To conclude the year, we asked our contributors and staff to make a prediction for 2023. You would think that after last year, we'd learned our lesson about making forecasts, but we couldn't stop ourselves. Feel free to keep these if you want to disgrace us later.Sir John A. will return to the news in 2023.History is always a good topic for making predictions.

Though there are some significant distinctions, this ability to remain hidden coincides with anonymity, the hiding of identity. People may know a great lot about the identity of others in text communication, but they still cannot see or hear these individuals, hence enhancing the disinhibition effect (Suler, 2004b). Particularly in groups addressing personal issues impacting physical appearance or speech, group members do not have to worry about how they seem or sound a particularly potent aspect of disinhibition in groups. Furthermore absent are the subtle and clear indicators of rejection and disinterest that would ordinarily prevent people: frowns, shaking heads, sighs, bored looks, or other such cues. In d...
