Communal, air-conditioned snooze spots would be sick. Who cares if it’s an IKEA?

    had to scroll most of the way down to read that it was during a bad heatwave. no doubt that was the first good sleep some of those people had in days, especially if they don’t have home ACs or they aren’t efficient enough

    also what better way to advertise your stores furniture then comfy people enjoying it?

      happens over here with mosques, when it’s really bad some people, usually workers or farmers who were doing something near by go to the mosque and take a nap since it has AC

      I am presently in Wuhan and it hasn’t dipped below 28°C in a couple weeks.

      It’s surreal, you wake up at 3 am for a glass of water and it’s 28°C. You wake up at dawn, the sun just peeks over the buildings and it’s immediately 30°. You go out to have breakfast, it’s 35°. By 11 am it’s 40° and it stays that way until dusk.

      It’s 50-80% humidity, as well.
