Sydney Sweeney’s Raunchy Look In A New SYRN Lingerie Video Brutally Slammed: “Literally All She’s Known For”

Sydney Sweeney is nearly hitting her thirties. So there seems to be nothing PG-rated about her upcoming birthday celebrations.

The actress will turn 29 on September 12 and marked the occasion with a video for her upcoming Syrn collection.

But viewers claimed she just “humiliates herself on screen for money” and is making “plain adult content.”

Highlights

  • Sydney Sweeney kicked off her birthday month with a raunchy new Syrn campaign.
  • The ad saw her bake up a storm in the kitchen and smash an ingredient onto herself.
  • Critics claimed the lingerie ad looked like “plain adult content.”
  • The actress launched the lingerie brand earlier this year.

Sydney Sweeney is getting an early start on her 29th birthday celebrations by stripping down for her lingerie brand Syrn’s latest campaign.

As the brand’s website puts it, Syrn was born “from the heart, brains, and b**bs of Sydney Sweeney” and was launched earlier this year.

In honor of her birthday month, the Euphoria star launched a brand-new campaign for Syrn and released a teaser video for it.

The raunchy ad showed her dressed in lingerie, baking up a storm in the kitchen.

She didn’t seem to mind making a mess, smashing one of the ingredients onto her body. 

At one point, she went completely topless and held nothing more than two small cakes to cover her chest.

In the caption of her post, she asked fans to celebrate her birthday with the newest Syrn collection, dropping on September 1.

Another post on the brand’s Instagram page said, “Birthday suits look a little different around here.”

Critics tsk-tsked at the campaign, saying, “This isn’t advertising, it’s plain adult content.”

“I mean that’s her only talent right?” one asked.

“I always wonder if people who play these characters that humiliate themselves (but actually get some advantage for it) have calculated that their humiliation will give them a certain advantage, or whether they go in blind, and as a result of some pattern, they wind up successful,” wrote another.

“Fair play to her, at least she knows what’s she’s good at, and it ain’t acting,” one commented on her video

Fans, however, defended her and said, “She’s a gorgeous and s*xy chick, she’s just doing her thing, this stuff has always existed.”

Another said, “She really owns it, honestly respect. Her confidence is kinda refreshing.”

Sweeney’s new venture was all about creating a place where “women can move between all the different versions” of who they are, the White Lotus actress said in a press release amid the January launch of the brand.

“I love working on cars, I go water skiing, I’ll dress up for the red carpet, then go home to snuggle my dogs. I’m not one thing, no woman is,” she added.

Sweeney said earlier this year that her launch collection was meant to cater to different sizes and body types

Her first launch was designed to cater to different body types, thus including 44 sizes, from 30B to 42DDD.

Most of the pieces were priced under $100.

The actress said she was determined to focus not just on the looks but also on the comfort of the undergarments, saying “b**bs and bodies are like fingerprints” and everyone’s are “different,” she said at the time.

When she was young, the actress said she found it frustrating to find correctly fitting undergarments for herself.

“I was in the 6th grade with DDs. I hated the br* I had to wear,” she said in the press release.

“When I bought my first cute br* that actually fit, I wore it to pieces,” she added. “Designing for different bodies is a huge part of SYRN.”

Ahead of the launch, the Euphoria star stirred controversy with a stunt she wasn’t authorized to perform

Sweeney also stirred controversy with a stunt she performed a day before unveiling her new brand.

Sharing a video on social media, Sydney and members of her entourage were seen climbing the famous Hollywood sign on Mt. Lee in the Santa Monica Mountains.

They hung strings of lingerie on the iconic landmark without having permission for the stunt.

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which owns the Hollywood sign, said Sydney and her team were not authorized to climb the landmark.

CEO Steve Nissen shared a statement at the time and said the stunt “was not authorized by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce nor did we have prior knowledge of it.” 

He noted that the intellectual property rights to “the image of the Hollywood Sign” are owned by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. Anyone who intends to use or access the sign for commercial purposes is expected to obtain a license.

Critics tsk-tsked at her campaign video, while fans defended her and said her confidence is “refreshing”

PakarPBN

A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.

In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.

The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.

What’s Up Wednesday:August 2026 – PLAYWORKEATREPEAT

Hi friends! It’s time to link up with Shay for the August edition of What’s Up Wednesday. Here’s a little peek at what we’ve been up to during August. Thanks so much for stopping by!

