THE HEATWAVE HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN WE ARE GOING TO BURN
So the Americans will understand, 23 Celsius is the same as 73 Fahrenheit.
Yall are fuckin weak tbh
What the fuck why does this country think that’s a heatwave?
If anything that’s cold
Because we’re not used to it. Britain’s usually a cold, wet country, and we don’t have the infrastructure to handle hot weather. When I worked in a care home, everyone started mildly freaking out when summer came because the old and the sick are particularly in danger. There’s always a high death toll, and ecological problems, and people getting heatstroke, and lots of extra worry for disabled folk, especially since public transport is usually disrupted…
So, well, yeah, we are weak. But there’s very little we can do about it. And it really sucks to come on Tumblr and hear people making light of something that kills people, and will kill them again this year.
The Queen opening Parliament today. She offered her praises for Tory austerity policies saying, “Britain should live within its means.”
The irony of watching a woman sat on a golden throne, covered in diamonds, and wearing an ermine cloak – flanked by her equally undeservedly wealthy family members – telling the nation that austerity is the way to go.
