This is fascinating in the sense that the social media companies have managed to create a norm in which we think they can’t and shouldn’t be regulated. I wonder if people thought about cigarettes and alcohol this way once upon a time.
Australia will soon ban children from social media in a world-first measure, with tech giants forced to comply or face fines up to $32 million
A Global Drive to Curb Social Media for Kids Begins in Australia
Interviews with policymakers in other nations show they’re watching Australia’s age ban closely and planning moves of their own to protect young users.

On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. For 381 days people boycotted the buses. They walked, carpooled and organized every single day until segregation cracked. Nothing will change today without that same resolve. Freedom isn’t granted, it's taken one step at a time. #Resist

Every single elected leader in the country should be reiterating this same message. Hegseth is pathological. He's a danger to every single person on the planet. He must be fired immediately & put on trial. He will be convicted. If Trump pardons him, the next POTUS can still send him to The Hague.
Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

I’m very pleased that Jonathan Gullis has joined Reform – we need more conviction politicians with strongly held principles. In other news, here he is explaining why there is absolutely no chance he would ever defect to Reform.
