Today, French lawmakers unanimously approved a bill exonerating women punished for abortion before it was legalized in 1975.
This "is an act of justice toward those thousands of lives shattered by unjust laws," said Aurore Bergé, minister-delegate for gender equality.

How do we talk about issues without feeding the ego because we react to every egregious post? I have a hunch that the temporary occupant of the oval office keeps track of the numbers as to who is talking about him. Clearly, we must stay informed, but can we avoid the attention trap?
