Hi, i made it out of ten-post probation...
So as the DU bot recommended, I am introducing myself in the Lounge.

I've been reading this site since 2001. I found it while taking a web design course at the Empire State Building back in that summer before the towers fell, and it has since become my go-to for news. I figured I'd finally sign up for it- a mere 23 year delay between inception and execution. Just not a joiner, I guess!

I needed to do this now, since it might become verboten if Trump manages to ooze his way back into power and enact his little idiot dictatorship. My wife and I also joined the League of Women Voters last week and already registered a bunch of kids to vote at our daughter's high school, with a couple more events coming up. A little engagement has made me feel less hopeless.

Anyway, that's a thumbnail sketch of why I'm here. Feels odd to finally be a member after watching this place from afar for so long, but I'm glad I joined!

Trump was President for four years. Why would he do differently wrt DU than he did then?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Hunt down each and every one of them, lock them all in a big room and make them watch faux news 24 for the duration of his dictatorship. :lmao: :lmao:

Yeah, while I don't have the means or care to factcheck the claim (s)he was learning to code ( :-) ) in the Empire State Building, I find non-credible the claim that (s)he has used DU as a go-to for news but never gave in to the itch/urge to post there. I don't think "political animals" of whatever POV have that degree of self-control.
