Last "cool" day was July 16th, which was 3 degrees below normal. Seriously, fuck this summer.

Yeah, this summer has been brutal. Hopefully this doesn't become a trend.
Heh. I'm pretty sure we're well past a trend.
On the other hand, hopefully it means a warmer winter too...but probably not, because fuck me right?
It's been REAL hot / muggy this summer. The farmer's almanac, if I remember correctly, did predict a very hot / tropical-like summer.
Either way, not enough rain, too much heat. Hope the crops turn out.
Saw a news article the other day about how some of the crops that survived the heat were ruined in the recent flooding.

When I was little, we found a man. He looked like - like, butchered. The old woman in the village crossed themselves... and whispered crazy things, strange things. "El Diablo cazador de hombres." Only in the hottest years this happens. And this year, it grows hot. We begin finding our men. We found them sometimes without their skins... and sometimes much, much worse. "El cazador trofeo de los hombres" means the demon who makes trophies of men.
Stay safe everyone, be on the look out for predators.
And some people still deny climate change.
It's hilarious that this is a controversial comment.
And some people still use weather as evidence of climate change until the weather doesn't agree with them.
Grand Rapids hit over 100 degrees in 1936
Detroit's coldest day was in 1984.
Climate change is a change in average temperature over time, not the weather on a certain day.
I know.
If you know, then your comment makes ZERO sense. Nobody points to a hot summer as proof of climate change, it's about as ignorant as people pointing to cold winters as proof against it.
This summer is not an anomaly, it's a trend that's been happening for many years now.
