On Sally Morgan And The Issues With Testing Psychic Claimants (Are There Any?)
October 31st, 2011
Kylie Sturgess One of the unfortunate side-effects of Twitter is that you can get short, sharp, terse-sounding and inappropriate comments that are intended to be anything but. I’m certain Tim Minchin could talk about that quite easily, for example. This doesn’t mean that the occasional intentional passive-aggressive statement is completely absent, which (as I’m certain we all know) can [...]
