I Wonder What the X-Men Do in a Heat Wave. Content Warning.
I wonder what the X-Men do in a heat wave. I realise this as I realise the lock on my bedroom door in my college dorm has swollen shut as the metal has expanded. And the windows are barred because of the time Tina from Humanities got slightly inebriated after drinking her stomach’s capacity of tequila and tried to jump out the window.

A Series of Unfortunate Decisions. Winner in Too Hot for This Challenge. Top Story - August 2026.
Two minutes. Two . Fucking . Minutes . That's how long it took me to realize that my fancy-schmancy 50-bucks-an-ounce waterproof sunscreen is, in fact, not sweatproof .

Things We All Pretend We Know How to Do
There comes a point in every person's life when you realize something deeply unsettling about adulthood: nobody knows what they're doing. As children, we assumed adults possessed information unavailable to us. They understood mortgages. They could balance a checkbook without asking anyone for help. They knew which wrench to use and the names of both screwdriver types. (Phillips, flathead) They could determine whether a melon was ripe simply by touching it. They could stand beside a broken car, stare into the engine compartment, and somehow diagnose the problem through facial expressions alone. Then we became adults and discovered the terrible truth: they're bluffing. We're all bluffing...

Not Cool, Gary. Honorable Mention in Too Hot for This Challenge.
Gary woke, not so much from sleep but from a heat induced stupor, and sat up on the couch. He rubbed the back of his head, sweat careening off the strands of his hair that was as wet as the floor where water had pooled from the back of the window AC unit that was precariously tipped back against the screen of the open window.

The Quick Dip Wasn't So Quick
"Jesus Christ it's hot!" yelled Michael. Michael went by Mike, except at work, and today he wasn't feeling the heat, so even hearing his name called was bad. It was nearly 100 degrees, and the heat index was somewhere between ridiculous and torture. As he stood there, in the line with his compatriots, feeling like he'd walked out of a rain shower, he walked forward with a menacing look.

Japan Is Trying to Cook Me Alive!
I always believed I understood hot weather. I grew up in Cameroon, so I have spent plenty of time under an unforgiving sun. I know what heat feels like. I know what sweat feels like. I know what it means to stand outside and immediately regret wearing clothes that require ironing.
