We’ve got Marvel fatigue too. Maybe it’s not the heroes. It’s the multiverse.

Too many timelines, too many versions. When every film has 5 spin-offs, what’s the main plot again?

One good hero arc is all we need. 🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️

The UK aims to lower voting age to 16. At 16, you can pay taxes, work, and join the military… but unable to marry, drink, smoke, or go into armed combat until 18yo.

This new Election Bill still needs to pass Parliament.

What do you think?

If you’re in London by The Shard, look up! No, it’s not a bird… It’s not a plane…

It’s Superman!

#Superman certainly made London #LookUp

Taking over 2,000-man hours, four months, and a team of over 20 people working around the clock to create the 11-foot, 120kg sculpture, visible up to 40 miles away and suspended over 300 metres above ground within The Shard's iconic spire.

Another heat wave???

Save your shopping for the weekend so you can bask in the cool AC inside shops… Or catch a film or two… Or find a splash park…

Or just carry a water pistol to squirt grateful pedestrians.

@LifeInKilburn Can you please help decipher what this means?

The UK’s Met Office classifies it as a “Heatwave” only when temperatures reach 28C for 3 back to back days. 🥵

The AM Squabble classifies it as any hot weather that makes you seek A/C comfort inside a grocery store… 😅

Fight, fight, fight!

Just kidding, we don’t condone violence. But we’d love to see a witty, face-to-face squabble… with a few choice words thrown around that might draw a few gasps and maybe a “Daaaaa-amn!” From the crowds. 😅
