We're not setup for hot weather, so we resort to all kinds of things to keep us and our homes cool.

Apart from ordering fans from Amazon, what else have you been doing to keep cool?

If your AC

Lol, what AC?

Hang out in the basement

Lol, what basement?

Upgrade your roof / windows

Lol, with what money?

I say this in jest really, I appreciate the list. Your point about insulation has already made national news due to the protest group Insulate Britain attempting to push the government into insulating all social housing. Instead the government clamped down on the right to protest.

Do you know what they're really worried about with global warming? Social unrest as people inevitably start starving and dying.

They don't give a fuck that you're dying, just that you might cause "issues" as more people do.

You're sending me words so you either have hands or a mouth that's ready to work. Go earn it. /s

Ah, so that's why I have you tagged in red as "Twat".

I couldn't remember why and chose to ignore it, I see now that was a silly thing to do.

You got a mouth that doesn't stop so I don't get why you don't have money dude.