WHAT WE’RE EATING

Some days, knowing what we’re eating is a mystery until I decide what I can make as I walk home from work. A big appetite after a busy work day is very motivating!

For the last couple of weeks, I’ve kind of had a rhythm going and have been making a few meals on repeat.

This week I’m still rolling with this rhythm, so our menu looks like this.

Monday

Pot roast, which I actually made on the weekend, and we had leftovers until Monday night. We love leftovers.

Tuesday

Chilli con carne.

This time I served it over half a purple sweet potato, sprinkled with cheese and coriander, with a dollop of sour cream and roast capsicum on the side because I forgot to chop it up and add it to the chilli.

Wednesday

Chicken, snow peas and cashews with rice. You can only see one lonely snow pea in the pic, but I promise there were more buried under the chicken.

Chicken with cashews and snow peas served with rice

Thursday

Chickpea and silverbeet casserole.

My younger son is keen to try more meatless meals as he’s thinking of becoming a vegan. But the good egg has said that’s a long-term goal for when he moves out, as he knows that cooking vegan would be a big ask for his meat-loving family.

I guess if he does decide to go vegan, I won’t be able to call him a good egg, will I? But good tofu doesn’t quite hit the same.

He’s got plenty of time to work out the vegan thing — I’m certainly not in any rush for him to move out!

Friday

Meatballs made with turkey mince and a mushroom gravy. We’ll serve these with mashed potato and veggies.

WHAT I’M LOVING

Sitting in the courtyard after work on warmer days and enjoying a cup of tea without worrying (sort of worrying) about the neighbours seeing me from their two-storey house next door.

I think I’m going to go to IKEA soon to get a sun umbrella for spring. It will look nice out there, and it will help me feel less self-conscious. It probably sounds a bit silly to be like this, but that’s where I am, I guess.

what's up Wednesday–Coffee cup and potted plant in the courtyard

August is the countdown to spring, and even though it’s still cool, I know that it’s only weeks before we hit my favourite time of the year. As always, I love my walks to and from work, especially when the sun is shining and the sky is blue.

what's up Wednesday–Sunny winter street on the way to work

I’m loving the spring flowers that are starting to pop up. These flowers sleep all winter and then, one week before spring, boom—they bloom!

august-whats-up-wednesday What's Up Wednesday August spring flowers blooming

They’re right outside our house as I walk in, and I was sure they weren’t open when I left home in the morning earlier this week. They probably were, and I just didn’t see them as I dashed by on the way to work.

Anyway, it was so nice to see them in the afternoon when I got home, because do you know what they mean?

Yep, spring is coming! Yay!!

WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO

On a sunny winter’s day in early August, I went to look for the GreenWay, which I can’t wait to explore in the spring school holidays. By the time I found it, it was starting to get late and, with no daylight saving, I didn’t have long until it got dark. So I pretty much found the GreenWay, snapped a couple of pics, then turned around and went home.

It was good for shaking off the funk I was feeling that day.

River along the GreenWay on a sunny winter day

We went reminiscing with Steve for the 150-year celebration of his primary school, spending most of the day at the fair they organised to mark the milestone. Haha, we enjoyed the day and the funny stories that went with it.

Primary school 150th anniversary celebration

Steve celebrated his birthday in August with a low-key dinner, just the four of us. My eldest son came over, minus his partner, as she works all sorts of hours and couldn’t make it.

august-whats-up-wednesday Balloons at a birthday celebration

I made chicken schnitzel, salad, cheesy baked potato and rice because everyone loves rice. Double carbs is a winning combo!

Birthday dinner with chicken schnitzel, salad, potato and rice

Instead of a cake, we did what we did for my birthday and went to a local cake shop and picked out a selection of sweets.

august-whats-up-wednesday Selection of sweets instead of a birthday cake

Hehe, I like the card we found for him.

Funny birthday card

WHAT I’M DREADING

Nothing, thankfully. Phew!

WHAT I’M WATCHING

Call the Midwife! I’d watched an episode here and there over the years, and I remember my lovely mum used to watch it, but I never got into it. It’s streaming on Stan over here, and I decided to give it a go.

Well, now I can see why it’s made it to 15 seasons — it’s brilliant!

I’m up to season 3, and every night Steve comes home (when he finishes before 1 am) and finds me watching. Initially, he wasn’t keen to join me for an episode because, you know… childbirth scenes. But one night he got home around 10ish and was too tired to move off the couch, so he joined me. Now he loves it too.

He closes his eyes during the childbirth scenes, though, haha!

