There’s a debate lots of Aussies have been having this week that we can’t quite make our minds up about. Strikes and protests have dominated the news here in NSW this week but there's one, in particular, that's got people fired up. Was it selfish? Or is disruption the entire point of a protest? 

Plus, in defence of a nation that’s being called ‘boring’ all over the Internet today - yes, it’s us.

And, our best and worst of the week, which includes impulse holidays, rebuilding bones, Roe and imposter syndrome…
