77 women were murdered in Australia in 2025, almost all by men.

That’s a woman killed every 5 days.

Tens of thousands more women were injured, disabled or hospitalised by the same male violence.

As men we need to refuse to accept such an epidemic & use our power & privilege to help end this.

So Chris’s Minns is concerned about masquerading gyms? I’m assuming people in gyms who say hateful things to women can have their electricity turned off? Help me out with how this works Chris?

In light of Glinner's terminology, calling a woman an Adult Human Female, we should inquire about Glinner's understanding of adulthood.

Wish you were here, Royce. There's exciting collective planning and conversations triggered by this incident. SA writers, bookshops, publishers, journals, creative organisations, journalists etc will not allow SA literature sector to be trashed

The cost of a fully-fitted out water bomber fleet suited to Australia’s needs is around $25m. We could fund that for 30 years with just one AUKUS sub down payment. Would come in handy on days like these.

As a small act of resistance - and because I think it will be fabulous - I have purchased Randal Abdul-Fattah's book Discipline. It would be great if her voice was amplified with new readers through the pages of her book, given Writers Week has silenced her. #AdelaideWritersWeek

No Adelaide Writers Week for me. I can’t in any good conscience now appear at a festival seeking to mute a very necessary public conversation … Randa Abdel-Fattah is an important voice. Here’s something I published from her on, guess what, Palestinian marginalisation. meanjin.com.au/latest/the-g...
The Great Palestinian Silence
It seems everyone is tweeting about freedom of speech. So let me tell you a story about freedom of speech and the exceptional case of Palestine. In the days leading up to Israel’s proposed annexati…

people are withdrawing from Adelaide writers week faster than can be reported. In addition to the names listed here are Ren Wyld, Emma Shortis, and Fiona Katsaukas. Important detail: the only creative, Stephen Page, has left the Adelaide Festival board.

For clarity: We have two letters that have been sent, neither have been released publicly. We also have a festival board that appear to have sidelined their prominent and respected Jewish director, to appoint a committee of unknown third parties to consult on editorial decisions.

Plot thickens.

Apparently one of the victims had to call for emergency help after he had been shot by CBP.

A SHOOTING VICTIM HAD TO CALL FOR HELP…Because CBP didn’t?! What the hell is going on.

These writers have dropped out of the Adelaide Festival in support of Randa Abdel-Fattah.

Buy their books and support them if you can

My PTSD from Balck Saturday kicked when this morning, driving home from early morning shopping, there's tradies using angle grinders with sparks flying through the air, laninf on dry leaves blowin' in the wind at 11 Kerang Ave, Reservoir.

Yesterday I wrote to the Adelaide Festival Board to withdraw my participation from Adelaide Writers Week.

Their decision to intervene in Writers Week programming and cancel the participation of author Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah is completely unacceptable.
