"If a Cactus Can't Survive This, Neither Can You"
____________________________
You mightāve seen recent headlines about saguaro cacti keeling over in Arizona after spending nearly a month above 110Ā° Fahrenheit (43Ā°C).
Not even a week later, The Washington Post ran this absurd story: āYour body can build up tolerance to heat. Hereās how.ā
Iām not linking to it. Thatās how bad it is.
Itās not just getting a little hotter. Itās getting so hot that saguaro cacti are deflating in the desert. They evolved roughly 20,000 years ago. Theyāve spent millennia adapting to a hot desert environment. They live up to 200 years in the hottest, driest environments on the planet. These cactuses are saying, āI canāt take it anymore,ā and sagging over dead.
And weāre being told we can adapt.
I got curious about what temperature the human body can actually withstand, and itās somewhere around 108Ā°F (42Ā°C). Thatās when your proteins start to denature. A wet bulb temperature beyond 95Ā°F (35Ā°C) can kill a person in about six hours. No amount of heat tolerance can save anyone from that.
It strikes me as just a little ridiculous that out here in reality, parts of the world are becoming absolutely uninhabitable, and wellness writers are just now telling us to start building up our heat tolerance.
It feels like weāre being prepared and conditioned to start blaming heat deaths on someoneās ālow heat tolerance,ā as if itās just another precondition that helps them rationalize indifference in the face of mass death.

POSTMASTER GENERAL STEINER: No.
PETERS: So the proposed rule basically coerces states to hand over their absentee voter rolls or face the consequences of not being able to vote by mail
