@TormentedSapien Just put the ac in the bag man.

AMERICANS Can you PLEASE STOP lecturing us Europeans about A/C when it's hot??? PLEASE. First of all, A/C is expensive. Secondly, it resolves a problem that I can no longer bitch about. Thirdly, YOU ARE NOT EUROPEAN STOP TELLING US HOW TO RUN OUR COUNTRIES.

@VineOfNorthLDN @RefinedPopulist That despite that gigantic anchor, 200 million Americans still out perform.

@JDonutK @RefinedPopulist What does that say about your country when half of you aren't white

Brits thought they’d be one of America’s richest states before finding out they’d actually be the poorest. Now they’re finding out the hard way that American winters are harsher than Britain’s, and the wood-framed homes that don’t bake us alive in summer retain heat better too.

@VineOfNorthLDN @RefinedPopulist Any statistic involving America not separated by race is worthless. Blacks function as an anchor on all facets of life while white America is on par or better than europe.

@RefinedPopulist The face of an American when they realise we are wealthier than they are and dominate them in every conceivable metric.

@sapphyreblayze It would seem strange because we're so wealthy even the poorest have a washer and dryer inside their building if not inside their unit.

@ArisakaAya We've had it better than them pretty much starting right off the bat lol.

Has Britain been a second world country this entire time?

@ReidHornet @contramordor First one sounds good enough. Made everyone else want to come live here.

@contramordor Which one, where only white land owners could vote, women couldn’t vote, and Black people were enslaved? Please provide an era that describes “our old country.”

Serious Q to any Trump defender: how is this not an undeniable example of straight-up racism? ‘They’re all crooks, the Somalians’? Which other ethnic or racial or national group can you just entirely condemn as criminals? Previously he called them all garbage. Racism, clearly.

@ReviewsPossum First world BTW.

Europeans don't have fucking ceiling fans?

@Howlingmutant0 Funny they think they'd even still be left alive lol. Mexicans and Chinese will throw them all in prison and call it done.

Black guys have this idea that once white people stop being a majority in the US they somehow get to be in charge

@joplepenopepper @restoreorderusa Dems hate white people.

@restoreorderusa I honestly do not understand this move. Embracing White Identitarians was one of their few electoral ways forward. Fuentes and Friends would have goose stepped right in line. Are Dems just retarded?

This is a disaster for them

@CinnamonOolong @gaymergir Brick houses do not matter past a point, most of all of those types of tornados land here. Brick will not stop these tornados.

@gaymergir Yes, the US does get way more tornados than elsewhere, but showing a map of fatalities when discussing the safety of different housing types could completely backfire. What if Europe did get more tornados, but because they had brick houses, they have less fatalities.

"Do americans think they are the only nation on earth to experience tornadoes" I mean, yeah? Pretty much?

@captive_dreamer They look great, but American engines are almost never oil tight. Harley and Indian both are guilty of being carried by name brand.

Indian motorcycles just look cool. The Chief is an American icon and they apparently just reissued an homage to it. Coincidentally, 2026 marks 125 years since the company was founded, dovetailing nicely with celebrations of 250 years of US independence this year.

@AkkadSecretary Goering getting a 138 while being in severe opiate withdrawal is crazy.

@eugyppius1 Maybe there's a leftover jew in the attic? Being serious for a moment could it be a water hammer?

there is every ten minutes or so a periodic thump emanating from somewhere in my house and I can't figure out what is making this noise or where it is and it's starting to freak me out.

@AndreasLmsland @bumbadum14 It actually makes no sense for France either cause energy costs are the major limiting factor.

@JDonutK @bumbadum14 As a person who always has AC running to heat and cool everything I always get very confused by articles like these.

Is America the only 1st world country?

@MysteryGrove It's time to troons out.

We’re not voting out way out of this

@jill_wood @Whalesrule221 And pretty much none of them have more severe weather than we do. Which is why it's a weird excuse.

@Whalesrule221 'Euros'? You do realise there are more than 40 countries in Europe, with very different climates!

Euros call us stupid, but they somehow don’t understand that the insulation that keeps homes warm in the winter can also keep their homes cold in the summer. The Midwest gets far colder than Ireland, and yet we stay cool in the summer. Funny how that works.

@Cyn1calCrusader The north of the USA is on the same equator line as southern Italy, you're smoking pcp lol. Arizona has black flag days 110+ you guys tap out at 85 degrees.

So, jokes aside, to understand why the heat is worse in the UK than say Arizona for example, the answer is quite long... First it's the Humidity, it's far higher here. The UK's island location and prevailing south-westerly winds bring moist sea air, so heatwaves are often humid rather than dry. In contrast, many of the hottest US states (e.g., Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico) have dry desert heat where sweat evaporates quickly, so you actually feel cooler despite higher temperatures. Even humid US regions (like the Southeast) usually have widespread air conditioning to offset it. Second, the buildings and Infrastructure that we have all are designed to Trap Heat, not Release It. UK homes are built for cold, damp winters: thick brick/stone walls, heavy insulation, small windows, and designs that retain warmth. During a heatwave, they turn into ovens, solar gain through windows builds up, and there is poor ventilation or passive cooling features like overhangs, shutters, or light-coloured roofs. Plus, poor air conditioning: Only about 5% of UK homes have AC (vs. ~90% in the US). It's not standard because it's rarely needed most of the year, but during spikes it's a nightmare. Also, retrofitting is expensive and tricky in old terraced houses or listed buildings. This extended to public transport, schools, offices, and even hospitals as they often lack cooling. Finally, most importantly, we have zero acclimatisation. Meaning it's just as hot at night as it is during the day. Britons aren't physiologically or culturally used to sustained heat. We're properly white! So, a sudden jump from typical UK summer temps feels extreme, and the body struggles more without gradual adaptation. Heatwaves often bring "tropical nights" (temps staying above 20 °C), so homes don't cool down overnight. You can't sleep, recover, or anything which just compounds fatigue, dehydration, etc. Drier US heat often cools significantly at night. That is all topped up with the fact that we have longer summer daylight at the UK's higher latitude meaning more hours of solar heating. Hope this long explanation that no one wanted clears this right up...

@Ken_LoveTW They missed their window of opportunity to do it during Russian invasion

China Just Admitted Its Population Collapse Is Now Irreversible. 33 Million Chinese men will never find a wife and it's too late to fix. China’s marriage rate just collapsed to levels that make recovery nearly impossible. In Q1 2026, China recorded only 1.69 million marriages, down 6.24% from last year and less than half the level of 2017. Behind the numbers lies a terrifying reality: 33 million more men than women, a shrinking young population, sky-high housing costs, youth unemployment, and a growing “lying flat” generation that has simply given up on the old life script. This is a structural demographic crisis decades in the making and it is already too late for China to reverse. In this video, I break down the 6 major factors destroying China’s marriage system and what it means for China’s future.

@RingoPrime @RBPundit We have brick houses, it's not an issue for them either.

@RBPundit Compared to walls in the UK they are, ours are made of bricks, yours wood.

Wait. They think homes in the US have uninsulated walls?
