But I’ve been outside since about 11:30 manning my smoker. Inside it’s a comfortable 70 degrees.
I've been smoking too, baw. I haven't sweat yet. I guess it is the 80° with 55° dewpoint and 5-10 mph North breeze.

I’ll agree to this if the world will agree to reduce the human population to 2 billion and then maintain it at that level. With that many people, the earth would be a paradise where resources would be available to everyone.

I’ve at least been in the shade all day. But I’m also on North Alabama where it’s been on the mid 80s. Hasn’t been too bad at all now that I think about it. Not as comfortable as being inside, but tolerable none the less.

They don’t understand the humidity. Sitting under shade in peak of summer isn’t going to make it cooler all of a sudden

Agree.
When I lived in NOLA I put a window unit on the curb. Wasn't long before a dude came by in a pickup and asked if I was throwing it out. He fixed it and put it in his window.

In theory shouldn’t mass a/c use lower the temperature outside as well? When you open a door from an air conditioned building doesn’t cool air escape?

And despite millions of Black Americans fleeing the violence of Jim Crow, the South saw greater in-migration than out-migration for the first time—a direct result of AC. The American car was similarly transformed.
Lol.
The Great Return Migration was the result of civil rights.

That's where I am, baw. You need a Pecan and Walnut tree for better shade. I don't get morning sun, though, where my smoker is. I'm getting some now, in the afternoon, but it is about to drop behind my shop building.

Then again, these are the people who feel like there are too many humans and we need to sacrifice some of them to mother nature in the name of Gaia

I find it funny those types who think the planet is overpopulated think others should be sacrificed for the “good of humanity” instead of stepping up themselves. If you honestly believe the plant is overpopulated, be a man an take a real stand by removing yourself from the equation. I’d at least have a lot more respect for you that way instead of you always expected others to sacrifice.

I jack my individual AC that's located in my individual transportation on low with the fan high. Just for pure spite I open my sunroof when going through poor areas of town.
