I do feel stupid for feeling this. India is currently on fire and also flooding iirc, by contrast here in kkkanada it’s not much hotter than recent years. I am lucky enough that we have a portable AC to run in the bedroom.

It’s not the literal heat, our room is an ok temp honestly. But the heat seems to be breaking down my joints and bones, I feel like a decrepit corpse weighted with lead rn. This is the first time I’m feeling this too, didn’t happen last year so my body is maybe decaying again.

I think it’s heat exhaustion, I am making sure to drink and stuff but I just feel sluggish and sore, I am scarfing ibuprofen to little avail. Weh!

    I finally had the time and money to get an AC unit. Stayed up late only to find it doesn’t fit, so malding a bit as well at the moment.

          the one-pipe types are awful though, they create negative pressure inside the house, which means the house will immediately start sucking hot air in through every crack.

          do not go lower than two-pipe portable ACs
