🥵 Chat, is no social media a red or a green flag?

Happy NAIDOC Week 2025 to all of Australia’s First Nations peoples! This year’s theme is “The Next Generation: Strength, Vision and Legacy”, and we’re taking this week to celebrate the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples 🖤💛❤️. For non-Indigenous Aussies, check out this week’s featured articles for ways to show up and be a meaningful ally, not just this week, but always.

In other news this week, we really need to talk about this viral X thread that is absolutely taking me OUT — people sharing names they’ve come across that just go unnecessarily hard. Personally, my favourite so far is this gem:

What’s the wildest or most iconic name you’ve come across IRL? Mine has to be this very sweet little girl I met in primary school named ‘Peppermint’ 😭.

In other news, Wimbledon 2025 is officially in full swing 🎾 (pun intended)! And no, I don’t actually care about tennis — I’m here for the celeb couple sightings and the serving of looks. Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge? They absolutely slayed. That said, we need way more Challengers energy up in here 👀.

See you guys next week,

Q: ‘Burramatta’, the Dharug name for Parramatta, refers to which fish?

This love note is for the guy I went on a Hinge date with last week who doesn’t have any social media. No Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or even LinkedIn — sir are you in witness protection? At first, I thought it was a red flag, but then you asked me who Trisha Paytas was and genuinely thought “slay” referred to dragons. I realised then that you’re just a clueless man living under a rock. And honestly? It’s kind of hot. Anyway, I might be delulu, but let me know if you want to hang out again. I’ll even explain the whole Sister Squad lore from the beginning…

Overheard this borderline-yelling convo between two girls at a loud bar last week: “OMG, your nails are soooo pretty!”
“Thanks!! I just got them done.”
“Wait…I love the patterns — is that a sticker??”
“No, it’s just nail polish.”
“So like…it is a sticker?”
“No, it’s just nail polish.”
“Wait. So it’s not a sticker??”
“No?? It’s. Just. Nail. Polish.”
Sooo I guess we’ll never know if it was a sticker…😔
