An MSF convoy trying to evacuate our staff and their families was attacked in North Gaza today. One person was killed, another injured.
This is absolutely unacceptable and horrific. We condemn this in the strongest terms.
Ceasefire now.

There is just no getting around this bit from the latest Chotiner interview. Doctors Without Borders has never seen this before: the number of civilian casualties, the inescapability of death, the fact that everyone knows what is happening BUT IT DOESN'T STOP.

Anne Boyer has resigned as the poetry editor of the New York Times magazine: “Because our status quo is self-expression, sometimes all artists have left is to refuse. So I refuse.”

The cool thing about art is you can do it for your entire life and still routinely wake up having forgotten how to draw a single thing. The spice of life

If you can't even do something as little as using your words to say that genocide is wrong, your words mean nothing.
How can people sit back and watch as so many Palestinians are losing their lives, unnumerable family members and their home? There is no other word for it than evil

My books are bestsellers, I've won awards & I'm lucky enough to make royalties from my books but my sales have never been more impacted and if that's happening to me imagine new authors and those without the same privileges? We're about to lose so many talented creators. This is not sustainable

Feels like the perfect storm for marginalized authors careers to be destroyed right now - book bannings, no organized meeting place on social media, racist algorithms, our books literally being censored everywhere and it really seems like nobody cares

Just heard an agent point out that if libraries are forbidden to buy a kidlit book, that book stands to lose like 60% of its sales. Individuals buying copies can't make up for that. And then the industry shies away from such books bc numbers, and the books don't get made at all.
That deciding to buy banned books for your own personal shelves doesn't even come close to solving the harms done by book banning, and actually we'd rather you show up and speak out at your school board and library board meetings and also help elect better candidates - or run for office yourself.
What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?

I'll start: Amazon makes more money out of their Cloud services than out of their e-commerce platform.
