So, tell me, what is on your mind at the moment? (Part 1)

You know what? I hope Ireland gets reverse climate change where the winters are mild, and the summers are warm. I am bored of mediocrity and I want the animals here to freak out because it’s hilarious when they do, kinda but in a way weirdly messed up.

Also, if there is a way to have nice fly-free weather, I will take it. :joy: Flies are just flying cockroaches, they always find a way to survive, huh? That’s another point against central heating being on in winter for long periods of time. Flies don’t survive.

Another is that money is saved. A lot of it. Just wear blankets, it’s not hard.

So like Ireland becomes more like Spain in terms of climate?

I don’t know what you’re complaining about. It was 4°C / 39°F here in Florida last night. Brrrrrrrr! (-᷅_-᷄๑)

I would love that. Salou was so nice in the summer. I want the East Coast to be like Salou. That would be so nice. And we can bake :smiley: and it’s an excuse for us to go to the beach. Nah, if we had Barcelona’s climate it would be great. Not the absurdly hot Southern Spain one.

Try not living in the panhandle? :flushed: I mean in general, most of Florida during the day is still in like the 60s-low 70s and maybe even more. You can’t cry during the day :smiley:

I was a giraffe who ate a bunch of twix. Also today is the day when all of the adults come visit for Day of the Dead. Midnight at Oct 31 and Nov 1 was the children’s day.

@NotARussianBot I feel like I would survive being put in the freezer or trapped in a fridge. I really don’t feel the cold at all. 39F/4C is really nothing for me, but a minor inconvenience.

You are a pastry, you could just hibernate for a while and then go into the oven or microwave to wake up.

Yes, true. And Irish summers aren’t really cool at all. They’re very mild, and humid and sometimes bordering on some hot days in the low-mid 80s [we get that once or twice a year, at least]. Yes, they can be wet in July, but it’s still sticky. August and June are the top months, and sometimes Early September is good too, and occasionally May. It’s not like I live in the Arctic Circle, or anything.

We average the early 70s in the Summer Months and the 60s in Spring. The average right now is about 50F/11c (yes, this is in November), according to the Met Office, which monitors the weather closely.

Our temperatures are pretty average at the moment, as far as things go, despite the storm fronts. We barely get snow now, or if we do get it, it barely lasts because of our Oceanic Climate. People have many misconceptions about Ireland’s climate and even the highs and the lows aren’t that far apart.

People think of Ireland and go “rain” and “cold”, but we broke records during September. This September was our hottest ever. We got to 28c/82.4F and broke the record. This was when we had the unbearably sticky rainforest weather that was more humid than normal, but my body adjusted to it.

And even in October, we had 1-2 days that were about 70F/21c this year. And sometimes, we do get warm days in October every year, and even in November too, we can get the odd day in the high 50s/low 60s (14-16c).

Ireland’s climate is steady, it doesn’t really shift because of how and where it’s situated. Sure, it cools down, but the area I am in rarely gets floods, but this year (this week actually), we got some because of the storm fronts coming from the US (thanks guys, thanks El Niño :stuck_out_tongue: ).

It’s been weird, but honestly, our temperatures are weird every year. We get hot spells, cold snaps, and everything in between, but its not as cold as people think it is here.

Did Churro really just do a deep dive, and talk/rant about the weather? That’s the most Irish thing I’ve ever done :joy:

And also, Mesopunk seems like something I wrote, and have kinda written before, @Akje or something I would at least attempt.

Mesopunk sounds right up your alley! Maybe you should tweak your motorcycle book to somehow incorporate that…? It’s seems to be new and trendy! ٩(˘◡˘)۶

And I know! I have no explanation for the utter weirdness of us all talking about the weather. I’m thinking the Halloween candy’s been poisoned and we’re all wasted. ☆*・゚・\(=^ᴗ^)/・゚*☆

You never know. I’m still working on the club lore and planning that story. I decided to do something else for NaNo to hit the word count because I know I’m not gonna get 50k in 30 days from it.

I’m thinking about the things there. And how it all links up accordingly.

Yeah lol I’m watching the American weather to watch the Gulf Stream and El Niño. If you guys heat up anymore then we’re gonna be mini Miami with all those storms coming to us. We had flooding this week, and we never get floods. This is one of the roads home:

And there’s a local football pitch that looks like a paddy field now:

So far already it’s been one of the wettest October/Novembers ever here. And places near me have broken the record already.

In terms of how chapter one went, it is going to be apparent for what is going on with Isilynor.

The Reveal?

She is chosen to become the next Nirvana as she is sharing a body with one of her divine ancestors.
