... then in its popup window, mouse over the Write style for link(s) to show domain("democraticunderground.com") in the mouse-over text that appears, then left-click the link you are on. That should open a new tab to let you edit your own CSS for the site. Copy...

.stickies-container {
   display:none !important;
}

... or...

.stickies-container {
   overflow: hidden !important;
}

... into the code editing area (where the cursor should by default appear), then click on the Save button on the left side of the window. At the bottom of the window where it says Applies to, the dropdown should read URLs on the domain and the adjacent text box should have democraticunderground.com in it.

That first rule will hide the GrovelBot Stickies banner, the second should prevent its contents from obscuring other parts of the page (hopefully) while still allowing you to see the contents even when zooming text in or out. Just use one or the other - not both. (I'm not 100% sure the second one will work as I intend.)

You should be able see the results right away by selecting and viewing the DU tab that was open. If it looks okay, you can close the Stylus editing tab. If not, go back to the tab and double-check and/or change things and hit Save again. View the DU tab to see if it worked.
