(27,311 posts)I appreciate your honesty!

(34,371 posts)I try to be a uniter and not a divider. I try to offer solutions and not create problems. I know I'm not perfect and I believe that the ones that need love the most are often the most difficult to love. So, I try. I don't always succeed but I do try.
I also use Full Ignore. Liberally.
Thanks for sharing this, True.

However, lately there's been too many punches.

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.
