    SUBS: Wait, There Are Four Styles of Friendship?

    Are you a ‘butterfly’, a ‘firefly’, or — heaven forbid — a ‘wallflower’? Because yes, it turns out your friendship style can be sorted into four distinct buckets, a theory currently doing the rounds courtesy of Mel Robbins. Mia, Holly, and Em are unpacking the different types of friendships to figure out why some of us are high-energy social chameleons while others have a social battery that hits 0% the second a group chat goes past three participants.  Also, is this the only possible universe in which Mia Freedman could ever be accurately described as a ‘Wallflower’?

    How To Be Liked By Absolutely Everyone

    Popular culture has decided that men wearing ‘slutty little shorts’ might be the only way to combat global anxiety. From Harry Styles’ new video to Taron Egerton’s psycho dance to the $120 million ad starring Chalamet & Bunny, we’re not mad, just curious.   Speaking of anxiety, a political earthquake just hit regional Australia, and every sitting politician is currently doing a little nervous wee. Yes, we’re unpacking the 30-year-coming rise of Pauline Hanson’s One Nation. Support independent women's media - SUBSCRIBE HERE Some people think a 30-minute journey only takes 15, and it turns out there is a very specific name for people who live with this brand of chaos: ‘time optimists’. Holly and Clare identify, but is being a ‘time optimist’ a sign of a positive outlook or are you just, as punctual Amelia hints, just a lil’ bit selfish? And: People who are liked by everyone are all good at one specific thing. Here’s how to fake it.

    It’s time for some Scurrilous Gossip and today Mia wants to talk about Kris Jenner’s face. After debuting a very ‘refreshed’ look last year, the internet is in a spin, with claims her facelift is - wait for it - slipping. We unpack exactly what that means for the rest of us. Then, Em takes us behind the velvet curtain of the fashion world with some BTS intel from The Devil Wears Prada 2. So, who is the real 'Emily'? And a new high-stakes newsletter claims Harry and Meghan are ‘wildly unhappy’. But does it ring true?
