    going outside is like stepping in front of a pizza oven rn. makes me want to shove a texan oil billionaire into an actual pizza oven headfirst in the popular video game Minecraft.

    Last summer there was a massive heat wave here that got bad enough that you couldn't ride the light rail at times because the heat was messing with the rail or cables or something.

    Like I'd seen the rail closed because things were too icy, but because they were too hot?

      Fortunately this heat hurts the cars even more, especially when they're just idling in traffic or a drive-thru.

      Unfortunately, like all climate change consequences, this mostly just hurts poor people.

      Have you been in a car for long periods when it's really hot?

      I think the impact will be building more heat-resistant rails.
