The literal first day of Summer was June 22nd tho D:

Uuuugh, that sucks. Stay cool, man!

Install some heatsinks into your spine!

So...you're a hot bitch, is what I'm hearing.

Sorry, but it's true...I'm a hottie.

you in a shitty wooden oven too?

I'll ask Haley if she can keep your face cool at least.

Just a little tip if you really need to regulate your temperature. If you're using a wet towel to keep cool, wrap it around your neck. You'll be cooling the blood in your carotid arteries, and by extension the rest your body. The heat's getting dangerous and summer has only just started. Stay safe!

Dude! Stay cool. I know what that's like to live through. I hope it's a short heatwave.

Stay hydrated!

Oh no! Stay safe D:

If you're in a dry heat area, Doing stuff to limit sun contact heating up your house like a greenhouse effect might help. You could check if your windows are uv tinted, and if not, you could get a white or reflective cover to reflect some of the sun out. costco has a pretty decent heavyset tarp for 20$ for 2 that can be easily cut up with scissors or a emergency blanket or 1$ plastic table cover if you don't already have a window cover.

One of those cooling towels or a cold shower can also help. They get wet with water and help cool you down. Wetting a shirt in a bowl and straining the water out, and whipping it can also work for heat stroke. Though it can kinda tend to get mildewy too with heat + moisture unless left out time to time in uv to disinfect.

Fans or misters/spray bottles can work too.

Heat stroke is nothing to kid about, other than cutting your hair shorter to let more heat leave the body or lighter summer wear, not much you can do without a ac unless you want to put ice cubes /water on your head.

What do you mean by "whipping it"?

Oh it's a bit old, but one of the ways you can stay cold in a hot but dry climate can be to wet a piece of cloth, and as water evaporates, it can cool down a area a ton, by up to like -20 F / -10 C on your skin.

I notice too that even though we live in a dry climate, we've tried doing that "eco friendly rock garden" stuff, and the temperatures were like 110 F / 40 C while when it was watered, the area dropped to a still sweltering but managabler 90 F / 30 C.

Basically whipping the shirt just lets excess moisture get out. Like swinging the shirt like a whip or bat, get it soft and cool and whip it on, and it can be noticably air chilled.

I hear it doesn't work in super humid climates like Florida or southern bogs(?) though(?) and can just get mildewy instead though.

You mean swinging the shirt around then putting it on?

Same here... Try and stay cool!

Invest in the future. Buy an underground home.

Heathen units! I love that. Imma have to use that with my boyfriend from now on.

stay safe man, don't forget to drink water every so often

Try putting your tablet in the fridge first

Stay safe and hydrated.

Yikes hoping the best for you!
