I do feel stupid for feeling this. India is currently on fire and also flooding iirc, by contrast here in 
it's not much hotter than recent years. I am lucky enough that we have a portable AC to run in the bedroom.
It's not the literal heat, our room is an ok temp honestly. But the heat seems to be breaking down my joints and bones, I feel like a decrepit corpse weighted with lead rn. This is the first time I'm feeling this too, didn't happen last year so my body is maybe decaying again.
I think it's heat exhaustion, I am making sure to drink and stuff but I just feel sluggish and sore, I am scarfing ibuprofen to little avail. Weh!
The air con is set to 28°C (you know, to save money) which is quite pleasant compared to 38°C and 65% humidity outside, but 2 days ago in Australia my heater was set to 26°C.
Bourgeoisie decadence
If I didn't live with white people I'd just wear more layers at home, it turns out the average Australian Anglo deals with the cold by way of ruining the planet some more.
Dang, that sucks. My household hates turning on the heater unless absolutely necessary, so I've been wearing a thermal sweater, sweatpants, and a blanket hoodie to keep warm.
Are you fucking insane
In my Florida apartment we usually did heat to 68 and AC to 78, which is 20C and 26C. That was the highest we could set the AC to that I wasn’t just sweating 24/7.
The white people I live with turn the heat up really high, idk why. I'm prepared to wear layers like a normal person but someone insists on having T shirt weather indoors in the middle of winter (hint: it's a white person from Queensland)
That’s fucking wild. Like, it’s been a requirement in most of my lease that we keep the AC at or below 78C to discourage mold growth
