Koz is gone

[kozar]

The world won, DU even won,
I'm gone not suicidal. No one listens here, anymore. I take my pills and I know, I'll be dead soon, And everyone posts links, and we,, just,, don't,,talk ,,anymore

I post and I get drowned out by auto bots, money won.
Viss mean zero, recs mean zero, vids mean zero, eventually du will mean , zero. We need to fight now

I'm dying, I'm just Koz I mean zero to this website

[biophile]

1. We are all dying, Koz. Buck up, man

Hip surgery is tough, hang in there buddy.

2. I listen,

But I don’t click on links where the poster doesn’t give his/her opinions.

My opinion now is that you need to keep posting, need to keep giving your opinions, including your latest wrong one.🤨

3. I'm an introvert

I never learned how to just chat.

I love to read DU.
I've loved the people, I love what everyone brings, each what they can.
I bring my recs.

I'm an old introvert, and hope you understand, Koz

4. DU Community has grown and its character has changed.

There are lots more posters and posts. Many are navel gazing, many are important for democracy. And it’s easy to miss posts by close chums.

One thing has never changed: Good people still care for one another.

Sorry to learn what you are going through, Kozar. Please know you are not alone in spirit.

5. This probably has more to do with your girlfriend than DU

My "girlfriend " immediately blocked me when I texted her I'm out. I had to remember my Lincoln mkz hybrid and drive away like I knew what I was doing.
The VA nurses ,Drs were great.
The peripherals , not so good, .

I'm out, the world seems strange after 4 months in a hospital bed

I just wanna be Koz,again

10. You will ALWAYS be Koz to us, my friend!

6. Many here do listen. We aren't all here at the same time, but there are caring people here

always. Hang in there, Koz. Difficult times do change even if only gradually.

8. Keep on keepin on

The only thing that ain't gonna change is shit's gonna keep changin.

7. Koz, we are here. Please stay.

[Trueblue Texan]

9. I don't always comment...

…but I am always interested in what you say. Please don’t be done. We have work to do together and many of us care, even if we’ve never met face to face. We are the only dependable allies other than those we’ve made in our own neighborhoods. Please know you are not alone. I for one, am still here listening and fighting for justice and democracy. Hugs to you, dear Koz.

11. Know that we're always here for you.

There's always someone here who will listen.

I've gone through tough times when I felt like a zero, & what always helped me was to reconnect with things that make me happy. Something simple like good music or a good book can help you feel better.

12. I thought I was a goner, for sure.

Somehow, here I still am.

[arkielib]

13. Please stay.

I’m also finding it harder to find posts I want to read. I skip posts with just a video. I always look for your posts. I don’t usually reply to posts because I’m not good at expressing myself and it is hard for me to “type” well on my phone.

There are many good people on DU that care about you. I understand if you just don’t like DU anymore and don’t want to post anymore. But you will be missed if you go.

14. Hang in there, Koz!

[TygrBright]

15. Hearing you , Koz. You mean much to me. And to this community. n/t

[SergeStorms]

16. EVERYONE matters!

In the state our country's in right now we must act as one. Together, we're greater than the sum of our parts, and every part must act accordingly.
I understand that you're down at the moment. It happens to almost everyone during our lifetimes. You're needed and wanted, and without you our sum is diminished. Get back on that horse and ride again. Our victory in November will lift everyone's spirits.

We. Need. You.

[ForgedCrank]

17. You and

I share roughly the same opinions on some things that are DU related.
Don't let the fixation that some have with garbage posting get to you. Yes, they are quite noisy, but I view it no differently than spam in my email inbox. Some days are tough times, and those are the days we have to just keep going through the motions until it gets better again, because it will.
When all the hate and anger are stripped away, we are all the same and we all hold the same value, and that includes Koz. No one here is worth any more or any less than you.
Keep your chin up man, the bad days will come and go, it's up to you to be stronger

18. I trash whiners. I ignore videos. I look for your posts, because you're really real.
