... Because eventually, ain't NONE of us even gonna BE here in the future!

But let's hope we're able to clean up at least a little of the mess we'll be leaving them. Sadly, the conservative mantra is, "WHAT HAS POSTERITY EVER DONE FOR ME?" Overcoming that diseased mindset is going to be a Sisyphean battle..

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.
