The 403 error is because they are doing some work on the website. If you get it, just hit your back button and then try to click the link to the thread again or to post again. That's usually what works for me.

I've had that happen in the past and you're right - the inspiration is just different the second time. It's happened to me enough on Facebook that I now copy what I wrote before hitting "post" so that I can easily just paste it if there is a glitch.

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.
