An Influencer, A Toilet Rule & What Men Think We Really Look Like
You either know everything about popular influencer Matilda Djerf or nothing but after allegations were made about her behaviour — and yes, they do include a toilet incident or two — and Djerf responded with an apology, we just had to ask, 'What's it all about?' Plus, this is why we can't have nice things. Every year during the festive season we watch our favourite classic Christmas movies and every year, another one is deemed 'problematic'. This year is no exception. And why 20 years on, Keira Knightley is still being asked in every interview about Love Actually. Aaaand yet again, a famous woman is being torn apart online for her looks. It must be a Wednesday. It's Sydney Sweeney's turn to be in the headlines, but it's her response to the body-shaming trolls that has us asking if men actually know what women look like?

SUNDAY SPECIAL: How Do I Know If I'm Drinking Too Much?
Outlouders, it's the season of socialising, parties and most likely, more fancy drinks than you can shake a cocktail stick at. Which is why today we wanted to share this episode of MID with you (hosted by our very own Holly Wainwright). Holidays, celebrations, milestones. Wine o’clock, and the witching hour and the glass (or two) that marks the end of the work day. Alcohol is woven into our social lives in an almost invisible way. So what happens when you realise that the habit you thought of as your little helper is actually making everything worse? In this episode, we're talking to Shanna Whan from Sober In The Country about why Generation X women drink so damn much. Shanna says that 90% of the people who seek support from her peer-to-peer organisation are women aged between 40 and 60. That's us, friends. So why do Gen X women drink so damn much? How do you know if you’ve got a problem? And if it isn't you you're worried about, how do you talk to people in your life about their drinking? If this episode raised anything for you, here are some incredible resources: Sober In The CountryHello Sunday MorningAlcoholics AnonymousLife LineDrink Wise Want to hear Shanna's interview with Mia Freedman on No Filter?
