So how about we all share what measures everyone is taking to deal with this shit while others continue to dismiss the ongoing evidence of climate change!

Tower fan blowing hot air out the window. It's still hot, but this is the most effective cooling method I've achieved in my house.

Also, cold water on the wrists, face and neck right before bed.

25° where I am, its just about bearable. I just stay out of the sun as much as possible during the day.

I just opened one of my upper windows for the first time ever (since they got newly fitted) and some git outside actually cheered. But yes it's crazy hot in here right now, time to get an AC methinks if it continues like this...there's sweat just dripping from the back of my hair down my neck like I'm sat inside a sauna. :lol:

Any recommendations? Still sitting stubbornly at 31° here.

I'm just staying inside with the windows open, grimacing from within my shadowed walls at the golden disc that bathes the earth outside with its horrid radiance.
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

I'm kinda desperate at this point just to feel some cool air in here.

Loving it personally. Been a great year for the weather so far.