I’m loving Call the Midwife so much that I said to him last night that I’m happy to rewatch seasons 1 and 2 with him so he can catch up. That way he’ll know who’s who and what’s happened, and I won’t have to keep stopping to explain!

WHAT I’M LISTENING TO

Big emotions in the playground!

I’m typing this during my lunch break, and the weather today is bleh, which might account for why I can hear so many kids in the playground sounding less than happy.

Why can’t we have world peace?

WHAT I’M WEARING

Layers to keep warm, although just this week, when it was warmer, I started peeling off a layer.

Here’s a denim jacket I bought from The Iconic.

august-whats-up-wednesday Denim jacket with a brown faux-leather collar

I’ve got a couple of denim jackets, but this one is a little different from the others because it’s boxy and has a brown faux-leather collar. I like it!

WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND

I’m not doing anything because, yikes, Cousin Connect got cancelled this Saturday!

I’ve shared before how we do Cousin Connect every month, and all the cousins get together. Well, August got away from us and, for the first time in about four years, we missed it. We just couldn’t find a weekend that suited everyone.

So I’ve sent out a poll in our family group chat with dates for September.

WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH

Cousin Connect!

And the spring school holidays! I’ve booked a couple of nights away — one in the city and one in Bowral. I’m also taking Steve to a fancy restaurant for a belated birthday dinner.

I haven’t told him where, so it will be a fun surprise.

That just about sums up August. Boy, did it go by so fast! I’m not quite sure where the month went, but I’m ready for September. I hope September is good to all of us!

Winter Outfit Ideas for Going Out: What I Wear

Working as an early childhood educator means my wardrobe has to be comfortable and washable. I need to be able to sit on the floor and get up again without offending anyone. And I definitely don’t want to be devastated if I get paint, playdough, or, God forbid, something else on my clothes.

So I have a minimal winter capsule wardrobe and a summer one. For work, I basically rotate between two or three outfits and wear pretty much the same things on repeat every day.

But I love clothes!

I love finding a great piece, putting outfits together, mixing and matching what I already have and getting inspiration from Instagram. And when I do have somewhere nice to go, choosing what I’m going to wear is half the fun.

So, let’s talk fashion.

We’re at the tail end of winter here in Australia, and even though it’s been a mild one (thank goodness), I’m still reaching for my winter layers. So I thought I’d share some winter outfit ideas I’ve put together from my wardrobe for those times when I have somewhere nice to go. It’s nice to wear something other than work clothes, don’t you agree?

Winter Outfit Ideas

A Really Nice Lunch

I love this outfit for a long lunch. The gold blouse makes it feel a little special, while the tailored pants and loafers tone it down a little, so it’s dressy without feeling too dressy.

Dinner Out

For dinner out, I’d go for something a little more dressed up. The flippy detail on the skirt makes the dress feel fun as well as dressy, and I love the way it moves when you walk. The black suede pumps are a classic, and surprisingly, they’re really comfortable too.

Winter outfit ideas: Reiss silk midi dress, beige coat and black suede pumps

A Winter Day Trip

For a winter day trip, I’d keep things comfortable but still put together. I like the mix of the cosy knit, short trench and white sneakers, and these loose straight-leg jeans from Uniqlo are such a winner! Perfect for a day of walking around and exploring.

Winter outfit ideas: knit jumper, khaki hooded trench coat and white sneakers

A Night Out

This is currently my favourite outfit for a night out, and it’s actually what I’m wearing on Friday. I love the combination of the tailored pants and cropped jacket.

Winter outfit ideas: tailored wide-leg pants, singlet top, cropped black jacket and black pumps

A Day Shopping in the City

For shopping in the city, I want to be warm and comfortable, and this feels just right. I love the chunky boots with the black coat

grey jumper, black military-style coat, leggings and chunky boots

 

So those are a few of my winter outfit ideas. Now I just need to get out of hibernation and give myself a few more reasons to dress up!

The Whole World Is Watching As Colombia’s Disturbing Femicide Epidemic Gains Traction

This story is part of Bored Panda Premium • 11 min read

By the time Second Lieutenant María Camila Mora Mahecha arrived in Bogotá on November 26, the afternoon drizzle in Colombia’s capital had given way to an overcast evening. Despite the drab weather and long journey, the 27-year-old had something to look forward to: she was going to the Beéle concert at the city’s Movistar Arena that night with friends.

