Things have changed, but not everything. We are getting ready for DU4. No idea when it'll launch.

I'm glad you're here!

I hope people treat you more kindly this time around, but if a few don't, just put them on Ignore so they don't ruin DU for you.

So glad you decided to come back, you've missed quite a bit, LOL. But you're a quick study and it shouldn't take you long to catch up! We've gotten a lot bigger in recent years since DU has been a safe haven during the tough TFG (the former guy) years. It's great to see you again!

It’s still a lifeline to compassion, good sense, and great and reliable liberal thinking!

We still have long-term DU members that I would deem toxic and they break DU's TOS by attacking other members. There are several here that will misconstrue other's OP's or responses, I don't know if it's done on purpose or not. The full ignore button can be your friend and unfortunately is necessary to utilize.



In general, we have friendly and polite who are fun to converse with. There is support here if you ever need that, very important to have in times of need. Welcome back and it's nice to meet you.

Every now and then (often coinciding with presidential primaries, surely a mere coincidence, the inmates try to take over the asylum (be thankful you missed 2016!), but it‘s only a temporary insanity. Really!

(Still crazy after all these years….)
