@Nine I'm guessing you don't have an air conditioner

are you aware of the cheap ice-cooler AC standin thing that you can make for like less than $50? I can walk you through making one if you want

@Felthry the UK only knows of air conditioning in so far as only big businesses have it for their offices, and maybe shops occasionally do (if it even works at all). home aircon is basically "home whatnow?"

Hell I didn't even know aircon EXISTED for homes until I visited california years back.

@Nine I don't know how you people survive like that

you can get a window-mount AC unit for a few hundred (insert local currency here), but if you want I can walk you through making a cheap and easy cooler thingy that can help a lot

@Felthry (also because the main source of the unpleasantness in summer in England is humidity rather than heat, and the rest of the year it's way, way colder, our houses are all built to retain heat, hence why heat and humidityis murder over here.)

@Nine AC units dehumidify too--you can get ones that do a better job of it but the easiest way to dehumidify air is to cool it down to the point where it can't hold as much water (and then the water condenses out and you can then heat the air back up if you want)