Mora had driven 120 miles (195 km) from Duitama, where she was taking a specialization course, to a military complex in northern Bogotá known as Cantón Norte to pick up a friend. At around 8:30 p.m., Mora called to say she had arrived.

Watching from her apartment window, the friend reportedly saw Mora’s car parked near the Officers’ Club. Then they saw Mora begin to get out of the vehicle, before being intercepted by someone who urged her back inside and got into the passenger seat.

Minutes later, Mora called in a panic. She screamed in fear of her life and called for help. Then shots rang out. By the time her friend reached the vehicle, Mora was gone. Slumped across her lap was the body of Captain Pablo Andrés Másmela Zapata.

Perez Hilton’s Heartbreaking Question From Hospital Bed Revealed Along With The Answer His Family Won’t Share

Perez Hilton may be finding out that a hospital bed can be one of the loneliest places to be in, according to family friends of the Hollywood blogger.

The 48-year-old, born Mario Armando Lavandeira Jr, has been hospitalized since posting an alarming livestream, where he was seen harming himself with his children inside his Miami home.

“He’s about to find out who his real friends are,” said a family friend close to the controversial blogger.

Hang Out with Sean Hannity

Since the day Perez Hilton attempted to harm himself on August 4, he has been hospitalized under Florida’s Baker Act, a state law that allows someone to be temporarily taken for involuntary mental-health evaluation.

The blogger is “healing up” after receiving extensive stitching for his injuries, a family friend told the Daily Mail.

“Physically, he is going to be okay,” they added.

theperezhilton/Instagram

As Hilton receives treatment, his loved ones have reportedly been telling him that all his “friends” are “in [his] corner.”

But apparently this is far from the truth.

The family friend claimed that they are still trying to figure out how to break it to him that he hasn’t received a single bouquet or get-well-soon card to cheer him on as he recovers.

“All the ones he wanted to reach out, all the celebrities who he has mended fences with, all the ones who said he’s their friend. None of them are doing anything,” they told the outlet.

The blogger’s famous friends are nowhere to be found as he recovers in a hospital, a family friend claimed

theperezhilton/Instagram

The family friend said Hilton would be “crushed” if he found out and questioned where his famous friends were.

“It’s sad really, how little people are rallying behind him. People who have told him they love him, but where are they?” they asked.

It was in the mid-2000s when Hilton turned into one of the most recognizable celebrity gossip bloggers on the internet. 

He became infamous for closely following Hollywood stars and sharing rumors and unfiltered commentary about them on his website PerezHilton.com.

But his provocative style often landed him in feuds with celebrities.

Christopher Polk/Getty Images

For years, Hilton seemingly counted some of Hollywood’s biggest stars as his friends. The list seemed to include the likes of Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Adele, actress-singer Emmy Rossum, and TV personality Spencer Pratt, who named Hilton as his son’s godfather.

“People who said they were his friends have not spoken out, not shown any support, publicly or privately,” the family friend said. “They know who they are.”

Alec Baldwin’s daughter Ireland reportedly took a swipe at Hilton while wishing him well

Chris Polk/FilmMagic

The silence from Hilton’s friends isn’t the only thing his family is keeping from him.

They are also apparently trying to shield him from seeing messages that have left them “pretty offended.”

One of those messages came from Alec Baldwin’s daughter, Ireland, who posted saying Hilton “was a piece of sh** but I wish him well.”

Perez Hilton/Facebook

The family friend asked if it was necessary to “make a dig,” saying “Why go there if you want to say something, do you need to get your pound of flesh?”

“Those are the ones that we don’t want him seeing, we don’t need him to see people saying things like that, it’ll just make him spiral,” they added.

The family friend spoke about the future of his blog, saying content is likely to continue going up on his website. 

But the tone will not be as snarky or “mean” as it used to be, and it won’t be calling people out.

Hilton “has a bible with him, and he’s really reading it,” the family friend said 

Ethan Miller/Getty Images

Hilton, too, is currently focused on his faith and has been “really committed to it,” the family friend added.

“He has a bible with him, and he’s really reading it,” they said. “Praying.”

Hilton’s hospitalization came after a self-harm incident that took place on August 4.

Joe Raedle/Getty Images

Family members said he had been battling mental health issues before his sister found him locked inside his bedroom.

She later found him covered in blood, without clothes on, harming himself with a box cutter during a TikTok livestream.

His sister fled the house with Hilton’s three kids and her own kids, after which first responders arrived and “began treatment on scene for multiple lacerations and an overd*se,” authorities said.

