In exciting news, my book ‘Queer Stories in Australian TV Drama: Production Culture, Policy, and Distribution’ will be published by Routledge in October 2026. It is part of the Advances in Television Studies series.

ABC fellas stop chumming with far-right domestic abusers challenge

I said love, I said pet. I said pet, I said love. I said no, I’m not taking up your offer to apply for the role of Commissioner of the NACC, as I have a conflict of interest. (Draws on cigarette) My lack of interest in doing any work conflicts with your requirement that I appear to do any

Nothing in the Budget last night for the ARC. Despite review after review recommending ARC funding be increased, nothing. Year on year, the same thing, no matter who's in Government.

"try and catch public transport" says the guy who has never tried getting anywhere on time with public transport in Adelaide...

Setting: chaotic traffic jam in the aisles at Coles Old fella 1: it's easier to pass through the Strait of Hormuz than these aisles! Old fella 2: you don't get shot here though. Old fella 1: not yet anyway.

My wife says this photo is missing Benoit Blanc

The editing while Kate Seigel talks should be taught in film schools. The way it illuminates what she’s saying, stays with the tone she’s conveying, and drives home the entire reason for the doc to exist, is something every doc can only hope to have to opportunity to present the audience with.

Whoever gave the green light to cutting off all those speeches needs to be fired into the sun #oscars

CONAN: “For the first time since 2012 no British people are nominated for Best actor or best Actress… a British spokesperson commented, ‘Yeah, well, at least we arrest our pedophiles.’" #Oscars

So the Oscar for Best Sound definitely isn't going to the #Oscars after that debacle

New Haute and Freddy absolutely slaps. It's perfect for my Kath Day-Knight inspired dad dancing.

I can see why Australia's choice for Eurovision is Delta Goodrem as it would be career suicide for an emerging artist to participate this year given the boycott.

youre making a mockery of the fifa peace prize

One of the worst things about AI, for me, is that it takes away from people the sheer joy of writing. Schools don’t often make this point, but writing should be fun. Putting words together, finding ways to express yourself, the pure pleasure of a well-crafted sentence. 1/5

you can really blow some minds with “actually there was an entire library and research institute for queer / trans history, science and medicine founded by a Jewish sexologist but the Nazis destroyed it in the hopes of exactly this outcome, ie future generations not believing trans people are real”

This is how you live a life

I just keep thinking of all those in Australia who've had friends and family massacred by Israel, including volunteers like Zomi Frankcom - to see Herzog, the political symbol of Israel's racist violence, genocidal hatred and apartheid - paraded and feted by Australia's political class.

sorry i missed the virtual meeting on discord, liz. i got hit with the id verification that happens when the app detects youre young

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

One of the highlights of the Australian Open has been Jelena Dokic's commentary. She is such a smart and insightful analyst.

Excellent idea. I am not enjoying Heatwave Santos. 44° here today (111°F).

Adelaide had a record low of 34.1 last night. I popped outside at 4am when our daughter got up for a feed and it felt like an oven. Just so gross.

This won the Netherlands top cartoon award

Maybe I'm an alarmist, but I think the Trump Administration having masked goons murder someone doing no harm and then slandering him on TV is a bit more serious—and legally precarious—than being simply "straight cringe." (Rachel Bade has written for The Washington Post, ABC News, and Politico.)

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1776

There's one foolproof way to gauge whether someone is a millennial or a zoomer: Ask them how they learned the difference between Iceland and Greenland. If the answer is from D2: The Mighty Ducks, you're talking to a millennial. Otherwise, zoomer.

Friendly reminder that Labor have once again betrayed the LGBTQ community. They have never been our friend.

oh this is so so good

Dropkick Murphys are releasing a new song called "Citizen I.C.E." The lyrics go: "Too scared to join the military/ Too dumb to be a cop." consequence.net/2026/01/drop...

What is the end game here? No publicly funded cultural events that aren’t approved by Israel? No arts boards that aren’t pro-Israel? The sections of our political class and media who are active in this attempted gutting of our cultural landscape need to ask wtf they are doing here.

Sky News keep posting their Ls lol

Louise Adler has resigned, huge loss to South Australian arts and culture. This is certainly a lesson in not caving to racist lobby groups. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

⁉️The ARC has delayed outcomes of ALL grants 1–4 months & increased scheduled outcome windows from 2 weeks to 3 months! This reverses 4 years of progress in providing greater certainty & ability to plan for researchers, their families & unis. Their excuse? Security checks under new ARC legislation👇

Has the voice over guy for the Golden Globes dropped acid? What the hell is happening?

The Adelaide Writers Festival now wrecked by the Adelaide Festival Board, half of which was appointed late last year: a marketing executive; a former politician; a local councillor/real estate agent; an airport manager; a lawyer; a media consultant; and a banker. Another public arts takeover fiasco.

Grass roots. My @smh cartoon.

It’s going to be an interesting few weeks when the royal commission examines, as I suspect it will, the defraying of social cohesion caused by the organised censorship of writers, artists and employees across the country for daring to speak against an unfolding genocide

Top article from Richard Watts for Arts Hub on the racist decision from the Adelaide Festival for the Adelaide Writers' Week: www.artshub.com.au/news/news/ad...

Randa Abdel-Fattah uninvited from Adelaide Writers’ Week, because of Bondi, even though they "do not suggest in any way that Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah’s or her writings have any connection with the tragedy at Bondi." She just can't come anymore. Because Bondi. www.adelaidefestival.com.au/news/2025/ad...

I stand with Randa and everyone standing against hate, genocide, oppression and terror. In all its forms.

Watch this list evaporate, name after name.

Absolutely shameful. The Adelaide Festival should be boycotted for caving to Zionist lobby groups.

On leave til Monday but again asking why politicians, government agencies and journalists are continuing to post on a site that has weaponised nudifying people, including children. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
