Completed my first (engrossed, admiring) read of @rachaelking70’s new book “The Grimmelings” (publishes 20 Feb) this weekend and now even more excited to talk to her next month at @AotearoaNZFest

Read ‘Fortunately the Milk’ by @neilhimself to miss 6 last night and tonight. She declared it the silliest book she’d ever heard and immediately asked me to read it again tomorrow. She also loved spotting pirates from ’Pirate Stew’.

@RevDaniel You missed the words 'Sydney Anglicans'...they are just a very different breed of Anglican, like the black sheep of the family *insert eye roll*

@rebeccalush_ I was quite disgusted by it. Felt it was really poor in the context of everything we’d heard beforehand. Radical vulnerability dismissed by an anecdote that wasn’t needed at that point.

I feel like I’m tweeting into the void here - anyone else feel the story of the German tank was a total strawman argument in this case? #amaga2023

Did Russel Briggs say that the global repatriation movement was endangering global museums? I really hope I misheard and / or he provides context for that. #amaga2023

Lauretta Morton OAM listing the requirements of a ‘grown up gallery’… cafe, loading dock, education space, dual entry and exits, digital outdoor screens. #amaga2023

‘It’s not loosing items or collections from your museum, because when you walk out the front door you’ll have relationships with that community’. #amaga2023

Ummm what!? ‘We’ve taken the objects off display as we didn’t want to keep having the conversation and explain ourselves. And now they’ll be off display forever.’ Wow! After all the discussion we’ve had this week this is how we’re opening up the final session! 🤯 #amaga2023

@RobThomson2528 The objects were described as ‘tourist tat’ but similar to some globally contentious objects. Surely improved labelling and education for staff on how to talk about these items would be a far better response. #amaga2023

‘The amount of brotherhood and goodwill we share with that museum as a result of repatriation is extraordinary.’ Obvious outcomes for doing the right thing and being human focussed not organisation tradition focussed. #amaga2023

Okay - seems like he’s referring to the lack of global frameworks and processes to support consistency and best practise. #amaga2023

‘It’s a great initiative and it serves a cause, but it doesn’t serve community.’ Reminder that having the right stakeholders part of the project from the point of origin is critical. #amaga2023

Aiming for perfection would have just reintroduced the old way of doing things. There was a need to disrupt so went for the minimum viable product. #amaga2023

The cultural shift of a digital transformation - moving from small number of gatekeepers and controllers to open access for all staff. #amaga2023
