Let’s stop pretending World Cup players in ICE COLLARS AND COOLING VESTS are NORMAL.
When footballers are already training in 30°C / 86°F-plus heat, wrapped in ice and pouring water over themselves just to cope, that is a crisis signal for football’s future and for all sports.

Hmm, so many people with heatwave issues here.
These are some basic tips on dealing with heatwaves I posted a long time ago... Probably still useful to some.

From social media posts and various discussions among those I know, these many changes have been challenging.
Yet I think I am not overstating it to say that for #disabled people like me, these events have been a relentless cascade of complications--ranging from minor to massive--in our already #complicated lives.
I am far from alone in that my disabilities or #medications or both make me very #HeatSensitive.
When we hit 24°C, I am (metaphorically) melting and not particularly physically or mentally functional until temperatures cool below that threshhold.
The heat alone is enough to make me feel as though I am utterly exhausted, even if I have somehow managed to get a decent sleep *despite* the heat -- the heat saps it all away, regardless. ☹️

I've talked about some of this on Mastodon before, such as creating #coroplast and #blackout material #WindowBlocks to prevent the heat from our long 53°N summer days getting into my unit (circa 2021) or adding thermal window film to reduce heat even more (circa 2025) without simultaneously creating a dark and depressing #bunker-effect for the entire summer.
Doing all of this required various materials, time and of course, money. While all these (and other) mitigations were experiemented with and created/installed over several years, which spread out the up-front cost, the irony is not lost on me that these approaches have culmulatively cost as much as as least two in-window #AirConditoners would. 🙄
