Just now on MSNBC: Rep. Khanna says Congress is frustrated with DOJ

96. This is a discussion board, not merely a news source. I know you've been feeling down

and that is likely coloring your response.

I greatly appreciate everything you bring to DU--you are one of my favorite posters--and I hope you feel better soon.

I sometimes find DU depressing and take short breaks. More often, I skip posts that I suspect will lead to discussions that don't have value for me. But those posts might have value for someone else. Sometimes people need to vent and others need to know that they are not alone in their worries.

I really do hope you feel better soon. I'm luckier than most--I don't live alone, we haven't had covid in our household, I have enough money to pay my bills--but I, too, am feeling worn down by the extended pandemic and wondering when so many ordinary pleasures will feel safe again.

Edited to add: I've read through more of the replies and want to thank you for the information you posted throughout the discussion.
