I have been having trouble coming here in the last few weeks. The constant battle between fans of each candidate make me sad and nervous. I worry that the Democrats will allow another fumble at the goal line and we will be plunged down the rabbit hole, to mix metaphors. No matter who you are cheering for, working for, believe in, the consequences of a right wing nut job as President keeps me up at night.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It's also so we can find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. Members come here to check in. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a PM to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!So I have been just scanning the stories listed and trying to stay out of most of them. It doesn’t take long to look through so I am spending less time online. Are you having some of these problems too? Check in below, have a good day.
