I loved that #DavidStratton showed the viewers how people could have a conversation and still disagree without:
-Silence
-Walking off in a huff
-Distancing
-Unfriending
-Bad mouthing the person (he talked about the idea & what happened in the film & style, not derogatory personal attacks)
Non-fiction, so relevant:
1. The Happiest Refugee by Anh Do
2. The Forest Wars by David Lindenmayer
3. Mean Streak by Rick Morton
Fiction, too many to choose from:
1. On the Beach by Neville Shute
2. The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
3 The Circle by Dave Eggers
Terrible story, unfortunately. Clear cut example of why definitions are so important:
“The man was known to police due to a history of #MentalHealth”
No HEALTHY person attacks ppl with sword!
Trained professional ppl, please speak correctly. Say #MentalIllness instead
Condolences to family
Personal development, social skills development & human relations lessons were on display yesterday at #MelbourneMuseum amidst poor behaviour from one school to another.
Stay strong #MtScopus community.
Two Australian fifty dollar notes showing David Unaipon (1872–1967) writer, speaker & inventor, noted for his contribution to literature, with one gold dollar coin
I tried to see Justine Clark in #Julia today.
#MTC “we are a cashless venue”
I had the cash, but the bank balance was low.
Reminds me of our first female Prime Minister forcing single mothers onto #newstart

Move well!
Literature is usually one of the solutions,
literature is not something to destroy
Again
Life is a bitter disappointment
I hope you are reunited

A leading experienced & knowledgeable Forest Scientist was stalked in-person and on Good Reads by Mark Poynter, a logger, and then by “Reader” who looked similar to Mark.

Which #Library, or expert #Librarian, is on this trial panel?
#auslibchat #PLV
An expert advising Australia’s $6.5 million teen social media ban tech trial has quit over concerns about transparency and some of its initial findings. Cam Wilson reports.
Worse.
Service level.
IRL HV eg

A: No

A: ah! On the comput [points] Park yrself over there & do the research yrself
Re-name to “book loan room”
No #Librarian at coal face means students have no-win. Reminds me of #Healesville Public Library Au
However Council Staff might have some wins by having “redeployed” or “promoted” librarians embedded on teams
#Librarians have unique skills to share
#auslibchat #PLV
Lets face it, Trish, all politicians & audiences need libraries and reading info in their lives anyway #Libraries #Library #LIS #Skybrarain #AusLibChat #PLV #PubLibs I’m sure they’ll work it out
Who counts?
CEO’s, technocrats, strongmen sold as optimisation?
Or
public libraries, community, self improvement?

A key factor is “who might be responsible for tackling it”. Notice how silence and disconnection are modelled and normalised. Community being groomed to ignore. This ‘de-escalation’ backfires by creating taboos. Little gets solved. Mis & Dis perpetuates.
I prefer sensible engagement by ALL
