Summer 2027 will be the summer of bitter old men, washed up has-beens, of fútbol, ennui, questioning free will, and facing long-dead fascist fathers. It will be the summer of BRUTO.

"Actually 6 year olds should have iPhones" is an insane hill to die on. This is why you can't outsource your moral compass people
Actually, studies show the earlier a kid gets a smartphone the better the mental health. The idea that smartphones are ruining kids mental health is pseudoscience pushed by reactionaries who are using a moral panic to push dangerous censorship and surveillance laws

Very excited to publish Eoin's brilliantly wry, moving novel. It has a talking cat named Gaito Gazdanov and starts with the realization that Tuvalu will be underwater in our lifetime...

Back in December, I stumbled upon a stunning detail in a prison technology company's bankruptcy case: The company's CEO, Jonathan Logan, owned a $10 million yacht called "Convict." And he was offering corrections officials sunset cruises on it. That was just the beginning.

So excited to publish this whimsical, melancholy novel that confirms what I've long suspected: through trials economic and existential alike, our household objects continue to observe and love us!

Today in @thenation we have a piece by Lujayn, a 14-year-old girl in Gaza, that has floored me every time I've read it. It's about what happened when an Israeli bulldozer came to destroy the house she was staying in, and you must, must, must read it. thenation.com/article/world/…

My heart used to break for the mice scurrying in the subway tracks, that they'd never know the sweet smell of air and soil and the taste of nuts and seeds. But then I see that beings much larger are content to eat garbage, and I feel ok, if a little sad for everyone
