[Naomi Klein @NaomiAKlein]

Of course Russell Brand's followers deny the allegations. He has groomed an audience to deny/disbelieve everything they see and hear, which is very different from healthy skepticism. This knee-jerk denialism is precisely why people with plenty of skeletons in the closet love conspiracy culture: they have a built-in defense against accountability. It's all a conspiracy, always. I have met Brand, been on his show (years ago). It took a hell of a lot of courage for these women to come forward. They have all my solidarity.

Legendary broadcaster Sir Michael Parkinson has died at the age of 88.

Of the many incredible guests he interviewed over the years, he said boxer Muhammad Ali was his favourite.

Here's a clip from one of those memorable interviews from our @BBCArchive

This is going to be a busy month for us so our personal submitting will likely be put on pause. Enjoy these calls for us?

🌍 We noticed quite a few accept international submissions, this made us happy.

[🇵🇸 Exposed Bone Publishing PREORDER VOL. III @bone_exposed]

Something that totally blows about starting a new litmag is that people don’t have a previous issue to read to see if they fit the vibe of a publication…I’m telling you now that if your piece even has a vibe, it’ll fit in at Exposed Bone. Subs open til August 7!

[prototype @prototypepubs]

Throughout August, we are accepting book-length fiction and poetry submissions from agented and unagented writers.

Many schools have banned students from using their smartphones, but is @UNESCO right in advocating a more measured approach to children accessing such devices? https://t.co/o86SFh3xRR

Closing time… except not yet 😉
There is still time to submit but you gotta be quick!
