i read in a newspaper article that, unlike winter weather, you never lose heat adaptation

when you are under five, your sweat gland density is set for life. if you don't grow up in hot weather, you never, ever get used to it

if you did grow up in the right conditions, those puppies are right there ready to go should you ever return to the heat

this sounds true to me because there are days here where im loving passing out from the heat (literally, i faint sometimes if i get too overheated, thanks spiro) and my coworkers are talking about what a nice day it is and they're gonna take their dogs for a run and work in the yard and I'm just like TAKE COVER IT'S 105 DEGREES JESUS CHRIST

Then you have a responsibility that no man has ever faced. You have your fear which could become reality, and you have Godzilla, which is reality.



honestly that just leaves me more confused??? like where was the massive turnaround and then eggs and now??? ??????

please do not claim that you would walk around in sf proper with shorts and a tshirt when it's 50 degrees and windy. maybe you would do that once or twice to prove to the other 7th graders how tough you are, but you will be freezing ur dong off.

also don't drink the bag of melted gummy bears on your dashboard lest they recongeal in your throat and kill you a little bit

this is the other thing. by people ask me "doesn't it get hot in wisconsin too?" and it's like, yeah but it's 95 degrees with 95 percent humidity so we all have AC and no one's loving dumb enough to go outside in that. our place here has no AC and we learned that the maximum number of portable units our awful wiring can support is 2. because our whole 2nd floor (ya know, with a bathroom and 3 bedrooms) is on a single circuit. mean while the living room, which has 2 outlets total, has a circuit per outlet.

dunno about this. i grew up in maine and after one summer in shenzhen with a broken air conditioner i got used to it and now im the only one here i know who doesn’t use ac in the summer even when it’s 95 and 95% humidity. when i first moved here i felt like i was dying

i absolutely do. i did all the pride marches in shorts and a tank top. and my dong was nice and warm stuck between my legs under 3 layers, thanks for your concern :)

one of my treasured memories is seeing the Brewers at Fenway Park back in 2014. We swept the Red Sox in their home opener and my wife and I got to work our way down to the front row for all the games because it was like 38 degrees after the sun goes down and apparently Boston people can't stick around for their team in that.

its pretty funny how places will be all "oh we don't need to get ac, it never gets hot here" as they have their 29th straight year of major heat waves each summer

ah yes the european approach to public planning

germany has been exceptionally bad at this. new trains with a supposed life of 20 to 30 years ahead of them come with acs that straight up fail in temperatures higher than upper 80s. old buildings cannot be replaced with new ones due to character and are expensively retrofitted with insulation, but nobody installs ac because you don't need it and also you can't. and on and on and on

we are currently in the third week of a heat wave and temperatures regularly reach beyond 95 F ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

reminder that body fat has a role in keeping you warm in colder weather. the less you have, the more susceptible you’ll be. someone who has 10% bodyfat is going to be freezing in weather someone at 20% would be more comfortable.
