I just bought a house with a conservatory which is the same temperature as the surface of the sun. On the flip side, we also have AstroTurf which I did hate but it's still green..

Reading this, I was beginning to suspect that you only really loved us for our climate. And, as our dreary summers begin to fade, your eye was being drawn to other, more drizzly places. Congratulations though. Having written an entire essay about the weather, you have now completely assimilated!

> I never thought that the usually perennial week of cloudy, rainy 17 degrees in July was load-bearing Head whips round - load-bearing?

Hop on the train, that load bearing week is happening in Manchester, 17° and rainy today!

I can relate. Especially the laundry bit, as I am in charge of the laundry of a family of four sweaty people.

Budget tips: (1) get a shower scrunchie (2) replace 300ml bottle of shower gel with 1l bottle of bath foam, it's the same stuff.

i'll go that far: absolutely cannot wait for October, and being able to function more or less normally again.

Wow! This really smells of chat gpt..

I had a mini heart attack at the "it's going to be 34 degrees today" bit, then realised you must have written it on Weds

(technically it is an essay about this perma-heatwave and what it does to us but really I think it's an essay about agency and sense of self? who knows) youngvulgarian.substack.com/p/the-great-... [free to read]

spent last week in the north east of England, was somewhere between 20 and 25 every day, and sunny. Highly, highly recommended.

Substitute mad cat lady for artist and this can be my obituary "proceeded to live her life as a somewhat-to-very mentally ill artist, operating outside of mainstream institutions but, all things considered, having as good a time as she could have."
