“…superhero comics are nothing if not aspirational. They are full of heroes that inspire us to be better, to think more things are possible, to imagine a world where we can become something amazing. But this is what comics like this tell me about myself, as a lady: They tell me that I can be beautiful and powerful, but only if I wear as few clothes as possible. They tell me that I can have exciting adventures, as long as I have enormous breasts that I constantly contort to display to the people around me. They tell me I can be sexually adventurous and pursue my physical desires, as long as I do it in ways that feel inauthentic and contrived to appeal to men and kind of creep me out. When I look at these images, that is what I hear, and I don’t think I even realized how much until this week.”

Philosophers Stone was published in 1998, the year that the war ended in the Deathly Hallows - "I open at the close"
This is cool, but not really how publishing works. I doubt Rowling knew when her book was going to be released when she wrote it. She probably didn’t even know when she signed her book contract. I guess it’s possible that in final edits she asked to go in and make sure the date was 1998, but considering she was a previously unpublished author I doubt her editor would’ve considered that request a worthy use of time.
But maybe?
“A student who wishes to obtain a beard exception must visit a BYU Student Health Center doctor by appointment. The doctor will fax his recommendation. The student then needs to come to the Honor Code Office to fill out some paperwork and receive the letter allowing the growth of the beard, if approved. If a yearly beard exception is granted, a new Student ID will be issued after the beard has been fully grown, and must be renewed every year by repeating the process. If a request is granted for a temporary or more permanent beard exception the student will be notified by the Honor Code Office; at which time the student will come into the office to complete the necessary paperwork. After completion of this process the student may then grow a full beard according to the guidelines given.”
