I'll get there like all of you, one glorious, 💙 Dem loving day at a time.

(I have a secret though)

I come here for the humanity, I always have.
After the 2024 election, I thought I'd withdraw from most of not all the news crap that was filling my head nonstop, well, I did.

DU has been my lifeline to the outside world most days, because life happens here, life is shared here, and humanity happens here.

Thank God!
