Threads is such a weird choice of social media to me. They got upset with the Hitler-run site and switched to the site run by Hitler By Committee.
It is impossible to make a good twitter. It has never been done and can never be done.
The only way to make good twitter is to nuke any attempt at Twitter

I drove through arizona once in June and it was 40°C at midnight, fuuuuck living there
June through September in Arizona. :angry sun face:
Tell me you’re a nonresident without saying you’re a nonresident. Makes Phoenix out to be all of AZ when it’s only the hottest part of the state. Doesn’t know that Flagstaff and Tucson are 10 to 25 degrees F cooler for the most part. For now.
And if I could find a remote job that pays what I make now, I’d leave Phoenix too. And yes, I’ve been looking.

Nope.
It’s been 38c for the past week in Morocco. It’s not even summer yet. I can’t belive people have willing lived here year round for thousands of years
To be honest, I understand some parts of the country, but I never ever want to visit anything south of Marrakech again. That city has to be a different dimension, because why the fuck does the air blowing in my face feel like a hair-dryer going off.
The architecture and political economy required to live and thrive in such extremes is completely incompatible with whatever we have right now…
I was about to say “indigenous peoples lived there for centuries before euros came to get boiled by the sun. They only didn’t pave every single surface and use the brightest and hottest times of the day to be their work times.”. But it’s about urbanization and the erasure of traditional ways of living, too.
And because it’s in the US the only compensation for this done is AC, which of course means people who do not have access to AC will just overheat.
Or better yet, just walk into the desert and succumb
No, you have to do it the AmeriKKKan way, which is to seal everything under asphalt, glas and steel, let millions of people move into that furnace of a city and then surround it with data centers constantly blowing hot air at it to make this self-created hell even hotter.
You don’t have to wander into the wilderness. Hundreds of (mostly homeless) people die of heat related causes every summer in the city, on the street.
Phoenix is a ‘monument to arrogance’ has been a trope on the internet for a while now and it kind of bugs me. The area that is Phoenix was founded hundreds of years ago by indigenous people who built the canal systems that the city still uses to deliver water to residents. Read about the Hohokam if you’re interested.
No it’s not sustainable at the scale that capitalism drives it and is definitely ass backwards to build water intensive industry like data centers and alfalfa farms there, but the desert does support life even if it’s really really hot sometimes.

Fair enough
My boomer inlaws live in one of the golf course communities in the Phoenix area so to me it’s a deeply cursed place
