i wish you cooler weather, shade and a load of hydration! 🤞
i choose to believe that the people who can handle this weather are only a vocal minority, because all the people who can't handle it are staying indoors and lying down on cooling mats / cold tile floors all day 🫠😭
spring and autumn are my time to shine, but i need to hibernate and aestivate, lol
GRMA a chara. You know, I prefer your way of looking at it. I had assumed we had all died off from natural selection :D
I must look into cooling mats. Never heard of them before - thanks!
we might still die of this heat yet, but there are dozens of us, dozens! :P
idek if they make cooling mats for humans, lol. i was getting some from petstop for my dogs and got a spare one for me 🤣
We'll be remembered fondly as the gentiles, who sadly did not evolve quickly enough to keep up with fossil fuel emissions.
Ah, the YouTube search results is all about dog mats and I was wondering what was up with that. I'm happy to buy myself a collar too if that helps :D
nahh, the trick is to plant trees whenever & wherever possible, to reforest ireland's rainforest! when they're all grown up, we'll finally have some shade outdoors, flood prevention, windbreaks, habitats for wildlife, etc etc 💪
hah! it might be silly, but it's way more convienient and comfy than sticking my feet in a basin of water all the time, lol
I'm a tree fanatic. I'd like to see us back at 80% tree coverage again.
