The Adelaide Writers’ Week saga was about lobby groups, false equivalence and pressure on cultural institutions to bend to political demands, Louise Adler writes. #PearlsAndIrritations #auspol #ArtsIndependence #WritersFestivals #CulturalPolitics #FreeSpeech

Board of Peace? @ledbydonkeys.org

This this this! Though I'd argue the Maduro regime is still the Maduro regime, too.

Oh.

Donald is now killing kids to distract from his raping them.

Well, this is reassuring. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

probably should have waited a bit at least before being an absolute moron

I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.

I know the temptation to joke about dying in World War III but try to remember that who almost always dies in wars of US imperialism are millions of Brown people

Fun fact: the US has been at continual war since 1945 and *not a single one of these wars*, from the Korean War to Vietnam to Iraq to Iraq again, was ever declared war by Congress. The last time the US Congress declared war was 1942. 83 years ago.

So, as predicted, misogyny and racism are seeing us hurtling headlong into WWIII. They’d rather kill us all than have the truth about Trump, Barak et al. revealed.

this is what they said it would be like under socialism

Second row from the front, smack bang in the middle. #thewhitlams #tasmaniansymphonyorchestra #livemusic

I’m off to Hobart tomorrow to see The Whitlams in concert which is a huge relief because I have dreamt about the concert generally and Tim Freedman specifically every night this week. Enough! 😝 youtu.be/sni1jwMauIw?...

Such a mystery why a woman being supervised by this guy might sour on academia.

Appalling comments by @albomp.bsky.social on Radio National this morning re. the children of so-called “ISIS Brides”. Apparently because the parents made poor choices, bad luck kids, not our problem. Imagine if every child abuse mandated reporter took that attitude: we’d lose our job and rightly so.

It has come to this: I no longer know how to post a photo to Instagram.

Notable that this is more plain-spoken than anything @albomp.bsky.social has said about Trump. Hasn’t even publicly refused the invitation to the Board of Grift, which is just embarrassing. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I mean, why is this a surprise? Fiscal crimes have always been treated with the greatest of gravity, while SA crimes against women and children never have been. Never. What a time to be alive? Every. Single. Epoch. In. Human. History was like this.

People in Lakemba too frightened to go out to dinner due to roaming gangs of Pauline Hansons

Just saw Angus Taylor’s shadow cabinet pics. Good to see he’s dooming the coalition to an even greater wipeout at the next election. #auspol

If you are wondering what words the all-male Congress found so "blasphemous" that they felt compelled to literally scrape them off the monument, they were: ''Woman, first denied a soul, then called mindless, now arisen, declared herself an entity to be reckoned.''

On this day in 1921, Congress reluctantly accepted a sculpture memorializing women’s 19th A victory. Congress relegated the memorial to the Capitol’s crypt & painted over the feminist inscription. The statue stayed entombed in the crypt for 76 years. The inscription is still not restored. #WeTheMen

A colleague reminded me this morning that Angus Taylor misled parliament in his very first speech in the building!

Where are the aussie aspiring/emerging writers at? I'd love to follow your journey from first line to launch party. Still in drafting stage of my wip and looking for inspo and connections... especially the whole writing around work/life/needy small people situation... 💕📚 #writingcommunity #writersky

Given how many egregious adaptations there have been of Wuthering Heights (I mean, it’s kind of famously unadaptable), this whole shrill carry-on about Fennell’s version smacks a whole lot of Uppity Woman Syndrome to me.

@kermodeandmayo.bsky.social Hello. Take Two for subscribers is not on Apple podcasts. Can you look into this please? Thank you.

Really, to hell the the Olympics.

There is something rotten in the state of NSW under Premier Minns and both these articles from the SMH are worth a read

Putting Mandelson to one side, so much of what Jonathan Pie says about UK Labour applies equally to @australianlabor.bsky.social. It's enough to make one weep if only you weren't so angry. #auspol #ukpoli

#EXCLUSIVE: The brother of an Australian aid worker who was killed in an Israeli drone strike in Gaza is urging the prime minister to press for more action on her case during the Israeli President Isaac Herzog's state visit. #auspol www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?” There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

BREAKING: @carolleonnig.bsky.social reports a federal grand jury in Washington, D.C. declined to indict Sens. Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin on charges of seditious conspiracy Tuesday, according to a person familiar with the proceedings.

Imagine being the Labor Premier of the largest state and economy in Australia, looking at what has been happening on the streets of American cities, and thinking, yeah, we need some of that here. Unfathomable, and unforgivable. @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social

Vermont US Representative Becca Balint being interviewed by Drop Site News shortly after reviewing more, unreleased Epstein files saying "They're all a bunch of sick fucks"

BADLY lip-synched at that!

Terrible news. I hate how we lose the voices for good while the bastards just keep hanging in there.

No party in Australian history has had the cruisey run One Nation is having right now. Not only can you say your racist stuff on Karl Stefanovic’s podcast, you can have it signal boosted with no analysis or pushback by The Guardian.

I mean, there are all kinds of problems with the Tasmanian state government, but every day I thank god I no longer live in a state where Minns is Premier. This is also the man who wants to imprison teachers.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Chris Minns says the Newcastle Writers Festival is "crazy" to invite author Randa Abdel-Fattah. "I think they are crazy to invite that author when you think about how divisive it is." OTOH, it's apparently perfectly sane to invite this person 'on the basis of healing wounds after the Bondi attack.'

I swear to god, they’re not going to be happy until they’ve hounded her out of the country, or to her death. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...
