Madison Avenue: such an amazing, tuneless blip on the Australian music scene. What’s Cheyne Coates up to these days? A “where are they now?” article from last year doesn’t have any answers, but maybe she’s getting singing lessons.

Yet more on Lionel Shriver:

Confronting Lionel Shriver

“When I come to your country,” Shriver’s chin is raised now. Her voice is strict, as if she’s speaking to small children. Though she’s shorter than I am, she somehow still manages to peer condescendingly down the bridge of her nose. “When I come to your country. I expect. To be treated. With hospitality.”

    I’m astonished that they invited Shriver as keynote speaker – even the most cursory survey of her UK journalism would make it clear that she’s a hateful, bullying, far-right-wing professional troll who loves to define “free speech” as “I want to hurt someone weaker just because I can”. She even writes for “Standpoint”, which is basically “We Must Exterminate The Subhuman Mahometan Filth And If You Disagree You Are A Nazi Who Wants To Kill All The Jews” Magazine.
