I think the thing you are missing in this post which is the most important are the 14th – 16th century Dutch pilgrim badges seen here:
Who cares about anything else in history when you can excavate in the Netherlands and actually find these, apparently there have been hundreds if not thousands brought up from rivers throughout the country.
This fucking site: hey net neutrality is about to die :((( please help us :(((( boost and rb everything you see even if you’re not American :((((((((( we’ll have no wifi :(((((( we need you!!!! :((((
Non-Americans: okay
Non-Americans: hey greece is basically on fire, 150 people are wounded, 53 are killed and our nature is being destroyed. we’re suspecting arson. can you please reblog some posts and help spread awareness?
This fucking site:
Allow me to elaborate on how bad things are here. 7 places are burning at the same time while in Μάτι and Κίνετα the fire not only burned trees but because off the strong winds(80 kilometes per hour) it burned houses, it burned people. Firefighters and volunteers do whatever they can with the little gear they have as always because why on earth would the goverment give money to firefighting vechiles, canadairs and literally anything else that could be useful in this country when we know that every summer someone wants to burn forests so they can build whatever they want. Anyways, people started running away once some firefighters managed to warn them to evacute ( something that others should have done because these people have to keep working so they can prevent the fore from doing anymore damage ). People started running to get to the beach which was their only hope, unfortunately some people with their families were trapped once the fire circurled the area around them leaving them with the only thing to do, wait for their end. Charred bodies were found locked in embrace the next day. Now the people who reached the beach had to wait there so they could be transferred from there to the port of Ραφήνα. Here’s a photo :
The deaths are officially at 79 by the most recent official announcement. Places like Mati, Kineta, Chania, Neos Boutsas and more are being burned to the core.
Minimum help is being given by neighboring countries. Officially 2 aircrafts from Italy and 2 from Cuprus whipe some are expected from Romania, Hungary, Spain.
There are abouy 31 people registred as missing in a web site while that doesnt mean those are all the people missing.
If you know people you know or suspect are missing call 199, the fire department.
If you are looking for someone missing don’t call hospitals, call 199, the fire department.
People got burned alive in their cars, in their homes.
Cars are literally melted by the fires.
The victims include children, thankfully the ones that survived are shocked, of course, but safe and in the hospital. The number of kids in the hospital ‘Παίδον’ (Pedon) in Athens is 11; 12 exited yesterday, and the kids left are expected to leave today.
The suspicion of the fires falls on arson. It something that Greece has suffered from a lot throughout the years. Yet we are never prepared for most of our problems whether it has to do with natural causes or not.
The situation is horrible. If you can’t help anyway else, reblog to spread awareness on the matter!
Honestly this is so much more helpful than my vent post (which I didn’t expect to blow up the way it did). If y’all are gonna boost something, boost this instead.
rebblogging AGAIN, because Greece, South Europe in general, needs help.
HEY YOU PEOPLE LOOK AT THIS AND SPREAD IT
I can’t help but be impressed again at how well this house holds heat when you don’t want it to, while turning miserable as hell in the winter too.
so fed up with people complaining about Gaelic spelling.
English spelling is essentially the combination of what happened when the ghosts of Shakespeare and Caxton staged an orgy with a Frenchman on a torn piece of paper, but do go off on Gaelic, why don’t you.
A JEWELLED GOLD AND SILVER-MOUNTED CHARKA SHAPED AS A BIRD, marked Fabergé and with the workmaster’s mark of Anna Ringe, St. Petersburg, circa 1896, with scratched inventory number 2661. Of rounded form, with gold-mounted cabochon red stone eyes, nephrite beak and claw feet, engraved with the Russian inscription ‘Christmas Tree, 4 January 1897’
I went for a walk with my two suitors. I stumbled and accidentally fell into the river. The suitors ran to help me but since they both wanted to be a hero they pulled me in different directions. Finally, thanks to the miracle of the Virgin of Guadalupe I managed to get out by myself and didn’t drown. Then I decided to not go out with any of these idiots.
Alejandro S. was getting married and felt sick during the reception and fell on the cake. He gives thanks to Saint Jude with this retablo because his fiancée was understanding although she laughed at him afterwards.
There are now more than 90 people dead. You can bitch and whine that’s it’s hotter where you are, but you have to understand that it’s the elderly, homeless and small children who don’t have air conditioning and are susceptible to health problems. How fucking despicable can you be to just laugh at people dying because temperatures are hotter where you are. Our infrastructure was built to withstand -30 C°, not the heat. It’s not about how Canadians are “weak”, it’s literally just shitty circumstances.
Not to mention that people who are accustomed to cold climates have a physically more difficult time coping with temperatures that their bodies aren’t used to. Also a lot of people who have never had to cope with hotter temperatures aren’t as familiar with heat exhaustion or heat stroke, don’t know how to manage the heat safely , etc!
