#208: Women’s Network Logo, Goblin Mode, Stolen Focus

If you don’t laugh you’ll cry right? And other things we find to say about the ill thought out logo for the government’s Women’s Network. Myf and Zan are weeding through the week to debrief on the most talked about stuff… and we’ve watched all of Byron Baes. We have thoughts. We’re also deeply connected with going full goblin mode. What is goblin mode? Let us explain. Meanwhile a dog performing Swan Lake is about the best thing you could hope for online, and we’re banging on about Johann Hari’s book Stolen Focus, and Jessica Stanley’s novel A Great Hope.
