    Electric blanket.

    I feel like a grandparent on the couch but fuck it’s nice and cozy when I haven’t turned the heat on and I’m watching tv.

      One of the scariest home appliances I know of.

      I prefer to go out of my way and buy a real wool blanket to gift or for myself.

          If you can ever manage to do so, get a rabbit pelt blanket. Even better if from a small home family farm.

          I once got introduced to one of these blankets by a person that rears rabbits for food and at some point decided it was time to stop wasting the pelts.

          After some experimentation with tanning at home, the person learned how to salt cure and never let another go to waste.

          It’s extremely soft and heavier than what is expected but not in a cumbersome way and develops a lot of heat in a very short time.
