For a few minutes, there, I thought I had accidentally clicked

[MineralMan]

on The DU Lounge. But, then, I checked and saw that I was still in GD. I hate when that happens.

1. You must have clicked on one of those threads about (redacted) (redacteding) (redacted). NT

[MineralMan]

5. Nah, I didn't click on any of them. I did see them, though,

as I browsed through the thread list.

[USALiberal]

2. Please provide more details to your complaint! Nt

[MineralMan]

4. I don't think that's necessary, really.

[JHB]

3. Yes, my "Trash Thread" buttons are getting a workout today.

[IL Dem]

6. Me too.

The only reason I clicked on this one is because it was you.

[Kaleva]

7. I used the auto trash by keyword function

People can talk about it but as I'm not interested, it cleans up the 1st page nicely.

8. celebrity worship is everywhere these days nt

[BlackSkimmer]

9. Yes, I've noticed how Ukraine has suddenly disappeared from the forum.

I commented as much on another thread.

The only good thing is that the tfg threads, which were everywhere yesterday seem to have disappeared too.

[MineralMan]

10. We have remarkably short attention spans, it seems.

[BlackSkimmer]

14. Lol, we've both been here long enough to understand the allure shiny objects have to DU!

Squirrel!

[MineralMan]

15. Oh, it's not just DU.

[BlackSkimmer]

17. No doubt. Thank god I don't do Twitter, but I can imagine it's all over it.

I did see it on TMZ and several Newspapers, even European news lol.

I just wish it hadn’t overshadowed Liza Minnelli’s moment. Who knows if she’ll be back?

That’s a damn shame.

11. Sanctimonious Silliness

First, it's a current event.
Second, most here can think about more than one thing at a time.

[MineralMan]

16. Of course.

And intentional, too. My post was a joke. I didn't even have to reference what I was talking about.

Even you got it.

[BlackSkimmer]

18. Well played. nt

[ornotna]

12. Thankfully

The wizards of DU gave us the ability to clean up unsightly things with ease.

[MineralMan]

13. My eye quickly skips over the irrelevant.

[Hekate]

19. You and me both

I’m trashing every one of the Oscars threads today. I wish I’d done the same the other night with the reaction to Putin’s chumming the water regarding what’s cancel culture.

Mahina’s got a good thread in GD on invasive-species Mallard ducks in her yard and pool. Since Fish & Wildlife can’t muster up the energy, I told her they’d be good all crispy with Hoisin sauce.
