    Go back and look at the daily high temperatures during those summers. 

    Why? I said it was hotter. But I am fine with the house at 85 or sitting in the river.

    Oh, and drink tea. Not iced tea. warm tea. It helps.

    You do realize this is the Blastfurnace, not Weather Stoicism, thread. Yes??

    Yes I do. I also remember going to class during summer on the six pack and it being hot as shit. And friends living in Dorms with no AC.

    I will stay out of this thread.

    This isn’t the thread for you. 

    Yeah, it is. I like to know about the weather. Sorry, but 108 ain't gonna kill you if you know how to deal with it. Drink water/beer. Don't wear a shitty suit. Open windows at night. Use fans.

    Tuareg's are laughing at us.

    Again, yes it is getting hotter earlier. So we can bitch or deal with it. I will deal with it.

    Bunch of Hank Hills on this thread.

    Yeah, as has been noted here before, it ain't the "hot" that's a problem.  It's the "hotter, for a lot longer" that's a problem.  As just one example, Austin's long-term average number of triple digit days is 15.  The last 30 years?  That's nearly fucking DOUBLED to 29.

    I can handle a few 100 degree days, I grew up in a state that had a few 100 degree days.  It's the "two fucking months straight of them, and not just 100 degrees, but 108 every fucking day for long stretches" that fucks us.  Kind of like how I can handle banging my shin against the furniture every once in a while, but would get pissed off if someone wacked me in the shins every fucking day for a month.

    Yeah, I get it. But most of the earth is getting hotter. I will tell boy to go for your shins.

  5. JFC, put your fucking pants on Nancy.

    Yeah, it is Texas. it gets hot. Are you a roofer? Landscaper? If no, shut up, learn to live in a hot climate, and deal with it. Or move to Colorado.

    Europe is mostly off of Russian oil and gas and its defense industries are picking up orders and new customers, and they are much more unified than five years ago, including Finland and Sweden going all in with NATO. Eastern Europe is finding its footing in the EU and Poland is moving towards being top dog or very close to it - Germany abdicated its role and Poland easily filled that vacuum.

    Watch the Serbs.

    While I agree that the photos shouldn’t be spoilered. I still wish I hadn’t looked at them. I already had a relatively vivid idea of what happened, and imagined what it might have looked like, due to stories I’ve heard and the actual accounts I’ve read. But these made it so much more real to me. Did anyone see the little headband? I can barely see my screen as I type this. feel like I’m going to be fucking sick.

    You should be sick. We all should. Sadly enough of our fellow citizens and leaders are not.
