@OneInterestingFact yall across the pond have -got- to insulate your homes
it blows my mind as an american that people live in uninsulated homes by choice in 2026
i dont even use an AC in summer, because opening and closing the windows at dusk and dawn keeps the place livable
heat in winter? it's cheaper if the heat stays in the building
only half?! basically every single building in the US is insulated
