With this heat, I find an idea of a safe and temp-regulated bath-bed tempting.

But I’m sure a daily 8hr sleep in water isn’t something our bodies are ready for. What are probable effects? Can we mitigate them?

Lokal temperatur is not the same as global temperatures, it can be cold in one place and blazing hot in another…

Well, it’s been over 100° fahrenheit here for the past month. I think that’s like 35° C? And with >60% humidity the heat index is closer to 130°F

Staying in water that long would be hell, imagine the prune fingers! D:

Same mate, I was waiting for our traditional European summer heat wave and the Indians and Americans took it all for them :(

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct-----
