When you want the bugs shot directly into your face
If only we still had bugs.
But we don't, and that should fucking terrify everybody.
If only more people used redneck air conditioning. And I'm not kidding I'm going to school for HVAC cause I don't want to starve in the street. Do y'all understand how bad this shit is?? It was supposed to be a medical device and y'all mofos set that shit to 65 to sleep. I'm not bougie and I understand that the 1% does most of the polluting but we need to change how we live
Problem is, I moved somewhere cold so I wouldn't have to run the AC, and now summers here are just as hot as they were where I grew up. I can't take the heat but it seems to be following me wherever I go.
I'm not saying people shouldn't use AC but we should focus more on building homes to stay cool. Living spaces used to be designed with airflow in mind and windows were constructed to optimize capturing the breeze. Window tech has come a long way as far as heat rejection but awnings used to be everywhere. People focus too much on looks vs functionality and tbh modern houses are ugly as hell imo. AC should be used in tandem with all of the other things we've learned. I go to houses all the time that have the windows that don't work or have been nailed closed with no ceiling fans and it blows my mind. I live in Texas so I get escaping to the north. We're expecting some nasty weather so everyone is currently panic buying everything, I bet you miss that stuff lol
Whole house fans need to make a comeback. Our house was built in the 1920s and has one from the early 60's before AC was common and I love that fucking thing. We still have some window AC units for really hot days or days when its hot and raining but it cuts WAAAAY down on how often we actually end up using them. Still uses some power obviously but nowhere near as much from what I can tell, and that's a 60 odd year old one.
In practice, with a normal amount of bugs it doesn't really happen
The inside of the intake gets dirty as fuck.
