    Difficult women? Or a difficult system? | Female rage & shame in 2026

    How is it that the words of Epstein are being taken more seriously than words of thousands of women victims? And by 'more seriously', I only mean fractionally. What do we do with all this rage? Why do we feel so numb?

    The problematic business of True Crime

    Welcome back to another episode of Change My Mind, the podcast segment where you get to have a say too! Today we’re discussing the ethics of true crime - why we’re so morbidly fascinated with unsolved mysteries, whether it teaches us important information about criminal behaviour, and whether it adequately addresses serious questions about the police and justice system that so many true crime cases hinge on. Disclaimer: this video includes non-graphic discussion of SA and crime. Video essay recommendation by Maggie Mae Fish Sources on YouTube. Charli's Instagram Charli's TikTok Charli's Substack

    It's not you, it's minimalism.

    Pantone chose ‘cloud dancer’ as colour of the year for 2026 - a shade of white. Most people are buying greyscale cars and neutrals have never been more in. In 2026, the 'new ugly aesthetic' suggests that vibrant colour and garish design is a rebellion. So what are the origins of minimalism?

    When Did Self-Care Become Labour? | Hyrox & Lock In Culture

    Designed to go viral with a focus on intensity and ambition, Hyrox reflects everything that Gen Z craves right now: self-optimisation, a cult like community and extreme discipline. But... why?
