I read it and shared it on Twitter.

Then I read it again. And got a jolt. I do miss the safe space that was terrorism academia on Twitter.

Life was easier.

I'm not sure where to go next.

It's all a massive distraction. Missing Dr John Horgan because he used to keep me on my toes and it was a constant learning from brilliance.

It was safe because good people paved the way.

And shared generously, with patience.

Now it's just a constant assault on psyche and soma.

Thank you.

I can't decide if it's the language, the attitude, or the content, but every post on WGW starts me grinning a few sentences in and keeps a dopey (tho I prefer "knowing") smile in place to the end. Sharp, engaging and only snarky when the facts demand. I love this column!
