This morning, while reading DU, I came to a startling realization:

[ret5hd]

This place is boring! I need to go out and get a life!

I no longer have to be on high-alert, refreshing the page time and again to see what fresh hell has just been unleashed, what existential threat is rapidly approaching, what fascistic traits my fellow citizens are currently displaying.

It is a cloudy day, cold but not overly so, and the ground is wet and muddy. A perfect day for a lone hike.

2. I'll take boring. And decreasing my 24/7 addiction to DU and all similar news sites

will be a positive for me.

3. Oh just hold on

We’ll find something to get stupid about.

11. How about we report the OP as being unsupportive to DU?

"This place is boring" is not an example of Democratic values.

Kidding! kiddingkiddingkidding

Oh! We could also argue about this post and how appropriate it is or isn't. There are lots of things to do.

12. I think we should argue about taco trucks

Hold it! If we gave the vaccine to taco trucks and had those on every corner....huh!??!?

13. Ok I gotta beef...

And not a beef taco. There is a graphic out there that shows taco trucks invading the U.S. and the don’t even breach Michigan’s border.

So we'll never get the vaccine.

14. Yeah we'll look at a weather map

There’s no weather in Canada and then POOF there’s weather in Michigan and Minnesota and I think it’s North Dakota. Huh? No one asked you for rain and snow there MICHIGAN.

16. My thought exactly!

17. After the last four years, I'll take boring!

No more sudden policy changes via Twitter, no more sleepless nights worrying that I'll wake up to a war just because someone insulted Velveeta Voldemort, no more worries that nothing is being done to really fight the pandemic, ect,ect, ect!

The wall has been stopped, we have entered the Paris Climate Agreement,put a stop on the Muslim travel ban and we are back in the World Health Organization! And that's just the tip of the iceberg!
