My New Year's wish as it is every year is that 2023 is better for all the WP members and the Autistic community in general.

Happy new year. Can't say I'm feeling particularly optimistic about 2023 though tbh. More mad weather, more price rises and covid making a return..

Best wishes to everyone for a peaceful '23.
Thanks for putting up with me all year.




This kinda says it all. ^


So this is the new year
And I don't feel any different
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance

So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
Or self-assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions

So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one

I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then I could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that could hold us back

Love,
Issy and Ross

I wish I could be happy for the new year but I have a bad feeling it's going to be terrible too...

Thanks for putting up with my bad attitude for another 365 days. Here's hoping we survive another trip around the sun. If it doesn't explode or whatever because who knows anymore?

Happy New Year to everyone!

Like many others, I don't feel optimistic about 2023 for the same reasons. Just hoping to get through it unscathed.

Yeah, I think so too. + increased differences in living standard within the western nations, with the increased desperation, shame and tensions that cause.
And the war in Ukraine will continue, with more suffering, and increased cost of living for the rest of Europe. IMF isn't optimistic either.
