random links

since i can't get those photograph thingies to work properly, & since i don't want to take over julie's trademark of the "odds & ends drawer", i'll just call this a few links to really good stuff i've read today!

brian edwards tells us why he doesn't care for nigel latta.
I/S on chief justice sian elias' speech yesterday (this correction of colin espiner is pretty good too).
and a great guest post up at public address by ken aldous about the end of consumerism.

that's all!

ETA: i thought i'd just add a belated link to this guest post on shakesville [trigger warning] that went up on monday, quite long but very moving and pertinent, about issues regarding rape culture.

that's really all.

I quite enjoyed Nigel Latta's show so very quite interested in Brian Edwards' slagging off of it. He's got some pretty valid points to argue too. Thanks for highlighting it.

I enjoyed Nigel Latta's show as well, it will be interesting to watch the rest of the series.
