@ninawillburger Wonderful. Thanks for sharing this.

@notsoloud I suspect my idea of 'misbehaving on my last day on Earth' will just be 'eating all the desserts I skipped all my life', and possibly 'telling my 3 Fedi-crushes that they were my Fedi-crushes', so not the most exciting of live-streams. But I'll try my best to find something more misbehavey to do before #DoomedDienstag

(Hey! When I started typing the word, #DoomedDienstag came up as a suggested hashtag - we've made a difference in the world!)

@notsoloud Excellent. Boy am I going to have fun and misbehave today so.

@magsamond Oh yes it could have - oh no, another dilemma to fret about

@notsoloud I clicked on that in excited hope that #DoomedDienstag would be a thing. Well maybe it is now - now there are two posts on its timeline, at least. We're doomed together.

@TrueNorthSpice Haha - I know a bunch of reply guys who would disagree with that, probably at great length in multiple toots of more than 500 characters.

Mastocatastrophizing. When you worry about posting a photo because you’re afraid you’ll misuse a beloved hashtag. Like, is this #LichenSubscribe? Or #Mosstodon? And is that a window? Are we allowed toot windows when it’s not Friday?

@svelmoe @jeppe Det gør det! Det er afskyeligt. Jeg hørte en DR journalist siger, efter at den seneste temperaturmåling ikke havde oversteget den forrige måling, at det havde 'ødelagt chancen' for en ny rekord. Hans naturlige sprogbrug i denne kontekst var sigende og skræmmende.

@cruiser @jeppe True, desværre

@jeppe Mediedækningen af klimakollapset er utilgiveligt dårlig. Så mangelfuld, at det efterhånden næsten ligner desinformation. Eller i hvert fald ligner en bevidst afledningsmanøvre.

@onlinegoddess @brianjohnson South-facing garden or balcony used to be a des-res feature. And lots of window-light. Now we're seeking the opposite. The black-out blinds staying closed are increasingly common here too now.

@ygor Another new normal. I haven't seen space blankets yet, but black-out blinds are common here (Denmark) because of the long days with short, white-light nights in Summer. Now they are commonly doing service by day too, as heat-resisting measures.

@TheBreadmonkey Yes, same here in Denmark. It seemed to get normalised overnight - rain umbrellas are now everywhere in Summer.

Umbrellas as parasols. Extra tap-water stations around the city. Signs reminding us to drink water. The new normal.

#Aarhus

Local newspaper headlines are a culturally-specific climate diary in themselves.

"The best six hotspots in Aarhus for having outdoor sex in a heatwave"

"Are you looking forward to Winter too?"

"How to keep a cool head at work in a heatwave"

"Fewer guests at amusement park because it's too hot to go on a safari"

#ClimateDiary

Changed behaviours and heat-resistance tactics will differ, of course, depending where you live. Other everyday differences I've noticed in heated-up Denmark:

Municipal signs at outdoor events reminding people to drink water

Instead of the usual Summer tank tops & shorts, people covering up in floaty long and long-sleeved clothing.

In our walkable city, zig-zagging home, changing sides of the street with the trees, taking the route with most building shadow at that time of day

#ClimateDiary

I’ve been noticing little everyday escalations during this latest record-breaking heatwave. I wonder how soon I’ll stop noticing them because they’ve become the new climate-collapse normal.

City parks empty by day because it’s too hot to sunbathe

Empty cold-drink fridges in shops

People draping scarves over their hats as face veils

Rows of apartments with the curtains closed all day

The café’s window table with the great view is now the last, not the first, to be occupied

#ClimateDiary

@dilmandila Tillykke - congratulations! Beautiful cover too. So striking.
