You might have read about a big ship over the last week. A very big, very stuck ship. On Tuesday of last week, a 400 meter long, 200,000-tonne ship became wedged across the Suez Canal, in Egypt. So why is this a news story? And why can't we stop laughing at the memes it's generated? 

Plus, a couples counselor claims that the most common reason couples fall out of love and stop being intimate is because of a pursuer-distancer dynamic that develops over time. So what does it mean if you're the pursuer or the distancer in your relationships, romantic or otherwise? 

And, is botox the new baseline of beauty standards?
