Should You Leave Your Emotionally Unavailable Spouse?
This Reddit post gave me pause. First of all because the OP is a stay at home mom (Didn’t know those really existed anymore.) And also, because she laments that it is hard to be married to a slightly self-centered roommate rather than a husband or partner.

So, when Did You First Realise You Were Gay?
“So, when did you first realise you were gay?” It’s the inevitable question that really shouldn’t be inevitable anymore. The woman asking this time is sincere. It’s just her way of getting to know me — the man she’s been sat next to at a dinner party.

The Disappearing Art of Self-Respect
There is a discussion most people avoid because the minute it begins, the room usually splits into two (2) shallow camps. One side insists clothing carries no social meaning and should never be interpreted. The other treats any discussion of self-presentation as moral panic wearing respectable clothes.

I Tried To Text My Dead Mother
A few days ago, I walked into a store here in London for a bit of shopping and the sound that came over the radio immediately caught my attention. It was ‘Sound of Thunder’ by Duran Duran. A non-single, album track off of their 1981 eponymous debut album. I was stunned. Not 'Girls on Film' or 'Planet Earth'. 'Sound of Thunder'! It could only mean one thing: they were playing the whole album in its entirety. I started singing along while I was doing my shopping, and when it was over, I wanted to hear what would come next. It should be ‘Friends of Mine’. A few seconds went by and, sure enough, the opening beeping sound of ‘Friends of Mine’, the next track on the album, started. They were indeed playing the whole album! Hearing my favourite band’s debut album in a shop was quite the experience, and so I reached inside my bag for my phone. I just had to text my mother.