“Genuinely feel for him but he sets a bad example for millions of messed up people,” one commented online

82 Painfully Relatable Posts From “Corporate Absurdity” For Everyone Who’s Ready To Retire

The job industry is in a bizarre place right now. It’s rough out there. Graduates are finding it hard to land even entry-level jobs. Even veteran professionals are struggling to get hired. AI hype is driving panic and layoffs. And raises and promotions aren’t guaranteed even for great employees and top performers.

‘Corporate Absurdity’ is a social media account that posts painfully relatable memes about work life that hit a bit too close to home and feel very personal. We’re featuring our favorites, and we think you should definitely show them to your boss, HR, and work besties at your next big meeting (which, let’s be honest, could have probably been an email).

A well-timed and relevant opinion piece in The New York Times notes how machine learning, which has been evaluating potential employees for more than a decade, is now being supercharged with another layer of artificial intelligence and surveillance.

“As employers continue to use A.I. to rationalize the process of identifying strong applicants, applicants have begun to use similar tools to game the systems evaluating them. The vicious cycle thus begins: Employers buy or build new tools, which job seekers cotton on to, and on and on. It becomes a futile ‘Spy vs. Spy’ showdown instead of a useful way to meet the ostensible goal of giving qualified people jobs,” writes Jessica Grose.

According to Grose, the job market is very tough for applicants right now.

“There are more applicants for open roles than there were a few years ago, and many employers do not seem to be looking for diamonds in the rough; human resources experts are telling me that corporations are ramping up their expectations and requirements because they’re in a buyer’s market,” she writes.

“Forcing employers to offer some kind of transparency and even feedback to potential employees would help correct the power imbalance and make the process of looking for a job feel at least slightly more human.”

One potential solution might be to turn back the clock and opt for old-school analog recruiting methods, such as referrals, local job boards, headhunters, and alumni networks.

According to mentorship and leadership development expert Ruth Gotian, Ed.D., Chief Learning Officer and Associate Professor of Education in Anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, there are four attributes that top performers share.

These are intrinsic motivation, perseverance, a strong foundation, and constantly learning through informal means, she writes in The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Business Performance.

However, it’s not enough to be great at what you do. How you communicate your achievements has a massive impact on your career path and growth.

The cold, harsh truth is that, in the corporate world, what matters isn’t just working hard but also being visible. Gotian emphasizes how excellence without visibility can often lead to workers being overlooked.

“Your work no longer speaks for itself. You must speak for it,” she stresses in a post on Psychology Today.

Working long hours and doing a good job may not lead to rewards, raises, and promotions in the corporate world.

“The rules of career advancement have changed with the generations and advancement of social media and artificial intelligence (AI). Those who rise are not simply those who work the hardest. They are those who are visible,” Gotian explains.

Talented, ambitious, and competent top performers can fall behind because they are not being seen.

Top performers tend to find it uncomfortable to promote themselves and may underestimate their competence. So, they end up underselling themselves. On the flip side, employees who are underskilled often overestimate their abilities because they are unaware of what they still need to learn.

“Not everyone is comfortable with the ‘humble brag’ and they don’t want to market themselves. They feel that if they do excellent work, others will notice. But at a time when job applications have doubled and creator activity has become mainstream, excellence without visibility equals invisibility.”

In a nutshell, visibility is not bragging. Rather, it is communicating with your employers in such a way that they see your work, achievements, and thinking process. There are times when your approach is more important than the results you (do not) get.

“In engineering and software development job interviews, it is not uncommon for the person running the interview to ask the applicant to build something. Recruiters consistently report that they care less about whether a prototype works and more about how the applicant approaches the challenge. They want to see curiosity, problem solving, and a healthy relationship with failure.”

So, what can you do? Simply put, you need to get better at articulating how awesome you already are.

For one, you have to make your skills discoverable. Be more specific about what you do and achieve in your in-office communication, resume, and on LinkedIn.

Meanwhile, even if you’re not a content creator, you might want to share your industry insights and lessons in posts, videos, newsletters, etc.

“You cannot help people if they do not know what you do. You will not be promoted if people cannot find you. Self-promotion is for attention. Visibility is to spark curiosity, share your thinking, and your unique value. If you want to stay ahead of the rapidly shifting job landscape, you will need more than ability. You will need to be seen,” Gotian writes.

Which of these corporate life memes resonated with you the strongest, and why?

What are the biggest work-related challenges that you’re personally dealing with? What steps are you taking to avoid becoming replaceable?

