Oh no, kids today speak as differently to us as we did to prior generations, how cringe!

Let's go, there's a Gammelfleischparty at the club tonight.

Two old men sitting on a bench. One asks: "Are you going to watch the football game tonight?"
"Who's playing," the other asks back.
"Austria-Hungary," the first man answers.
"And who will they play against?"

Idk, gotta ask OP. But six years ago was 2020, a round year, another "warmest year since recording" that seems kinda chill from today's perspective. Though this is yet another made up explanation after the fact.

Exactly. That's why it is a trend that can continue.

Because for me, temperatures above 25°C just mean suffering, getting steam-cooked in my own juices, and the sun just burns me. Couple of years ago I got sunburned so badly I got sexond degree burns, blisters and all included. I'm most comfortable around 17-19°C, 20-25°C is beach weather to me.

I don't even have a dedicated cold weather kit anymore, I play the onion game for a few years now. My "winter clothing" consists of undershirts, t-shirts, hoodies and a rain jacket. If it gets too cold, I wear sweatpants under my regular cargos and start stacking underlayers, but that doesn't happen all too often.

Because polyester is the cheapest option. But there were people living in the Arctic before plastic bags sewn into clothing became a thing. And sometimes even these ancient ethnic clothing adapts into modern eras, like Sámi gákti that originally made from deer hide is nowadays made from wool, silk or even cotton.

Also, the Arctic isn't the only place where a linen shirt won't suffice all year long. But you can be veyr comfortable wearing a shirt, a nice hoodie and a light to medium jacket even in sub zero weather (though for some that's more an autumn combination for single digit temperarures above zero).

Remember when humanity had not almost eradicated two seasons through climate change and you could be a spring or autumn lover?

Polyester isn't needed. Layers of cotton (and sometimes linen) work well enough. Or any other plant fibre spun and knitted or woven into fabric. Wool and downs are also good at insulating, but they come with a slew of other issues (like everything else made from animals).
