I’ve read some eye-rolling Heated Rivalry takes, but this one demonstrates such a bad faith interpretation, a misunderstanding of Romance as a genre, and a failure in media literacy and critical thinking skills that I don’t know what to do. 1/

I'm glad he's been dropped, but the senior staff involved should resign. They hid, enabled & normalised his behaviour, which targeted staff in poorly paid, very competitive entry level positions who had zero power & knew that any pushback would likely threaten their entire careers.

David Walliams' reputation was an open secret, junior staff were told to meet him in pairs & never visit his home, yet HarperCollins only dropped him when a Telegraph investigation came out. The problem is not just him. HarperCollins knowingly promoted & funded a guy sexually harassing junior staff.

Good demonstration of why today's windstorm along Colorado's Front Range is more dangerous than Wednesday's. Wed wind left vegetation critically dry. Any 🔥 that ignites will burn hotter and faster than if trees held more moisture.
You might be thinking, "CPSC, does a dry Christmas tree really burn that much faster than a well-watered tree?"
Friend, let's find out together by watching this PSA.

The US TikTok sale has been signed. The company will be controlled by a joint venture including Oracle, Silver Lake, Andreessen Horowitz, Abu Dhabi-based MGX. Adding a UAE company really makes it clear that this was never about national security concerns.
