      This unfortunately isn’t limited to private news companies, just saw yesterday a lovely beach photo together with the news about the heatwave in Swedish public service.

    Last week was an absolute nightmare and this weekend will be apocalypse! 38+ till Monday! I honestly don’t know how anyone can deal with this without any kind of air conditioning.
