Enjoyed DU for quite awhile now, but decided to join so I could comment on the primaries and current events.

(9,651 posts)This is the place that will help you keep your sanity during all of the insanity everywhere else in the world.
If you need to laugh, this is the place to find something to laugh at. If you need to vent, vent away. Chances are, there will be a lot of people who understand what you are going through.
If you know a good joke, or a bad one, please share.
Basically, this is the best place on the internet.
So welcome home!

Ive often thought of this place as a kind of online think tank. The expertise and analysis here, the thinking and musing and debating that goes on. Perspectives from EVERY walk of life, every age, race, profession, every part of the U.S. and across the globe.
Its gotten me through some personal rough spots, 9/11, bush/cheney, the Iraq War, and all the ups n downs peppering the way, plus offering an island of truth and sanity while were otherwise mired in trumpworld. And Ive met and made friends here. I dare say we all have.
And theres lots of empathy to be found. No one mourns alone here. And as our own Skittles puts it - somebodys always here.
Glad you are, too!

Let me say you can trust us. This is the Lounge. Everything is on the up and up and absolutely no shenanigans go on here (except for that PuffedMica poster, I wouldn't trust them with a burnt out match).
