Counterpoint: I lived in Sweden and I miss that winter’s gloom. Sure, it’s dark before the snow falls but it gives you something to look forward to.

Sounds like Canada anywhere not near the ocean. I’m in that same boat, and I’ll happily trade the stupidly hot summers for two extra months of winter.
I miss the moderate summers of Scandinavia in that regard. Sure, it rained a lot, but at least you could go outside without roasting to a crisp in minutes during summer.
So very true. Dressing for cold is so much easier than heat it’s mindboggling to read some of these summer fan comments. Like, do you guys actually live on the same planet as I do? Cause this one sucks the minute temperatures go past 20c.
Thank you for perfectly describing just about all the reasons I would skip summer altogether if I could.
The one missing complaint from my end is that you can’t do anything outside or in a non-AC building without instantly sweating like you took a shower with your clothes on.
And don’t get me started on everything being on fire. The only thing worse than regular summer is a summer where you can’t see the skies for several month’s due to the smoke and you have to worry about your house burning down all the damn time.
Couldn’t agree more with the OOP.

Not sure why the west is so eager to shield Israel from their responsibilities, but Netanyahu and co should stand trial for their crimes against humanity. But so should Khamenei.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato World News@lemmy.world•Israeli hospital hit by Iranian missile strikeEnglish2·1 month agoAgreed. I don’t care who gets tried in The Hague first though, so long as both get their lawful comeuppance.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato World News@lemmy.world•Israeli hospital hit by Iranian missile strikeEnglish163·1 month agoThis is the only sane take. Bombing hospitals is a war crime for a goddamn reason.
There is simply no excuse for this, both sides should be held liable for their war crimes.

God, I hate how this is accurate on both accounts. Fucking dog whistles…
