  1. Yeah the heat this year is NO joke. I was out all day this weekend and wound up with a cracking headache and a racing pulse later on. Turned out to be heatstroke. I thought drinking Aquarius and using a Parasol would be fine. It wasn’t. Only gonna get worse… 😭

  2. Yeah this year has been complete bullshit. I’ve been sweating my ass off every day since about late April and it’s now September.

    I used to get frustrated by prolonged summers but it’s just so the norm now that I don’t even care any more and expect half the year to be shit hot.

  3. Alternative title: this is the coldest summer compared to future summers into … _checks notes_ … uhhhh a long time
