@MrEenergy Last I read, less than 5% of households in the UK have aircon of any kind. Everything here is designed to keep heat in, not let it out.

@PlatoonPod Is central air conditioning uncommon in the UK?

My computer is sitting there comfortably, with the expensive cooling system I bought for it, while I gradually melt into my chair. This is not an equal relationship.

Most US style window units won't work over here because - I learned today - Americans and Brits do not build windows the same way. Ours are hinged and open outward like doors, we generally don't have the sliding/vertical-hung/hatch style windows your air con units fit to. (One of the many thousands of ways nothing in the UK is designed for warm weather.)

@LeoWaldock I bought an aircon unit last year thinking I was being very clever. But I don't think we know how to make Aircon units in this country, because the pipe going to the window radiates so much heat that the room gets warmer.

@PlatoonPod It is horrible having 500W-800W of heat dumped into your room. We Brits deserve air con

Emblematic of the entire show. There were people on (and behind) The Boys with genuine talent. But they were kneecapped by the guy in charge, the sum total of whose personal and artistic ambition is pissing off some transient chud. The Boys is, in the end, a satire of its creator.

OMG this is his review of what @TheBoysTV did to Homelander, I’ll never get a better review ever. #TheBoys

@wwarrior_1 We spent tens of billions of pounds arming Ukraine and in return we got one Eurovision vote.

"Israel scores high with the jury because it's rigged" says a guy I quite like. "How do they rig the public vote" I ask, ensuring it is not reciprocal. The guy's a very clever doctor, incidentally. The radicalisation of the upper-middle class is one of the least talked-about phenomena of modern politics.

@PlatoonPod It's quite difficult to be a gay man at a Eurovision party and *not* get laid, but that'll probably do it.

Being at a party in London where Eurovision is on, and trying to explain to people why the Israel vote is so high (while finding this very, very funny), is a 100% guaranteed way to ensure you do not get laid.

Finally, to clarify the point: Israel scored highly because the anti-Semitism that characterises so much online discourse is not reflective of most normal, offline people's actual opinions.

Also, if ever there were a justified cause for genocide, Eurovision would be it.

He's like a shit Nick Fury, popping up in a post-credit scene to recruit the person who just stabbed herself repeatedly in the face with a broom handle.
