The guy pushing Leucovorin for autism (Frye) works closely and repeatedly with the guy who pushed heavy metal chelation for autism (Rossignol), a practice that has actually killed children.

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

There are 12 days ‘til Pryde Month (heh heh heh) and I’m counting down with book quotes from WHAT IF…KITTY PRYDE STOLE THE PHOENIX FORCE? Let’s start with absolute legend America Chavez, for no particular reason 🐦‍🔥

This is How We Roll is OUT NOW!! I may not have my hardcover copies yet, but you can venture forth into the world and buy one for yourself! These twelve stories are all directly from the heart, and I’m so proud of all the hard work everyone put into this project. I can't wait for y'all to read it!

THIS IS HOW WE ROLL, a YA anthology of queer stories about TTRPG, edited by the unmatchable @rosieethor.bsky.social , hits shelves tomorrow. I hope it reaches the readers who need it, like I hope that even in times like these, queer kids will find their way to the tabletop to tell stories together.

Sickening. Every journalist in America should think deeply about the fact that most American politicians are willing to accept and indeed facilitate the murder of our colleagues.

The @dazzlingbookish.bsky.social special edition of HOMEGROWN MAGIC arrived at last, and ✨🍓oh my god🍓✨

Now I know I’m closed to queries… but if you’re querying a queer or BIPOC western romance (or horroromance?!) 👀

one of the single best deals in streaming. i've been paying for PBS Passport for years. it rules

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

Boston and Boston-ish friends! In “I can’t believe I get to do cool stuff like this” news, I’m joining an all-author live D&D one-shot on August 26th to celebrate the first birthday of Side Quest Books & Games, which has quickly become one of my favorite indies. Come and see us 🎉🏹

📖 2025 Releases with Nonbinary Characters

Friends, I’m hosting a lovely giveaway for Homegrown magic with the authors @beccapodos.bsky.social @jamiepacton.bsky.social with my bindery channel @binderybooks.bsky.social Head on over to insta to participate: www.instagram.com/p/DMPkpgbo88...

U.S. citizen and veteran. ICE shattered his windows, peppered sprayed him, yanked him from his car, arrested him, held him incommunicado for three days. Because he was working at a farm where undocumented people also work. www.mediamatters.org/msnbc/msnbcs...

Rümeysa Öztürk describes the library in the prison where she was held for 45 days for co-authoring an op-ed

It’s Non-Binary People’s Day, and I want to thank every reader who’s reached out to tell me how much Yael, the enby romantic lead of HOMEGROWN MAGIC, meant to them. They mean so much to me. Every author should get to write themselves in stories, as every reader deserves to see themselves in stories.

A question: because I spent an eight-hour car ride from Virginia to CT sorting through my queries, is it helpful for an agent to share very broad reasons why queries might get a request or reject, or does that level of transparency unnecessarily fuel writer angst? As an angsty writer, I’d get it 😅

someone needs to do something and you are someone what are you gonna do

It doesn't matter if they are ever coming for you. It was always ever already too much that they were coming for anyone.

Wooo, this book was phenomenal

“Secret police” are your words, not mine. Seems like you’ve been giving them a lot of thought. Unlike NYPD, your agents don’t identify themselves & wear masks that cover their faces. Now they ignore judges’ rulings, too. What law enforcement agents are supposed to uphold … is the rule of law.

just one of many small actions you can take that make a huge difference in your community, especially now in the face of SNAP cuts — and seriously, no one can stretch a dollar like a food bank

Save every human being. Fight for every single person that you can. AND it's all of us or none of us, truly. We must continue to fight back in all the ways that we can. AND literally: Save every single person that you can. There is no buffer time. It's now

Elon Musk casually, and illegally, dismantled USAID. According to a new study in the Lancet, that action will lead to *14 million* premature deaths between 2025 and 2030. Again: Elon Musk is directly responsible for 14 million coming deaths. 4.5 million will be children.

Hi! I’m here to support my former colleagues at Quirk Books, which includes a laid-off woman who is currently on maternity leave, an editor who resigned due to working conditions, and seven members of the recently recognized union. All of this happened within 8 months of my own resignation.

Really impossible to overstate how completely this guy has failed at every aspect of being an opposition leader over the past six months. Jeffries is a truly inspiring example for every soulless careerist who would rather be king of nothing than stand for anything decent in the world.

So today is also a good day to reminder everyone that it is not an "honor" to have your book banned. It doesn't increase sales. It doesn't land you on the elusive banned books B&N front table. What bans do: harm individuals, erase identity, destroy democracy. Book bans are attacks on freedom.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Lander: "It's just gross, racist bigotry. Meanwhile he's running an optimistic, upbeat campaign for a NY where everybody belongs, and I feel proud as the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in NYC to be supporting somebody who would be the first Muslim mayor—what could be more NYC than that?"

Hey folks, I’ll be closing tomorrow to spend the summer going through my hefty query inbox, so last call for your fantastic stories!!

I’ve been girding my loins to take a nice Pride Stack photo of my queer graphic novels shelf, wherein I rearrange them by color against a non-chaotic backdrop. But it’s 103 on the office porch today and July is fast approaching, so you get what you get 🌈🫠

i am simply asking the press to cover the government sending masked thugs to rip people from their crying children and shipping them to a foreign concentration camp with the same ferocity they cover a trans kid playing jv tennis in sheboygan

It’s wild times, but since we gotta talk about our own stories (or who else will?) I made this very helpful guide to my most recent and future books ✌🏼😘🌈

The Literary Agents of Change auction wraps up tomorrow and you can still bid on a query + first 10k words critique from me! www.32auctions.com/LAFC

Got a ConEd alert telling me to use less energy during the heat wave and this is all I can think about.

In Judaism, the worst curse you can visit upon somebody, deserved only by the greatest evildoers, is yimakh shemo—may his memory be erased—or yimakh shemam in the plural. Netanyahu and Trump, yimakh shemam

Welcome to the Neighborhood 🙌🏼
