Yep tis fucketh, but should be cool this weekend which is good cause I got a 10k fun run I need to slay

Jesus, running anything over 25°C is just torture for me personally, props on doing it and keep hydrated

I find it's the humidity that's the kicker. I've run comfortably into the low 30's but damn if it's humid I won't go out if it's above 25.

I’m all for Summer. Moved here in May and I just lived through two winters in a row.

You mean because of the already high temperatures or...?

[–] WaxedWookie 30 points 1 year ago (1 children)

High temps, bullshit cost of living with no end in sight, government that's not interested in actual solutions that's still miles better than the alternative... The usual.

Literally this

We're not even 3 weeks in to Spring yet and we're already seeing highs in the mid-30s.

I know, today was unbearable for me too. Just double checking I wasn't missing anything else. I don't often see memes about Australia here, and the raccoon confused me

There's [email protected], I think, if you want Aussie memes. It's not super active though.

Me, an American, just woke up, looks at your post.... so confused for a minute. "30 degrees Fahrenheit is freezing" reaction.

Wait until you learn that it's already over 1/6th of the way through Spring, as opposed to not yet even the start of Autumn!

It's almost like there's different seasons in other parts of the world! Good thing I know that the world is flat and everywhere is really just other parts of the U.S.

The only time I've knowingly been in 40+ heat was in Sydney. The house I was staying in had no fans and was stifling, so I opened the front door, thinking to let a breeze blow though. It was like opening an oven door, a gust of hot air in my face. The whole week was unbearable - blistering hot outside, far too cold in places with aircon.

The fire season is going to be fucked this year.

Fires. Fires everywhere.

Not a psychotic breakdown, just a psychotic break
