I will leave this here for you to ponder on the concept of “freedom of speech”.

The Free Press says Charlie Kirk was murdered practicing his freedom of free speech.

The Guardian reports that scholar Judith Butler will be investigated after being reported by her own university.

The Grand Duke of Tuscany, Ferdinand II, paid taxes on his property in Livorno in the mid-17th century. Would be nice if our monarchs followed suit. #EarlyModern
