Is it safe to do the following?
std::list<Something> someList;
...
someList.push_back(Something(8));
Something* something = &someList.back();
I would think it is safe but I’m not completely sure.
Thanks

Yes the object will be valid until you erase it from the
someList. See Iterator Invalidation Rules for information about when the objects can get destroyed for various container operations.
