force that makes posting worth my while. Otherwise, I'm just like to hell with engaging. She agitates as MLK says we should do and I'm grateful, beyond words, for her relentless endurance.

Thanks, Brave. As Ms. Angelou said, You are the hope and dream of our ancestors.

Thanks must be given to you, too, for just plain old, as we used to say in the day, Recognize. Recognizing what is at the heart of being human. We do not have to tell you one thing, as I've fully disengaged in, about asserting and explaining our humanity. We don't have to tell you one thing about being human and all it encompasses.

So thank you for acknowledging and recognizing exactly what Bravenak does. There are lots of bravehearts here and you are the people I want to engage with.

Thank You!

There they are, in every single bravenak thread, posting 10, 12, 20 times about how horrible/terrible/awful she is in thread after thread after thread. Hollering that they won't even hide posts that are shit stirring flame bait because bravenak is still on the boards

(Yes, child. One of her PARTICULARLY fixated and special fans actually posted that they wouldn't hide a really nasty, really stupid post because 'if other people can post offensive stuff and still stay on DU then I don't see the point in hiding this.')

There they are. Yet again. There they are. Always. Screaming about everything. Screaming about nothing. And then there's everybody else. Wishing we could send these folks $5 so that they can BUY lives.
