WOW. I hit the milestone. It took me almost 20 years to get to this point.
From mistakes I made I have lost a few DU friends. Saying I'm sorry probably won't reestablish friendship with those many DUers. I am sorry for the mistakes I've made. There have been too many to list.
High points for me on the DU include sharing my diagnosis for dementia several years ago. I'm still going strong. Having the Labor Group named after me. Raising $2.4 million for Biden/Harris 4 years ago. Lots of nature pictures I used to post. Being a long time host. Meeting Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff and talking about the DU. You get the idea. Feel free to add to this list.
I doubt I'll have another 20 years on the DU. That doesn't mean I won't try.
In solidarity,
OS

(4,525 posts)You have a most generous spirit.
What you did for me in a red, red Cowboys for Trump red county helped me inspire others to run when wed had no Democrats run for any local office in 20+ years.
What youve done for DU will have ripples of courage, faith and more for people we may never know.
Thank you beyond gratitude

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.
