quote:

The European Commission’s headquarters was forced to shut down its air-conditioning system on Friday due to the heat wave.

Staff working at the Berlaymont building received a text at midday, reading: “BERL — URGENT — Due to extreme weather conditions, forced shut down of air cooling system from floor 1 to 7 for the rest of the day.”

The 13-story building is home to Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, her 26 commissioners and about 3,000 staff. Von der Leyen works on the 13th floor, and most of her commissioners’ offices are housed on floors eight or above.

Yeah, but I get to sit on the couch with a blanket because I have the A/C cranked way down and laugh at the memes

Meanwhile Europeans here for the World Cup jaws are hitting the floor that everything here has AC, even our dog houses

Of course the Very Important People in the EU all still have AC.

More Europeans die from heat related issues than Americans do of guns on an annual basis.

You and me both, buddy. I'm wearing a sweatshirt because Mrs. Rabbit always has to have a fan blowing on her in addition to keeping the a/c at popsicle-making temp.

I keep the house around 73 but crank the A/C that our bedroom is on down to 71 to sleep. My wife thinks anything below about 78 is too cold. It's a constant battle.

It could be worse.

She could have allowed rabid muslims to rape the people on those floors, had them arrested for being raped, then jailed them again for being racist, while the BBC and legacy media covered it up.
