Ridiculously vindicating to have my American partner with me in the U.K. rn and understanding that the heat is actually bad

[shrooms @wormsgod_]

americans really gotta peep down about making fun of the european heat like their house won't be blown away by the big bad wolf

[The Cynical Crusader @Cyn1calCrusader]

So, jokes aside, to understand why the heat is worse in the UK than say Arizona for example, the answer is quite long...

First it's the Humidity, it's far higher here.
The UK's island location and prevailing south-westerly winds bring moist sea air, so heatwaves are often humid rather than dry.

In contrast, many of the hottest US states (e.g., Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico) have dry desert heat where sweat evaporates quickly, so you actually feel cooler despite higher temperatures.
Even humid US regions (like the Southeast) usually have widespread air conditioning to offset it.

Second, the buildings and Infrastructure that we have all are designed to Trap Heat, not Release It.

UK homes are built for cold, damp winters: thick brick/stone walls, heavy insulation, small windows, and designs that retain warmth.
During a heatwave, they turn into ovens, solar gain through windows builds up, and there is poor ventilation or passive cooling features like overhangs, shutters, or light-coloured roofs.

Plus, poor air conditioning: Only about 5% of UK homes have AC (vs. ~90% in the US).
It's not standard because it's rarely needed most of the year, but during spikes it's a nightmare.
Also, retrofitting is expensive and tricky in old terraced houses or listed buildings.

This extended to public transport, schools, offices, and even hospitals as they often lack cooling.

Finally, most importantly, we have zero acclimatisation.
Meaning it's just as hot at night as it is during the day.

Britons aren't physiologically or culturally used to sustained heat.

We're properly white!

So, a sudden jump from typical UK summer temps feels extreme, and the body struggles more without gradual adaptation.
Heatwaves often bring "tropical nights" (temps staying above 20 °C), so homes don't cool down overnight.

You can't sleep, recover, or anything which just compounds fatigue, dehydration, etc.
Drier US heat often cools significantly at night.
That is all topped up with the fact that we have longer summer daylight at the UK's higher latitude meaning more hours of solar heating.

Hope this long explanation that no one wanted clears this right up...

If you've ever played and enjoyed D2, join the cause

[I Am Fallout @falloutplays]

I've seen (& signed) the petition going around. But I think the much more powerful response if you're hoping for some kind of future for the franchise is:
Log on the week of June 9th.

Dont' get me wrong, Sony execs aren't gonna fall to their knees in tears and insta-green-light D3 or anything. But seeing SO many players out there logging on to give one last hurrah to the franchise that meant so much to them - it'll speak volumes in its own way.

At the very least, we'll have one more window of fun enjoying the last batch of new content in a game that meant so much to us. At best, it'll show how passionate the community still is, and just how badly so many of us want SOME kind of future for this franchise, no matter how long it might take to build.

I'll see you out there in June. It's gonna be one hell of a ride.

For almost twelve years, we have had the joy and honor to explore the Destiny universe with you all. Through all the ups and downs, surprises and triumphs, building Destiny alongside our players has been a monumental privilege. While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2.

As our focus turns towards a new beginning for Bungie, we will begin work incubating our next games. To that end, on June 9, 2026, we will release the final live-service content update for Destiny 2 to begin that new journey as a studio.

Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today. Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to.

We’re proud of Destiny 2, the places it took us, and the legacy it has created. Because of you all, our universe is vast, built on years of shared stories, adventures, and victories. From the Cosmodrome to the Pale Heart to the Lawless Frontier, we have forged life-long memories and friendships with you all.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made that journey with us.

From the deepest part of our hearts, thank you, and we'll see you in the stars.

Am I weird for thinking ppl should be spoiler tagging posts with the new leviathans in Sub2? Like your first encounter with a leviathan is so memorable it feels like such a lame spoiler

@CoD0104 "oh my god bruh" its a valid point until children stop dying

[Hackal @HackalBH]

@Sgrape4 tbh its really up to you but it was a bit of a jumpscare when I suddenly had to switch up your name when casting GC 😭

So, I really cannot stay silent and swallow the disrespect declared upon the other streamers.

This is legit ragebait and disrespectful towards the game's REPUTATION as a whole.

I don't care who blocks me or hates me after this tweet.
