This School Letter Is Nightmare Fuel & Just Throw Away Your Iron

Just when you thought the summer school holidays couldn't get any longer, one Australian school has announced it's finishing up next year in NOVEMBER. Yes, November. Cancel Christmas. You'll be too busy organising vacation care. Meanwhile, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is back, this time with a post-partum Angel. Has motherhood become the ultimate marketing strategy? Plus, a six-year-old drew a picture of what she wants to be when she grows up and her school turned it into an AI-generated image of her adult self, and the internet is furious. I guess we're outsourcing childhood imagination to ChatGPT now. And, RIP the humble iron. Apparently nobody's ironing anymore, and Stacey would like to know if we can make that official. RECCOS: Stacey recommends an entire city. Brisbane. No notes. Monz is thriving in middle-age with a stick vaccuum that lives in her carport - the Dyson Konical + Auto Empty Dok Amelia recommends the Big Boob T-shirt from Adelaide label Blue Sky Day. Finally, a T-shirt that understands ample bosoms. Skip the 12-week waitlist.

The motherhood rules nobody asked for

Laura’s algorithm has been serving her a lot of parenting advice lately, and some of it is making her question decisions she already feels good about. Today, we’re unpacking Dr Erica Komisar’s views on daycare, the pressure to put motherhood ahead of everything else, and why so much parenting content leaves mums feeling guilty. We’re talking about how social media algorithms can turn one little doubt into a whole feed of reasons to second-guess yourself, the difference between guilt and feeling judged, and who gets to decide what makes a good mum. Plus, why parenting advice needs a little more nuance, and how to find your own way through the noise. A huge thank you to Toyota for supporting this episode of Bump with Steph and Laura.
