Hey you.

Person who is reading this.

When you make a personal appeal to your followers, it draws attention. Especially if you’re begging them to view and/or reblog something if they have the last shred of humanity that might make them think twice before stomping on a pile of kittens and old ladies in the gutter. The standard gets raised a little. 

Now spreading awareness can be an excellent thing, and I’ve got no problem with that.  But if you use the importance of your topic as an excuse to act stupid, you’ll actually be less effective.  So please try this simple thought experiment.

Imagine your message is being received in an email from someone your grandparents’ age with an AOL account.

Are the appeals over the top?  Do they suddenly make you think “My email isn’t the PSA department; I’m not going to bother my friends with this.” 

Are the facts accurate?  Do they check out on Snopes or reputable news sites?  (Posting inaccurate things because they sound important does not spread awareness about related things that are true.  It does what’s called “crying wolf.”)

On a related note, have you made sure you’re not reposting satire as fact?

Does your message, in general, suddenly sound like a chain email?

Might want to do something about that.  The things that were irritating about chain emails are just as bad in new social media.  And even if you’re ok with irritating your feed because this is just so important,these things make you lose credibility.  For everyone who clicks on what you want them to see because you browbeat them into it, two more skip by because you’re annoying them.  Every time you post something that’s been debunked on Snopes for years, people start looking at those PSAs not to learn from them but to debunk them. 

So make it clear that what you have to say is really important!  But write that based on the actual importance of the topic, not by using the same techniques as “Fwd:fwd:FWD:Fwd PLEASE OPEN READ AND RESEND ME WE CAN MAKE A DiFFErence PPL”

cocacolatechi: adriofthedead: journye: chilangabombshell: evolvinglogic: jawnski: diablosita: In recent weeks, the GOP attack on contraceptives and women’s rights has been returning to the legislative tables, and causing a stir among women’s rights activists and media outlets nationwide. Now it seems that many within the Republican party who strive to ban contraceptive use also see it as a necessity to prohibit the use of tampons, and seek to ban the sales of these and similar products as soon as possible. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) recently put together an all male panel for discussion at the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform hearing on the contraceptive coverage rule and excluded women from the conversation. It seems that he is set to establish a similar group of men to discuss the use of tampons within a woman’s vagina. It is unnatural for a woman to insert a foreign object into her body for the sake of stopping the menstrual flow. I, as well as several others seek to eliminate the sales of such objects. Women should let nature take care of itself the way that our Almighty Creator intended. To try to manipulate and control such an occurrence goes against God’s plan for women. Initial drafts of this new legislation have already been brought before Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), and several other GOP Congressmen. It is likely to come to a vote as early as next month. If passed, tampons will no longer be available to sell or purchase, and women will have to find an alternative means to alleviate menstrual excreta.  Several Democratic Congresspeople are already petitioning in dissent of this new piece of legislation, and will not give up without a fight to preserve a woman’s right to take care of her own body as she deems most effective. this literally almost made me throw up Let them have to deal with millions of uterus bearing people getting their menstrual flow everywhere. Ha ha, bet they would see the error of their ways then. What the actual fuck? Seriously my vagina! I will stick what I want up there! My body! I will swallow whatever pills I desire! What in the flying fuck? ITS MY PERIOD NOT YOURS. get bent. sure let me just bleed everywhere And then the army of angry menstruating females just.. destroyed everything. And bled all over their desks. The end. This is from the Freewood Post, a satirical news source like The Onion.  There are enough similarly absurd things that people really are saying.

so I’ve had this revelation

that if someone was an asshole in high school or before, and I’ve been putting up with their bullshit ever since

I actually never have to speak to them again, online or otherwise

I can block and unfriend them on facebook and it’s like they’re gone forever

it’s great

(if you’re reading this, it ain’t gonna be you. unless you feel like posting hate speech on your feed, or flaming me because you don’t understand my science and I won’t let you condescend to me.)
