Yes. You should never block emergency services.

Just went downstairs and it’s a lot cooler! My son has finally fallen asleep but if he doesn’t cool down, him & I will be sleeping on the sleeper sofa 🤣

@ReignQueendom I think it’s being appealed, but yes, I agree

Apparently that UK judge that let three teenage rapists go free is known for light sentences for sexual crimes. The longest sentence was 36 months. He needs to be in prison.

I do not know how to explain this, but as a cat parent, you quickly learn that “absence of cat (chill)” and “absence of cat (suspicious)” are two very different kinds of silence.

My poor little man is so hot tonight he’s really struggling - if he doesn’t fall asleep soon, I may have to go for a drive in the car where I can turn aircon on and cool him down 😭

So true

I was in a female loo once & there was a trans woman who actually asked if she could use the women’s toilet - I told her of course she could. However, if a man all of a sudden walked into the woman’s loo, I would have been terrified - woman’s spaces are NOT for men!

Vote Restore Ban halal and kosher.

@marksandspencer - really supporting woman’s rights aren’t ya?! PATHETIC. This has nothing to do with being WOKE - this is about protecting women & keeping their spaces free for them only! I don’t even f’ing care if a trans women uses them - but not straight men thank you!!

So, jokes aside, to understand why the heat is worse in the UK than say Arizona for example, the answer is quite long... First it's the Humidity, it's far higher here. The UK's island location and prevailing south-westerly winds bring moist sea air, so heatwaves are often humid rather than dry. In contrast, many of the hottest US states (e.g., Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico) have dry desert heat where sweat evaporates quickly, so you actually feel cooler despite higher temperatures. Even humid US regions (like the Southeast) usually have widespread air conditioning to offset it. Second, the buildings and Infrastructure that we have all are designed to Trap Heat, not Release It. UK homes are built for cold, damp winters: thick brick/stone walls, heavy insulation, small windows, and designs that retain warmth. During a heatwave, they turn into ovens, solar gain through windows builds up, and there is poor ventilation or passive cooling features like overhangs, shutters, or light-coloured roofs. Plus, poor air conditioning: Only about 5% of UK homes have AC (vs. ~90% in the US). It's not standard because it's rarely needed most of the year, but during spikes it's a nightmare. Also, retrofitting is expensive and tricky in old terraced houses or listed buildings. This extended to public transport, schools, offices, and even hospitals as they often lack cooling. Finally, most importantly, we have zero acclimatisation. Meaning it's just as hot at night as it is during the day. Britons aren't physiologically or culturally used to sustained heat. We're properly white! So, a sudden jump from typical UK summer temps feels extreme, and the body struggles more without gradual adaptation. Heatwaves often bring "tropical nights" (temps staying above 20 °C), so homes don't cool down overnight. You can't sleep, recover, or anything which just compounds fatigue, dehydration, etc. Drier US heat often cools significantly at night. That is all topped up with the fact that we have longer summer daylight at the UK's higher latitude meaning more hours of solar heating. Hope this long explanation that no one wanted clears this right up...

Americans explaining to Brits how 26 °C (79 °F) isn’t hot while living in air conditioned detached houses made of wood.

I also took 3 dips in the water - 1 with my son & 2 by myself as I think it was too cold for him 🙄 but it was still an absolutely fab day & tbh, a fab weekend since Friday! 🤍 truly blessed ✨🥹

I disagree. She’s a fab mum to Harvey; as for the others, she puts men & money before them - I really think she’ll do something bad to herself if something happened to Harvey - she wouldn’t cope, he’s her world. DY is a bastard for abandoning his son. Harvey is a sweetheart 🩵

@That1girlMelly The mother is unhinged.

Mackenzie Shirilla's jail call with her mom before trial: the two discuss the upcoming trial surrounding the deadly crash that killed Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan. During the call, Natalie repeatedly reassures Mackenzie that the crash “is not your fault.” Throughout the call, Mackenzie appears confident she will be found not guilty...while vilifying the victims and their families. After hearing this jail call for yourself… what do YOU think? Warning: Explicit Language⚠️ #MackenzieShirilla #DominicRusso #DavionFlanagan #TheCrash #Netflix #NetflixDocumentary #TrueCrime

@cra46159 1. You’re not working in it 2. It is unbearably HUMID - big difference 3. When you go on holiday, you have a POOL or THE SEA or THE OCEAN Use your head!

Some pics from our walk yesterday round our local rec & then Frensham pond today (which was heaving so couldn’t get a lot of pics) ☀️💛 happy bank holiday Monday everyone xo

@MarkFusetti There was no attempt to break and she has threatened to do this before to Russo whilst they were driving together. She deffo had a rage moment and plugged her accelerator to full and didn’t let go. She did dry runs on that road as well prior.

Just watched this documentary. Here’s my opinion. One of three things happened in that car. 1. She had a medical episode and blacked out. 2. They got into a fight and she said she was going to crash the car, with no real intentions of doing it, and hit a point of no return, panicked and crashed. 3. They were speeding down the street trying to be cool and lost control. I don’t think from the time she turned on that street calm and safely did she turn into a murderer in a matter of five seconds. She deserves jail for sure but 15 to life for double murder is absurd. 10 years manslaughter would’ve been a fair sentence. And before you ask, if that was my son, I would absolutely want the person to spend the rest of her life in jail. That’s not how it works

@nikthehat Yes, because slamming your accelerator at 100% and no attempt to break and deliberately veering off the road into a building is completely normal driving… 🙄

I’m going to make the first court prediction since I called the release of Bill Cosby. Mackenzie Shirilla will not serve the full sentence before either a retrial or a complete pivot making the language for “murder” clearer in Ohio by 2030-2033, and she’ll be released by proxy as vehicular homicide is just that—vehicular homicide. Murder is not what she is guilty of, and they’ll never prove intent or motive to a jury, period.
