I think I'm out of here

Suddenly I can't post in the lounge due to a snarky response to an offensive post. Those who know me know I do this every so rarely.

Since DU moved to the "automated jury", it seems to have lost some personality. I know this discussion is against DU rules, so if it gets pulled, don't be surprised. I used to be a DU moderator (when that meant something) but now it's unenjoyable to post unless everything's politically correct. So I think I'll sign off and pull my donations.

I love everyone here on C&B, and also on the Cancer channel where I participate. It seems that if I dare venture outside of that region, everyone's too uptight.

I have late stage cancer. I have too little things to burn my time on. I'm sorry.

Very frustrating weekend, that was. DU has been a second home. I can't give that up easily.
