You assessing resolutions for 2023? Are you moving in the world differently post-pandemic? For your girl, something about losing these millions of souls to COVID-19 almost mandates doing the latter. Still assessing what that means — but are there any new rules you following now?
This irritating Paul Whelan "equalization" issue: Is it THAT remarkable that a lone gay Black American woman's life was seen/treated/negotiated as equal to that of a lone straight white American man's life? I expect that in my coverage today too. SOON. XO #brittneygriner
