 Hello and welcome to Adulting, and the eighth episode of Let’s Talk About… a broadening of Adulting... where that was about all of the things we never got taught in school, this is almost like seminars on life; where my audience (that's you!), get to chat anonymously about things they couldn't necessarily discuss over lunch with their friends, or feel like they don't have anyone to talk to about whatever it may be.  To get involved, follow me on Instagram @oenone, where every Tuesday we vote on a topic and every Wednesday we dig deep. Let’s Talk About… Blake Lively. The submission read: Blake Lively/ women being piled on / cancelled on the internet. Whilst this conversation was initially about the two camps of support for either Justin Baldoni or Blake Lively, after the press fallout from the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s mega sell out It Ends With Us, it was also about the way famous women are built up only to be torn down. Anne Hathaway, J Lo, Cara Delevingne, Jennifer Lawrence just to name a few, have over the past decade, fallen in and out of favour for sometimes indefinable reasons. I had so many messages on this, perhaps this shows we are more interrogative of what content we are being fed, and how easy it is to be manipulated by media, as opposed to instances in the past when everyone turned against Keira Knightley or Julia Roberts and everyone kinda just accepted that they loved to hate with little introspection as to why. Article from The Cut - https://www.thecut.com/article/domestic-abuse-survivors-react-it-ends-with-us-drama.html I hope you enjoy  as always, please do rate, review and subscribe!

The submission read: The feeling of a well-lived summer being underwhelming each year, and feeling disappointed. I was actually quite surprised that this one beat babies, they were tying for a long while, but I personally really understood the sentiment of this submission. I read this to mean, that we put so much store in summer, there is so much lore around the season, it’s the fun sexy season where nothing is off limits and the nights are long and the possibilities are endless, but perhaps as we get older, the nostalgia for that freedom we associate with summer is stronger than the truth of it, so we’re left wanting and bereft. I really enjoyed recording this episode... I hope you enjoy it, too! As always, please do rate, review and subscribe!

The submission read: What’s going on in the collective psyche of single ppl, why dating is so hard atm? Wow, firstly I have never had SO many dms on any subject. Where to start… well I guess the first thing to say is 99.9% of the messages were from women, and women are my main demographic, but also all of the submissions were about heterosexual relationships… more than happy to talk about queer love in another episode, it just didn’t come up this time. I had so much to say on this topic, I hope you enjoy :) as always, please do rate, review and subscribe!
