Saw @JoshFrydenberg 's documentary last night entitled Never Again. An emotional, powerful & important documentary. He speaks to all sides of politics - Albanese, Dutton, Gillard, Howard who express deep concern as to where this tension is leading to. It debuts on Sky tonight.

Unlike the demonstration the other night, the people who disrupted the authors’ talk at @writingwa today by calling for destruction of Jews only served to expose who they are. Still, we met some thoughtful Palestinian authors and had warm and meaningful discussions.

The only justification for a tax payer funded music radio station (Hello JJJ) is that they should play SOLELY Australian content in order to support the industry. It's easy to find music from OS these days, why is the tax payer being slugged? #JJJAussieOnly

Deborah apologises for the no show last night at the Comm Games closing ceremony as she has been laid low. She wishes to thank Kate Ceberano for the gorgeous (last minute vocal!) on It’s Only the Beginning, it rocked.

A big thanks to @writingwa and @perthfest for a brilliant night, we felt supported & appreciated. We’d also like to thank the protesters who registered their protest with candles and poetry and showed we can disagree without vilification.

Twitter never changed anyone’s mind, it just let the totalitarian fascist mindset loose. If you need people to agree with you on extremely complex nuanced issues you may be just the sort of person you think you’re railing against #lookinthemirror

@BDS_Australia As I said to another “My reply is fuck you, as you seem to think that’s acceptable”. But it’s not acceptable, it’s not helpful and it leads nowhere. Justifying ‘fuck’ over ‘gas’ just after women had been brutally raped and murdered is not the way to go. It won’t help your cause.

A long long time ago I secretly sang the voice of the lead singer of The Takeaways (played by Tracey Mann) in ABC’s tv show from the 80’s, Sweet & Sour. Here’s a lovingly compiled podcast for the curious or for those who want a stroll down memory lane.
