I tried Googling "how does pippi longstocking not suffocate" but it just gave me pages about the series' classic mid-century Swedish racism

    You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    To be fair, you probably can't do lots of things Pippi Longstocking can do.

    imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i was in the habit of sleeping with my head under the covers for warmth for several years, it is survivable, idk maybe i was lucky

    i assume Longstocking just breathes more strongly than most people or something

    Pippi Longstocking does everything more strongly than most people, so that's plausible.

    I personally did not find it survivable, hence why I'm dead

    I suppose the real answer is that these books practically run on nonsense, and in most regards, Pippi being able to sleep with her head under a blanket is probably one of the less absurd aspects.

    But I like questioning things.

    It's really not hard to sleep under the covers and breathe.  It's not like fabric is airtight or anything.  I do it all the time in winter to insulate heat better and skimp on heating bills

    ^ I'd think that would be harder, with the exhalation port blowing against the blanket in your face.  Noisy and cold.
