After this little nugget in estimates about Mean Streak yesterday someone slid into my DMs to say the book has been checked out of the Dept of the Prime Minister and Cabinet library since last year and the wait list got so long they bought more copies.

The Bankstown Nurses Affair shows that the MSM lacks an enquiring mind. Content Creator ignored. Why not scrutinize CC with a fine tooth comb? Notice the full recordings never put on the spotlight. Falsifying evidence is a Federal crime. Why hasn't MSM investigated CC? Is that divisive?

A very good article. That quote below really sums up how so many in Australia feel. And the ones who don’t feel it, … Well. they watch Sky News. #auspol #FuckMurdoch

China has just exposed a fundamental flaw in the #AUKUS sub project. As their rapidly expanding navy operates off our coast and in our sea lanes now, AUKUS is sapping funds from capabilities needed today - to pay for a sub maybe arriving in 2035🤦‍♂️. #auspol

"Some controversy was generated" about Sasabi's prior works, says Adrian Collette. Rather than using the opaque passive voice, Mr Collette should explain how the controversy was generated & how it manifested itself. Was it more than a few jabs in the Murdoch press & Chandler's specious question?

It would be great if Creative Australia could provide a list of subjects and people that artists must avoid if they wish to keep their govt contracts over the next 25 years #estimates

Creative Australia's position seems to be that if an artist could be perceived to be too controversial and thus "trigger divisive narratives", its Board should consider the "social license consequences" of providing that artist with significant national commissions....and not do so. #senateestimates

The Creative Australia review of this whole debacle seems to be solely designed to answer the question: "How can we ensure we don't make an artistic appointment that could be weaponised against us by Bad Actors?"

Creative Australia's position is indefensible.

Memo to News Corp and the Liberal Party. The only person who still thinks Linda Reynolds is a victim in the Brittany Higgins rape "saga" is Linda Reynolds. The victim is Brittany Higgins - she is the one who deserves an apology from the News Corp-Liberals.
