@johndark
Omg too funny bc it's true!!
@johndark promptly hangs up goes back to bed 🛌
@johndark I absolutely believe that climate change is happening and that we need to be doing much more about it.
But I cannot find a source that would confirm the statement in the second panel. The best I found is that the last 7 days was the hottest 7-day period on record (which goes back 44 years).
The 7 hottest days ever all happening in the last 7 days and the average temperature of the last 7 days being the highest of any recorded 7-day period are pretty different statements.
