Yes…“over 100” means above that. At high humidity for long periods of time, it doesn’t have to be much above that temperature to kill

Math checks out. Did you have a point?

I’ve been to hoover damn where it was 44 Celsius and I loved it
Shouldn’t these monkeys be used to high temperatures? 37 doesn’t seem that high to me
Getting into 50s, that’s a different story

37 is 98.6F. It’s the human body temperature.

I couldn’t care less how many humans perish due to our own stupidity, gullibility, and selfishness.
It sucks that other animals suffer and will go extinct as a result of our choices.

I care about humans perishing due to choices others have made. It’s fucked up to tell poor people “I don’t care you’re dying because you’re of the same species as rich assholes who cause the world to burn”.
