'Upset' vegan family write note to neighbour who was making them 'feel sick'
Australian Facebook is up in arms over a letter from an "upset" vegan. Someone from Perth, received a letter from a vegan neighbour complaining about the meaty smells emanating from her kitchen. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter It read: "Hello neighbour, could you please shut your side window when cooking please. "My family are vegan (we eat only plant-based foods) and the smell of the meat you cook makes us feel sick and upset. We would appreciate your understanding. Thanks, Sarah, Wayne and kids." But people were divided about whether the request was reasonable or not after the note circulated on Facebook. One said: "I feel like this was a genuinely polite letter, and it’s true to smell of meat is overpowering. It would be nice to see some respect for your neighbours, and not publicly trying to shame them for holding strong ethical morals." "This is the like the nicest way they could possibly ask," another said. "What is wrong with some people?! They’re simply asking for a different window to be open that isn’t adjacent to their home. Gosh, some people just like to complain I swear." But others were less generous. One wrote: "I’d be cooking up bacon and steak every day and putting a fan behind it and directing it out the window!" "If they don’t like the smell then they can close their window," another said. Have your say in our news democracy.

Brits call for Sindy movie to rival Barbie
Brits call for Sindy movie to rival Barbie
The internet has been obsessed with Greta Gerwig’s Barbie for what seems like centuries now – but some people on social media have picked a rival team. Sindy was a British doll manufactured just four years later than her American counterpart. A little less glamorous and, perhaps, more realistic, Sindy still holds a place in the hearts of many in the UK. The toy even marks its 60th anniversary this year, after its original 1963 launch. Now, people are calling for the rivalry to get a reboot – and some even want a Sindy movie. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter One Twitter user said: “There should simultaneously be a slightly less polished and expensive Sindy movie.” Another said: “Despite all the hullabaloo this weekend, I wish to re-pledge my loyalty and devotion to the one true queen, #TeamSindy.” One person referenced the filmmaker Ken Loach, whose work has often focused on social issues prevalent in working class Britain, adding: “Looking forward to the Ken Loach directed film about Sindy.” It comes as Barbie celebrates the biggest opening weekend for a film by a female director, grossing $162m over its first three days. The obsession with the American toy has spread far and wide with people dressing up for the occasion and queueing around the block in many places to get a look at the movie on the opening night. And as Barbie-mania shows few signs of abating, it looks like Sindy has a bit of catching up to do. Have your say in our news democracy.
