#172: Taika’s Thruple, Bisexual Bachelorette, Sinead’s Rememberings Bang On
-
- Society & Culture
Well what a week it’s been. An all night party at Taika Waititi’s Sydney pad has tongues wagging, meanwhile the Bachelorette is Bi, and men and women will battle it out for her affections.
Reconciliation Week has kicked off, and we reflect on the fight for Indigenous recognition and non-Indigenous Australia’s responsibilities in moving forward.
Sinéad O’Connor has penned a memoir, and spoken with the New York Times about how she saw everything unfold in the early part of her career.
And some short reads on revenge bedtime procrastination and adult apartments have us screaming in agreeance and shame all at once.
Meanwhile Myf is banging on about the Tina Turner doco, and Zan is bathing in public art.
