Between the massive media layoffs, the looming bankruptcy of Vice, the studios forcing the writers into a strike & the rise of A.I. there's been a grotesque devaluation of imagination & creativity – during a time where it feels like people are more desperate for it than ever.

This is a terrific piece. Also The Velocities are absolutely incredible performers to see live whether you 'get' wrestling or not. Just ridiculously skilled athletes whose tandem flow is remarkable.

baby freelancers, please understand that there are some big name grifts out there, and it's better not to write for them. Like rates are bad across the board, but there's bad and there's a joke

The Fred Again hysteria of late has exposed that there's obviously an enthusiasm for dance music that's growing here in so-called Aus. But why does it seem that this enthusiasm only extends to a certain calibre of celebrity, with that same energy not being felt locally? 1/?

camp cope have always been at the forefront in australian music. beyond making music that penetrated the entire world, their bravery and fearless and unconditional allyship is something most other aus artists couldn't even begin to fathom. this one hurts.. thanks for it all!

There is no one who could write about Sophie as well as @jonnoxrevanche, or produce these perfect lines: “Of course I am less interested in proving these questions as time goes by. I’m interested in creating a working relationship with the asking.” overland.org.au/previous-issue

Support blogs, subscribe to magazines and newsletters if you can afford to do so, and let writers and editors know you appreciate their work. We really are all in this together and none of us - writers, PRs, musicians, labels - can afford to lose any more of those we have left.
