Watching an endless loop of ten second clips? Haha this younger generation. When I was your age we used to watch a variety show starring an ostrich puppet, a man with a cowboy hat and a reel to reel sound player. It was so racist Harry Connick Jr. made a formal protest. It was three hours long

Islamophobia has been the animus behind just about every domestic and foreign policy decision for the past 25 years. if you're a zoomer, you've literally known nothing else. boggles the mind we're still not allowed to point this out anywhere.

the reason ABC management over inflate the importance of The Australian is because they all used to work there

the lesson of the Lattouf result and response is this: the Zionist lobby, Mark Leibler, Zionists ANYWHERE are huge losers with little to no pull in the community, who are hated by the public at large. there is no need to bow to these shrill dorks. fuck 'em.

i think it's time Australian artists boycott the ABC. and i'm not just saying that because I have to appear at this ABC hosted book festival this weekend that I have 0 interest or desire to be at. they simply suck.

The entire board, who not only watched their chair and senior management take this course of action, but also signed off on who knows how many millions in legal fees, should quit in embarassment.

I need NOCK LOOSE to be a big success, like Boys Spits & Swallows Galaxy by my hero Trent Dalton Trumbo, cos I’ve got 4 other finished novels (all of which are kinda better than NOCK LOOSE) that Oz publishing will not touch otherwise

the eSafety Commissioner has announced it is illegal for men over the age of 35 to read and share Achewood comics. Surely, this is a step too far?

i don't know how anyone halfway intelligent can look at the state of Australian media, discourse, and our public "intellectuals" and commentators and not want to swallow both barrels of a shotgun. the standard has always been dirt low but right now it is beyond the worms. the stupidity is hellish!

i hate posts like "nobody learned anything from the Iraq war." Wrong! They learned they could get away with it with 0 consequences! None of them served a day's jail time, when all of them deserved to be sh*t. it was the war that taught the world there is no rules.

i genuinely feel sorry for contrapoints because only in these times could such a midwit be held up as some kind of public intellectual when that public demands ability and smarts that both they and you lack.

What an odd coincidence the The Guardian, The Age, the AFR and the ABC all had exactly the same case study of the same Melbourne lawyer trapped in Israel. Who happens to work for a firm whose senior partner runs a high profile Zionist lobby group.

as a critic, i know how grim it is. as an artist, it is apocalyptic. there is no one to review, profile, or give you a platform of any stripe anymore if you are an indie/alt artist, especially an outspoken (see: pro-Palestine) one. it is a wasteland.

I doubt the ABC is fulfilling even 25% of its charter these days: no doco, education, natural history, or proper archives units, few/no opportunities for original comedy shows, especially written or hosted by women, a disapparated arts coverage, no science on TV, no international service ...

i'm sad there's no digital media in aus left to review NOCK LOOSE, none left at the ABC. ive got reviews coming in Overland, Meanjin, Big Issue, KYD, Books+Publishing, ABR, and a couple of other places. would love to see The Guardian and TSP on that list, if anyone has pull there. it's a good book.
