What's got my attention this week
Things to read, watch & listen to this weekend #112
Below the paywall today: one woman’s hard-won life wisdom, how to get your partner to stop giving you advice and JUST LISTEN, romance sobriety, “cute debt” (hmmm), sewing machines, perimeno hair loss solutions, the new The Handmaid’s Tale, the best book about female friendship I’ve ever read and more.
SCROLLING
• And on the subject of Jenny Saville, this is a great interview with her by Douglas (Shuggie Bain) Stuart.
• Pioneering tech legend Dame Stephanie (Steve) Shirley died last week and I am (selfishly) sad because I always wanted her to come on The Shift podcast.
• The power of thin skin.
• Love this on the over-60s arrested for Palestine action.
•
• on broken pots and broken people.
• Ageing is a privilege, no matter what Kris Jenner thinks. Love this, not least because it’s written by a young’un!
