a die-hard fan!

If anyone wants to play with this stuff, there’s a survival _game_ by @hinterland.bsky.social called “The Long Dark” set in northern Canada it drops you into the woods in basically decent light winter street clothes.

If you’re unlucky & it starts you at night, you’re unlikely to make it to morning.
