Realizing that 7 "far-right" candidates have won in Latin America since USAID was defunded


Doing this to an elderly couple, simply because they attended President Trump’s speech. Why?

Driving through Ohio. Towns like this are why we’re trying to avoid the interstates and take the slower roads instead. These are the kinds of places we want to see. This feels like peak America.🇺🇸

In all my years of watching the FIFA World Cup, I’ve never seen anything on this level. The USA is putting on the best World Cup ever. If that bothers you, a retweet would be appreciated. 😎🇺🇸





As we feel the effects of global warming, British summers with highs of 45C could be on the way. Sky's @t0mclark3 reports on how very hight temperatures could become a regular feature of the UK's weather cycle

The Met Office have released a theoretical forecast for 23rd June 2056. Based on current climate change trends these temperatures will be plausible during intense summer heatwaves in just a few decades.



France records 43.3°C in its hottest June day ever, Britain issues red heat warnings and hundreds of schools close, while Spain, Italy, Germany and Switzerland also face extreme temperatures expected to last until Friday ynetnews.com/article/h1sl7n…


@BenFrankie1788 @RetroCoast @AzPetrich Us senate, by the ‘help’ from lobbyists, forbid us govt to negotiate prices on medicine. Therefore 🇺🇸 pay 3x for medicine. U have 900 health insurance co’s employing 1,000,000 americans. The correct answer is: 🇺🇸 is a grifting country, where politicians are bribed by lobbyists

bruh i didnt realize europeans are actually spending multiple weeks on vacation here for the world cup how can they afford it?








I asked Claude about the air conditioning debate in Europe, and it really didn’t pull any punches.






I am sick of Americans asking why Europeans don’t have air conditioning. The first problem is that they think “Europe” is one place with one climate. How ignorant is that? Take Iceland. Newsflash for Americans - this is in Europe too. The average July high temperature is 12–15°C (54–59°F), with lows near 8–10°C (46–50°F). Scandinavia, Russia, are all similar. Would an American pay for A/C with those temperatures? So let’s talk about southern Europe. Buildings are thicker, shutters are used, the buildings are optimised for natural ventilation. Does this work in the hottest few days or weeks or the year? No. But for many it is not cost effective to put in A/C for a few days or weeks a year. And then there are the places that DO have A/C. Almost all newbuilds in southern Spain, France, Greece and Italy will install A/C. Many older buildings (especially hotels and shops) will retrofit it. I have travelled extensively in the US and I can tell you that the quality of the US air conditioning sucks. In hotels it is noisy, vibrating, poor air quality. Same in many homes. Windows often can’t be opened. How ridiculous is that? So look at your own air quality before you start criticising “Europeans”.
