Myf and Zan’s conversations around the differing values of culture in the wake of tragedy rises again, this time following the horrific terrorist attacks in Sri Lanka. On a completely other tip, an article on the rise of chill music has us divided, and the public ownership of pop stars in a time of personal pain, leaves a bad taste in our mouths. In a week of darkness, discrimination of the astrological kind in a share house gives us some light relief.