Who do you know who’s struggling to find a job in this bizarre job market? How are they staying motivated?

We want to hear from you! Share your perspectives, experiences, and words of wisdom in the comments.


PakarPBN

A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.

In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.

The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.

28 Powerful Portraits Exploring Unique Features, Identity, And Human Stories

British photographer Brock Elbank has spent much of his career creating portraits of people whose faces, bodies, and life experiences challenge the narrow ideas of appearance we are used to seeing in mainstream imagery. From freckles and vitiligo to scars, birthmarks, disabilities, and life-changing injuries, his work places individuality firmly at the center of the frame. Bored Panda has featured Elbank’s distinctive portraiture before, and his approach remains immediately recognizable. Subjects are often photographed against simple backgrounds, with little to distract from their expressions, skin, and features. Rather than smoothing away the details that make someone stand out, Elbank gives viewers an opportunity to really look at them, and, more importantly, at the person they belong to.

That interest in the person behind what we immediately see is also driving one of Elbank’s newest and most personal projects: homelessness. The idea began developing after the COVID-19 pandemic, when Elbank noticed the number of people experiencing homelessness in London. In late 2024, he began trying to better understand their everyday circumstances and challenges. He is now traveling around Britain and photographing people who have experienced many different forms of homelessness, not only sleeping on the street, but also staying on friends’ couches, living in cars, tents, or abandoned buildings, sleeping at workplaces, and finding shelter wherever they could. Elbank hopes eventually to create 101 portraits for the series and exhibit the completed work in Liverpool. His goal is both to challenge assumptions about who can become homeless and to share stories from people who have managed to rebuild their lives, offering a reminder that homelessness does not have one face, one cause, or one experience.

We also reached out to Elbank to learn more about what drives his work and how his new project fits into it. So scroll down to learn more about his past projects, read the full interview, explore a selection of his work over the years, and let us know which portraits stayed with you the most.

Hurstville Public School 150th Anniversary

Hey there, friends! I hope you all had an amazing week!

I’ve been all over the place with blogging lately. I haven’t really been posting regularly or following any kind of schedule or pattern. But I’m glad to be back today to link up with Erika and Andrea for Friday Favourites.

I joined the Share Our Lives link-up on Monday and chatted all about my favourite current music, so I didn’t do my weekend recap. I thought I’d do that today and share what we got up to last Saturday.

Last Saturday was the 150th anniversary of Hurstville Public School, and to celebrate, they had a big fair.

My husband went to Hurstville Public School, so we were excited to go along with our son and his girlfriend and see the place where so many of his childhood adventures took place. Over the years, we’ve heard plenty of stories about his school days, and some of them have become family favourites that we still tease him about.

I’ll just say that he was more mischievous back then than he is now. Our sons find this particularly hilarious because anyone who knows him today would probably describe him as a bit of a goody-two-shoes! But we know better. Haha!

First stop was the school hall, where they had all the school memorabilia on display.

When we spotted the naughty book with all the students’ names who had been given detention, you should have seen Steve’s face!

Luckily for him, the last entry was 1966 — way before his time. I’m guessing they must have had another system by the time he was at school.

There were quite a few food trucks, and the smells made us hungry, so we stopped for an early lunch.

Then wandered around all the stalls.

We checked out the grounds and saw one of the original buildings. I think there are quite a few original buildings, along with some newer additions, but they were all blocked off.

Seeing this building made me wonder what it must have been like 150 years ago. There must have been so much open land around back then, and it’s so different now with all the high-rise apartments in the area.

We live about a seven-minute walk from the school, and I’d never actually been inside the grounds, so I was surprised by how big it was.

Spotted a few vintage cars they had on display.

Saw the ponies.

We sat down for a while to watch the current students perform dances and play in the bands. Before we knew it, we’d been there for hours and decided it was time to head home.

On the way out, Steve bumped into a friend he didn’t even know had been in the same Year 6 class as him at Hurstville Public School. Oh my goodness, we were in stitches hearing all his stories!

I won’t go into detail, but they involved the principal, the cane, his mum at the principal’s office, and then having to face his dad when he got home. And it was all over footy cards!

I mean, it sure must have been traumatic for him at the time. But on this day, hearing him tell us the story, we were all laughing so hard. Poor guy!

Sounds like school was way stricter back then. Do you think so too?

Anyway, it was a fun way to spend last Saturday. Reminiscing and laughing about school days. Time goes way too fast, doesn’t it?

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Happy Friday 😊
