"..My family lives without air con­ditioning, except for one antique, ­semi-comatose window unit that “cools” the bedroom to approximately the same temperature as Dallas at dusk..."

I bet that is BS.

Don’t you just love that “Dallas at dusk” hooey? Dallas, TX doesn’t cool off below 90s at dusk.

I don’t think it is BS.
I don’t have AC, have never had AC, except in an apartment I lived in for about a year.
I installed one (large window unit) in the first home I bought, the electric bill went up over 400 extra dollars a month (I remember the dollar amount 40 years later because my wife never let me forget it).
Tore out the AC unit and just installed ceiling fans.
My wife and I started out kind of poor and needed every dollar we had for more important things.
The kids always bitched about no AC, told them if they paid for it I would install it, guess it just wasn’t THAT important to them either.

A/C efficiency has soared in recent years. And window units have always been he least efficient. If she wasn’t such a libtard she would get a new efficient unit and it would cool her bedroom to a comfortable temperature all while using a fraction of the electricity. Then if she took a few showers her hubby want to might touch her. But then again, maybe not.
