If you had to rank your sex life between 1 to 10, where would you land? 

According to a recent survey, nearly half of Australians are unhappy with their sex lives, putting us well below the global average.

So what's going on? How do everyday relationship dynamics create barriers to intimacy, and how can you create a safe environment to speak your mind in the bedroom?

What would you do if you discovered while grieving your partner that they had been unfaithful? 

How do you process the mixed emotions of betrayal and regret, and should you keep the secret?

Do you pay attention to unit prices at the shops?

Maybe you even know the exact time your local supermarket discounts things so you can swoop in and grab a bargain.

What if supermarkets started using those same tactics on you? With the rollout of electronic shelf labels — those little digital screens replacing paper tags — prices can be updated instantly at the push of a button.

It's becoming more widespread in Australia, and although it's not inherently problematic, some are concerned that the way it's being used overseas could have implications for Australian shoppers. 

Ever experienced a toxic workplace?

Nearly two thirds of Australians have — and 42% of them left their job because of it, according to SEEK research.

As workplace culture makes headlines following the fallout between radio duo Kylie Sandilands and Jackie O, we look at how to recognise toxic behaviour, and what you can do about it.

Australia Post has warned the day will soon come when it delivers its last letter, with the rising cost to provide the service outstripping demand.

While snail mail enthusiasts are clamouring to keep the art of letter writing alive, the volume of letters we're sending each other has dropped off a cliff, to levels not seen since the late 1930s.

So what might a post-post world look like, and how will the record of history we leave behind change without letters?

The way we interact with digital spaces has changed dramatically since the inception of the internet.

With the spread of artificial intelligence, the challenge of fully understanding this new digital landscape — the platforms, the politics, the problems — is a big one. 

Aiming to be "AI literate" sounds like a reasonable goal, but is a concept like literacy even enough to cover something as vast and fast moving as AI?

And if we don't understand it, how are we going to equip our kids to manage this brave new world they're entering?

Crowded lecture theatres. Hours spent sprawled on the lawn between classes. Late nights watching bands at the uni bar.

For generations these were staples of university life. But with so much learning now delivered online, campuses aren't the hive of social activity they once were.  

Does that matter? Or are today's students missing out on the part of university that shapes them most?

Think about a piece of art that moved you — perhaps it triggered a treasured memory, or transported you to a different time and place.

When we talk about the public value of the arts, we often focus on how it makes us feel, the way it helps us to connect with each other.

It's a powerful force that can evoke strong emotions, change our perspectives and even motivate us into taking action, but could it save our lives?

And how do we make more room for art in our lives when we're already overwhelmed by the demands of daily life?

Australians are among the highest consumers of textiles, per capita, in the world, buying an average of 55 garments of clothing per year.

The over-consumption of fast fashion is a big problem to solve, and one simple solution is to opt out.

Some shoppers are embracing low- or no-buy experiments to give their spending a bit of a reality check, and reassess the way they feel about what's in their wardrobe. 

So how realistic is this idea, and could it help address the 220,000-tonne elephant in the room?

It wasn't long ago that zero-alcohol drinks were a niche product. Now they're everywhere, including on supermarket shelves, looking almost identical to the real thing.  

New research warns these drinks — along with "low sugar", "low carb" and "low calorie" alcohol products — are blurring the line between drinking and healthy living.

Is it time for tougher regulations?
