Man made global warming is real.

The humidity the past few days has been off the charts bad.  It's 83 degrees out, but with the humidity at 72% it feels like a reprieve from the weekend.  With all of the recent rain, the mosquito population is out of control, as well as black flies and other noseeums.  Said F it and bought a bat house for 400 bats and a purple martin house to try and control the insect part.

If you shopped around you probably could have gotten one for 350 bats.

Now you tell me.

The dew point is what makes humidity feel awful, and I remember it being in the mid-80's a couple weeks ago, and 70 is when it starts to feel uncomfortable.

Taking a trip to Williamsburg VA with the family.  It's cooler in Naples!

I thought I'd grown used to this balls sticking to your leg Houston humidity but lately it's been insane

Take a shower before work and walk outside and you're sweating

Makes for good exercise weather though because you'll be sopping wet with a quickness

Yet, 90 out of 100 Texans are over weight and the majority of those are obese.

They sell toilets at Home Depot for $98 that save water. Button ones for piss button twos for shteins. I installed them in both of my bathrooms. Just want you tree huggers to know I'm doing my part.

I'm actually taking a dump on one now as I type this

@realDonaldTrump: The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.

I'm a global warming guy, but that story (like 90% of science stories on non-science sites) is clickbait crap. The article itself says that temperatures in Mecca wouldn't reach the threshold before the end of the century even under the business as usual scenario. I know that some people think the only way to get anything done about the warming is by scaring people with exaggerations, but that's not how I roll.

Also, in general, the arctic regions are warming faster than the tropics, and the winters are warming faster than the summers, so ridiculously hotter summers in desert areas isn't really the way to think about what's happening. Mecca's likely to get hotter due to increased urbanization (Bin Laden's family seems to build a new hotel for rich people there every 6 months) at a faster rate than global warming would have an impact on it anyway.
