Aren't we all just looking for validation?

“Here's what I think.”

“Here's what I feel.”

“Here's what I wish.”

“Please tell me I’m right, that I feel the correct emotions, that the things I wish for are attainable.”

Social media gives us a semblance of validation, but it’s just that, it’s not reality.

.

I'm seeing posts from people trying to tell others what is or is not post worthy.

Handy Guide to Social Media.

DO use hashtags & filter in or out content you are or aren't interested in.

DO mute those who refuse to use hashtags or whose posts just don't interest you.

DO NOT dictate to others what they should or should not post based on what YOU are or are not interested in, as long as it doesn't violate the TOS. Because one of the rules here is DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE. We curate our own content.

What do you call the side dish served with turkey???
