Meet the voices you've been waiting for

The ones who'll say what you're thinking but were too polite (or terrified) to voice out loud.

While you're still processing The Mistress’s uncomfortable truths, we thought you should know what else is coming your way. DOOM isn't just about one woman's take on infidelity—we're building an entire arsenal of perspectives that'll make your morning coffee infinitely more interesting.

THE DREAM ANALYSER
Subconscious revelations

Meet Dr Doomood, experienced shrink who writes to help you reduce your need to check ChatGPT or old fashioned Google every time you wake up in the morning. She knows you’re too busy to be scrolling to find out why you had that dream last night. As an expert mind reader, she’s come on board to help you by analysing her own dreams each day, leaving the revelations there for you to interpret. Just like Google but with a human touch and no unwanted ads clogging up your feeds afterwards.

Added bonus:
Dr Domood has helped thousands of patients over the years, and although it’s a bit unethical, she’d also like you to hear a bit about them. They pop up in her dreams regularly, and as such she can bring insights as well as funny anecdotes about, “that time I saw that….” 

THE SOLO CONFESSOR
Living on this planet as one of those single people

Our resident expert lives a solo life but does not enjoy it at all. Like just about anybody out there going about their days paying double to exist and pushed aside by others, or eating leftovers because the cat won’t, she does not revel in it. She does not see the point of celebrating herself by taking herself out for dinner. She speaks the truth about how hard life can be when there is nobody around to share life with. And yes she has heard all about how partners are crap anyway, and friends mean more than partners, but she’s not buying it. 

Our solo confessor debunks myths about how traipsing through life never getting the best table in a restaurant and having to say yes to “just the one?” every fucking time is only envied by people in unhappy relationships.

THE POLITICALLY INCORRECTOR
What she says rather than what she should have said

Our Politically Incorrector has spent years collecting the sharp retorts you wished you'd deployed in the moment.Don’t you hate smug people who tell you later how you should have handled a rude person who has come your way, and said something you just can’t get over, or did something to you that drove you crazy.

Our resident expert provides advice you can take on board and then use when the time is right. She knows, people are pretty predictable, the same insults fly from similar perpetrators, so get ahead of the game and keep some quips up your sleeve for the right time. 

THE SOCIAL SURGEON
Dissecting modern behaviours with surgical precision

Armed with razor-sharp observation skills and a complete set of bullshit-cutting instruments, our Social Surgeon performs delicate operations on influencer culture, one vapid post at a time.

She's particularly skilled at removing the tumours of manufactured authenticity and the infected wounds of performative vulnerability that plague our social media feeds.

She’s particularly harsh on influences, well because they deserve it, and because she gets quite irate at their ability to waste oxygen and Wi-Fi telling us unsubstantiated and entitled mistruths they can never be held accountable for. They can kind of say what ever they want with the only pitfall being trolling. That is, from people they call trolls. They love terms such as gaslighting and use it constantly and in every way that is incorrect. They own phrases that are trending in a raise to claim to be the originator of phrases such as “grey rocking”.

Our social surgeon has a razor sharp eye and a complete set of extremely sharp knives to cut through bullshit, one influencer at a time. 

Upcoming procedure: “One more self diagnosed influencer with ADHD has hit my feed, the diagnosis nailed because she procrastinates about unpacking her suitcase when she gets back from a holiday”. 

THE WORKPLACE WARRIOR
Corporate battlefield survival guide

Our resident expert has survived decades in Australian workplaces and lived to tell the tales. She's mastered the art of translating corporate bullshit, surviving open-plan office politics, and maintaining sanity whilst surrounded by people who like to “circle back” or find “touchpoints.”

From managing micromanagers to dealing with colleagues who reheat fish in the communal microwave, she's your guide through the daily battlefield of Australian corporate life.

Battle report: “How to cope when your coworking space looks more like a nursery and a playpen all rolled into one”.

WHY NOW? WHY THESE VOICES?

Because we're all thinking the same thoughts but pretending we’re not. Because someone needs to articulate why that thing your neighbour does makes you irrationally angry. Because the emperor isn't wearing clothes and we're the only publication brave enough to point at his nakedness and laugh.

Days Of Our Minds exists in the space between what we're supposed to think and what we actually think. Between polite society and honest observation. Between keeping the peace and keeping it real.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Raw insights delivered with surgical precision and a side of dark humour. The uncomfortable truths about modern life that everyone experiences but nobody discusses at dinner parties. Commentary that makes you think, “Finally, someone said it.”

We're not here to comfort you or tell you what you want to hear. We're here to hold up a mirror to the absurdities of contemporary existence and ask, “When did this become normal?”
