I'm hoping the residence search turns over a few slimy rocks...

And the MSM reporting is abysmal - they're just repeating the lies the writer's lawyer is telling about how she was "18 through the whole book" - nope, consensual adult kink was not the problem here

Yes, he grooms her from toddler age. It was the ARC readers who raised the alarm.

The Guardian article is bullshit.. BookThreads remembers what actually happened, as do I. The book talks explicitly about him being sexually excited by her as a toddler, including a vivid description of him looking at her toddler genitals and being aroused by them.

a white and brindle dog with a long nose sits and smiles upward. She's wearing a pink harness and has soft brown eyes.

Adelaide Writers' Week cancelled after week of escalating controversy The remaining members of the Adelaide Festival board will step down and this year's Writers' Week event has been cancelled, after days of furore regarding the decision to cancel a scheduled appearance...

Both the outcome and the mealy-mouthed apology to this sorry affair are, alas, completely unsurprising.

Fuck this guy. And how many school visits has he done?

There might be some rather last-minute 2026 curriculum changes

We sipped a Bruny Island craft beer while enjoyed the wafting smells of curried delights from the nearby BBQs.

View from a park across to the sun setting into the ocean. There is a swingset with children silhouetted against the orange-pink sky, and Norfolk Island pine trees stand around.

Four crocheted Christmas stockings in a row on a wooden table: red, blue, yellow and green. The texture has rows of puff stitches, and they are decorated with jingle bells and Christmas buttons.

There's a bigger feast later, but we just scoffed an afternoon snack of cold ham with leftover potato salad (it's stinking hot here), and it was perfect

A disgusting anti - Semitic attack. We need an end to this hate and dehumanisation in our community. These acts only divide us at a time where we need to be coming together as one united community. Bigotry & threats of any kind towards any community has no place in Australia.

Josh Frydenburg climbing over a pile of bodies to launch his political comeback is genuinely one of the most repulsive things I've witnessed in Australian politics. Have some shame.

Your next step should have been reading the actual article.

"The allegations include [...] displaying "a pro-Nazi ideology with a specific hatred of the Jewish community, and to advocate for violence towards this community".

Oh, the facial recognition attemptor thingy? Yes I declined that

Sorry, thought you meant those systems that guess at your age based on what your interests are. Which seems quite confounding to me, since Spotify Wrapped thinks I'm 20
