The Writer Who Lets Her Husband Cheat

Question: Why was the latest season of The Bachelorette US cancelled days before release, costing more than US$30 million? Well, it’s got something to do with stunt casting and a very disturbing video leak…

Also, millennial feminist icon Lindy West has written a memoir about being in a happily married throuple. The problem is, the Internet has seen her unvarnished honesty and unilaterally decided her book is a lie. Does West protest too much? Or do we have a problem believing a woman could ever be happy beyond the white picket fence?

Plus, nap times, little lunch and a giant TV on wheels. Things we miss from primary school that should definitely be part of the workplace, pls.

And, Chappell Roan and Coldplay kiss-cam star Kristin Cabot have some facts for us about public shaming.

Oh, and how about those Matildas? The lessons we can only learn from (almost) winning.
