Breanna Stewart donating profits from her Puma+Harry Potter collab to the Trevor Project is like selling crowbars to the mob so they can break kneecaps and then giving the proceeds to a crutch manufacturer.

Law students starting this month... You don't need your passwords early. You don't need to check out Westlaw, Lexis etc ahead of time. I say this with love. Go to the beach, stare at a cloud, do nothing. Feel joy for the last time for maybe the rest of your life.

kate.b.cochrane Robin Stevens, who writes the incredible MURDER MOST UNLADYLIKE series (perfect for MG readers who love mystery), has written an adult mystery. ALMOST THE WHOLE TRUTH comes out next year and it is so good.

As we close a Pride Month that seems determined to kick queerfolk in the chest (again), I consider one of the queerest experiences of all: spite. Excise those motherfuckers from your life like the cancers they are. Live. Make art. Find others. Be joyful. Outlive those assholes, cheer when they die.

Here's the serious bit for anyone who'd rather skip the 4000 words of jokes
Because the truth is, tech doesn't have an image problem. It doesn't have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What's wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn't successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What's wrong is that he's trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that's designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn't that you haven't told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them. (
There are things in the world that are more important than money. The fact that you seem not to believe this, that you seem to think any motive beyond ruthless acquisitiveness is fake, dishonest, or childish, is the heart of your problem. Your attitude is not by any means unique to tech, but the

It's SOON BY YOU day!! Thank you so much to everyone who's already supported this book, and if you haven't read it yet, I hope you'll pick it up and enjoy! www.dahliaadler.com/soon-by-you
A paperback of Soon By You rests against a New York City skyline-at-sunset backdrop, with trope tags emerging from the left reading, from top to bottom, "Antagonists-to-Lovers," "(His) First Kiss," "Wedding Hijinks," "Mutual Pining," and "Fan-Yourself-Steamy." To the left are polaroids featuring a Shirley Temple and a chuppah, and to the right are polaroids of a guy in a three-piece suit and a girl with curly hair and a petulant expression, both white. Across the bottom is a quote: "A sexy, thoughtful, and thoroughly Jewish romance."-Kirkus. Across the top is an underlined "Out Now!"

Green square that says cover reveal along with the cover for my new book Pulling the Goalie. The cover has two women, one wiht a long brown braid and the other with shorter hair. The shorter woman has her goalie mask perched on top of her head and the taller woman with the braid is holding her mask by her side. Both are standing by a hockey goal with Teddy, the shorter woman, leaning on it looking very confident and charming. The goalies are wearing green jerseys and have white and green equipment to match.

I say this with love but I have seen a lot of hockey players in books going for long runs. Unless they're retired, it's not a thing they do. When I was a college hockey player, our conditioning coach gave us a stern talking to about long runs. Hockey players train for fast explosive efforts not 10ks

Trump warns ‘a whole civilization will die’ if Iran doesn’t make a deal
The president had issued a deadline of 8 p.m. Eastern time for Iran to open up the Strait of Hormuz, pledging destruction by midnight if leaders don’t comply.
