I see the Climate kicking our asses more than anything... as we humans scramble like ants in a rainstorm. It's too late to turn it back and Trump's ineptitude will only exacerbate an already fucked up planet.

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.

Tell me more...
