It has fennel type leaves but is the size of a 6 foot Christmas tree with flower buds just appearing now. The stem is round and sturdy and the is no bulb at the base.
The thing that concerns me is its similarity to very poisonous plants like poisonous hemlock and fine-leaved dropwort. I would take it to a local nursery or contact a university with a horticlutre department and try to get it positively identified. It could be fennel, but I'd be sure. Look over the fence in the neighbor's yard and see if you see anything similar growing.

There’s this weed that’s popping up everywhere in my garden, I did some research and it looks a bit like poisonous hemlock, is it actually?
I don't think so. Hemlock has more ferny leaves than your photo. Also hemlock has purple spots on it and pointy leaf ends. This article tells more:

Here is a guide to weed identification in Brisbane:

Hello, We loved and appreciated the response that we got regarding the pictures I uploaded!! (especially the identification of my cousin the football player which was obviously an accident in loading lol) but now I’m having more of those plants pop up and the information you guys gave us -- we googled images and I don’t think it’s that type of plant. I took some, hopefully better photos a little closer up, and hoping to get either a confirmation or a new answer as to what these little guys are growing in my windowsill garden. I loaded the pictures in order from when the first sprout pops up with partial seed shell still on the plant to where it gets taller and develops a fuzzy interior. Thanks Again! Love your site! ??
If you have a succulent or cactus nearby, then that could be the culprit. Unfortunately, it resembles many, many plant seedlings. It will be hard to pin down until it grows some.
Keep an eye on it until you see anything else happen. Likely, it will continue on slowly if it is a succulent, or cactus.
It is very difficult to ID a seedling this young. I will go out on a limb and suggest pokeweed, Phylotacca americana, due to the slightly pinkish stem. Birds eat the berries and the seeds end up anywhere and everywhere. Here are some good pictures of pokeweed seedlings: https://www.oardc.ohio-state.edu/weedguide/single_weed.php?id=112
They are planted outside of a Burger King in Maryland. They come in 2 colors, yellow and red The stems are square and the crushed leaves smell very minty. My guess is Lantana. They are quite attractive, especially this late in the flowering season. Thanks Howard
Yes, they are lantana and here is more information:

My mom has this house plant that she obtained some time ago. We don't know what it is and we don't know how to take care of it. We noticed it wasn't doing so well inside our house during the spring and summer this year so, we left it outside on our back porch and it grew really big and healthy. I would like to know what kind of plant it is so we could take care of it better.
It looks like a corn plant. Here are care instructions.

I spotted this in a garden in Devon and, ever optimistic, thought I would look it up when I got home to Aberdeenshire to see if it was hardy enough to survive here. However I can find no trace of it in my books or on the internet. The shrub was woody; about eight feet tall. The leaves are about two inches long and the flower seemed to be fully open. The picture was taken in September. Can you tell me what it is and if it would survive in a cooler climate?
This appears to be a Rose of Sharon or Althea - a double blooming variety. The single blooming variety takes more of the traditional Hibiscus traits. They are very versatile and can survive much cooler temperatures than their tropical Hibiscus counterparts. They will go through a dormancy during the cool seasons and resume growth when temperatures warm back up.