That last point.
Denmark is currently in its hottest summer ever recorded, and the number of people I’ve talked to who have only now discovered what a heat stroke is amazes me, because I grew up in the South of France where summers are hot as fuck every year – my brother-in-law went out for a bike ride without a hat and with a half a liter of water for three hours and came back and was sick because of it.
The idea that he’d get sick because of the sun didn’t even OCCUR to him, because in his 30+ years on this green ball swirling through space, it’s never been an issue for him.
In the South of France, most cafés have mist sprayers and all shops / malls are air-conditioned. In Denmark, most cafés do NOT have mist sprayers (but heat lights!) and the shops are not always air-conditioned.
Most of the warehouses have been out of portable air-conditioners and fans on an off since May because people are hot and have no air-condition installed. The buildings are built to keep heat IN. Not out.
No air con, buildings designed to keep heat in, not even ceiling fans, no drinking fountains, windows that don’t open in buildings, and we expect people to work in those buildings, in their full uniform which has no ‘hot weather’ option – I mean what employer is going to provide short sleeves and shorts for that one week every three years where it gets above 25/80 degrees? – windows that don’t open on public transport, and often no shade while waiting for said public transport, we have heaters and insulation and draft excluders, we buy black cars and dark clothes, we buy sunscreen for our holidays in Spain, then forget where we put it, when we find it and apply it we sweat it off again because we’re not used to the heat, we walk places rather than drive and even if we drove, our cars don’t have proper air con and we don’t have covered parking, school playgrounds and public parks have no shade, people don’t have pools so kids play out all summer in the heat. We don’t have ‘American style’ large fridges or freezers with ice makers and they break down when competing with hotter than usual ambient temperature, most of us don’t even own cool boxes – or if we do it’s at the back of the shed full of spiders.
So yes, we have to be told it’s going to be hot. And we have to be warned to check our elderly neighbours and to help them take the blankets off their bed or to swap to a summer duvet, to suggest they have a cold drink instead of a pot of tea and take off their cardigan.
Because we only know people who got sunstroke on their holidays abroad.
And we have never in our lives known anyone who died from the heat.
To anybody who thinks it’s funny when people die, you can go fuck off a tall bridge.
I live in Phoenix. It’s going to be 115F/46C degrees today. This is nothing unusual for this time of year. And yet every year we lose people to the heat. I can’t imagine what super temps must be like when you are not used to it. England, Quebec, and most of Europe’s home were designed to keep heat in. Not let it out. So instead of giggling like evil children over someone else’s horror, try being a little more understanding at the very least of what they are going through.
^^^ *I live in Actual Hell high-five*
It’s totally easy to live in 115 – 122 F or 46 – 50 C if you are a) used to it and most importantly b) HAVE AIR CONDITIONING AND INFRASTRUCTURE TO DEAL WITH IT
I will take 115 with air conditioning available over 93 with no air conditioning any goddamn day of the week, even if I have to be outside/working because I can get my happy butt back indoors, cool down with the AC at 75 or even 78, and then pop out again. Without AC you can’t do that and it’s much harder to manage.
(btw if you’re having trouble sleeping because of heat, roll an ice pack up in a towel and put it at the foot of the bed. Ditch the flat sheet; fitted sheet and a really light duvet is all you should have. I have a silly Transformers one from Target that hardly insulates anything but is just enough weight to make me happy. Drink lots. Go slow. Eat salty things, and don’t just drink water. For those who like skirts, skirts and light dresses are your friends; I have a special selection for IT’S TOO HOT TO CLOTHES days–light, loose, well away from the body and importantly COTTON. Poly knits are murder. You’ll be amazed by how much you cool off by taking your socks off. Damp down the patios under your windows, keep your blinds drawn, limit cooking–rotisserie chicken+ a solution of lemon juice, peel, ginger, sugar and soy sauce, refrigerated is a good meal over rice and with cucumbers in vinegar. Be careful and check on your neighbors.)
In most places where this is an issue people are aware that it’s an issue, that it’s happening more frequently, and that we need large scale infrastructure changes to reduce deaths in the future.
The thing is, for every small thing we can do (eg. adding a maximum working temperature as well as the minimum we already have) there’s several things that are either going to be huge projects taking half a century (rebuild/remodel the majority of residential housing in the entire country anyone) or just aren’t financially viable because it’s not that bad yet, like the uniform thing, or installing air conditioning units in residential areas and schools. And then there are things that are just complicated, like making sure everyone over 65 knows all the “everyone knows” things for living in hot weather when that generation grew up putting a vest on “just in case” of cold weather.
So the “get with the program, global warming is happening you idiots” comments aren’t helpful either.
