Qasim Rashid, Esq.Here's some New Years perspective to start your 2023.
Barbara Walters, Anne Frank, & Martin Luther King, Jr. were all born in 1929. Yet while we were just with Ms. Walters days ago, those two icons are portrayed as ancient history.
But the ideals they fought for weren't in some distant past—they're a contemporary reality we must continue to fight for today. We control that narrative. Let’s keep fighting for that justice in 2023 & beyond.
Remember, "The past is never dead. It's not even past.”

Now Musk and his PR team want you to think even the cursory measures the site took to curb disinformation were odious censorship on par with a dictatorship.

Laura Carter@abebab I once heard someone describe psychology as "the study of US undergrads" and now I can't see it as anything else.
Judith_IPThe anti-choice folks have found another way to enable abusive men to terrorize women, by creating an "estate" of an aborted fetus, and suing on behalf of that estate. I hope state laws will fix this, because it's a horror story. https://www.propublica.org/article/arizona-abortion-father-lawsuit-wrongful-death
L O L G O PTrump promised to release his taxes dozens of times. He must be so relieved it's finally happening!
