I’ve been through there many times, my niece used to live in Baltimore, my brother lives in Arlington, Virginia. Familiar with the area. That bridge collapse is gonna cause real problems, and feel really bad for the families and people who were hurt and killed.

Hopefully they find everyone safe?

But I don't want to watch it. We run these risks every day , and it's a wonder they're not happening weekly.

Our infrastructure is crumbling and we bicker about which bathrooms children are allowed to use, which names they can use, and which books they can read.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
