Happy Thursday Dolls!

This week we’re taking a look at the rise in YouTube apology videos, chucking stuff at musicians, TikTok social queues and more… let’s get into it!

THE POLYESTER PODCAST (S'ouvre dans une nouvelle fenêtre)

We're on episode seven, and the fight we've all been waiting for has finally taken place: Kourtney and Kim have sat down to discuss their ongoing feud. But what does the confrontation tell us about the sisters? And has one Kardashian come out on top? MJ and Marie sit down to dissect; from how power really is the root of all conflict, to how the family are intent on securing their reputation as an empire.

Exploring TikTok’s Guidance on Social Cues, Eye Contact and Friendship (S'ouvre dans une nouvelle fenêtre)

While there isn’t really an area of life that the pandemic and lockdown didn’t touch, they seem to have had a particular effect on our interpersonal relationships. Jemima Skala explores how we’re searching for new intimacies online.

Stop Chucking Stuff at Musicians: Pink Doesn’t Want Your Mam’s Ashes (S'ouvre dans une nouvelle fenêtre)

Where has gig etiquette gone? From Pink receiving a wheel of brie and Bebe Rexha being rushed to hospital after having a phone thrown at her - Michaela Makusha takes a look at why this is happening.


Apology Videos: How Celebrities Have Traded Sorrys for Shock Factor (S'ouvre dans une nouvelle fenêtre)

With the dreaded Colleen Ballinger apology video being everywhere, Mia Autumn Roe explores how these disingenuous acts became a PR stunt.

Good Question is a Love Story for New York Blackness and Queerness (S'ouvre dans une nouvelle fenêtre)

Good Question is an editorial by Sigourney Norman and Plum Thorne capturing the view of the world through the lens of a non-binary queer person, what that means for capturing black femmes and our connection to ourselves and our environments.

See ya next week!

XOXO,

The Polyester Team <3
