This is what makes X/Twitter so wonderful

Where else can you get such a great education in topics you never knew you were interested in? Just today, two accounts posted on entirely different subjects, and I now have better knowledge of my world. The first thread involves the study of Old English. I thought I knew a bit about it, but it …

Depending upon who wins, this country will either descend into Communism and chaos (perhaps even civil war), or embark again on the path to prosperity and “ Liberty and Justice for all”. https://twitter.com/wendyp4545/status/1832755920905884153?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Your vote …
