For my 40,000th post, thank you DU.

Thanks for separating the wheat from the chaff. DU is the best site on the internet for vetting information so one can determine what is bullshit and what is not.

Thanks for presenting new and different perspectives on issues where the corporate media presents a mind-numbingly well coordinated menu of propaganda.

Thanks for providing logical and convincing counter-arguments to the bullshit.

Thanks for making me aware of and sensitive to issues seldom reported elsewhere – education debt, rape culture, human trafficking, and a host of other matters.

Thanks for differing with me and forcing me to re-examine my beliefs.

Thanks for keeping the light shining on the real threats to our nation – dark money in politics, our fragile nuclear power plants, corporate ownership of our media, fracking, our crumbling infrastructure, etc, etc, etc.

Thanks for making me laugh out loud, shed tears and grin at pictures of squee.

Thanks for the links to amazing and beautiful music, photographs and videos.

Thanks for the original writing, art, photography and other content provided by our members.

Thanks for educating me about science, arts and literature, among other topics.

Thanks for helping pull the Democratic Party back to its core principles.

Thanks for helping to heal our nation and working to bring peace to our planet.

And most of all, thanks for giving me hope when my cynicism threatens to boil over.

Thanks DU.
