@fionathehardy They're such devious little critters, aren't they?! What about a little catio setup?

[Angelasaurus Wrecks 🦖 @AngelasaurusOz]

@fionathehardy Did she climb over or just straight out leap? The thing with bamboo is that it can make it easier to climb. You'd need something slippery to stop her climbing. Plexiglass is good - slippery, no way for them to find purchase. But if she's leaping over you'll need to think harder.

@AdelaideBook @WyndhamSusan Only problem with this tweet - I've been on an extended Twitter 'break', not debate. Still hate not having an edit button...

[Angelasaurus Wrecks 🦖 @AngelasaurusOz]

@AdelaideBook Well, I've just walked into this debate having been on an extended Twitter debate and I can't think of two more eminently qualified people to comment upon it. Thanks for your contributions @AdelaideBook & @WyndhamSusan 👏

@1KarenWyld @cubbieberry Have just arrived back on the Twits for the first time in MANY months & I have to say what a pleasure it is to be greeted almost immediately by your good, intelligent tweets 👏❤️

some people need to learn how to remove the White Lens before reading. Not only books but poems, reviews, op eds, papers. Some people are so used to whiteness being the default, they lack the skills to read work by non white writers. You want "diversity" but do you deserve it?

@Informanizer @AdelaideBook @DwightGarner See, now I want to read this review...

[Paul Barry @TheRealPBarry]

Thanks

@alisoncroggon Agreed. If novelists have a duty of care then their reviews are compromised & they should not be working as critics. Good reviews & bad reviews have value IF they are CONSTRUCTIVE in their criticism & CONTRIBUTE to the critical discourse. Kindness cannot come into it.

My dad wrote a response to Scott Morrison's denial of slavery in Australia with a brief history of Aboriginal enslavement in NSW. Very proud daughter.

The testimonies about pay in this (UK-based) piece are so depressingly familiar.

But it’s been good to see so much solid reporting on pay transparency from @thebookseller lately

A super strange time to be sharing good news, but I won something pretty amazing

[Angelasaurus Wrecks 🦖 @AngelasaurusOz]

@erstkate I think we can agree with that sentiment, yes.
