    Here she is! The cover of my next book Trivial Grievances. Over the past year I wrote a bunch of essays about what to do when life isn’t turning out the way you thought, it’s “funny and thoughtful” (direct quote from me) out in July. Please please preorder

    Yes ⁦⁩, the point not often made - people moan about boomers hoarding housing wealth but we all know some millennials who are going to be the beneficiaries of the housing boom when they inherit from it

    Good on Nine for pressing on with this important and pretty devastating story in the face of a well financed defamation case. Cannot believe the details in this

    As Lorena says on the podcast "the elephant in the room is systemic racism. I think there's this assumption that we belong behind bars, that we are an inherently criminal people... whereas time and time again... people are dying because of systemic neglect."

    This is a powerful episode & is part of the update to the Guardian's Deaths Inside database by Lorena & . Every person in this country should read the below article, but I'll thread some key facts below

    A group of aged care workers in SA have been left in “vaccine limbo” after being denied a second Pfizer dose. Some told to get it from GPs, who only have the AZ vaccine. United Workers Union describes the rollout as a mess of "outrageous proportions".

    You don’t have to tell me it doesn’t matter in scheme of things but I find jt so sad watching Khloe in latest season of Kardashians, she’s the thinnest she’s ever been and so, so, so insecure. She was happier &heaps more confident years ago, seems so crushed by the whole machine
