Alright, Alright, Alright the first hours on steemit - ShitGetsRealSon! Like crazy real even though its Virtual

Why the Average Joe needs to be on this

Now its come to my attention that steemit is a badass mutha fucka (Props to my boy Sam L.) so much so that it has grabbed the attention of yours truly (waddup). Now the reason why this some what magical platform has me pacing in my apartment is because there is finally a place where good content can be recognized simply for its merits. It is these merits alone that will help the average peep, person or playa to succeed in a place free of limits. Yeh that’s right, LIMITLESS (Bradley Cooper Show yourself!)

How will these people succeed you ask?

Simple, They will be themselves.

Now as this is my first post I chose to spice my debut up by not only being myself but by standing on the shoulders of giants while doing so. I chose to use Mathew McConaughey's debut line to begin my post not because fellow steemers are more likely to flock towards it (Well I did a little, Soznotsoz) but because its just something I would say.

P.S if you know the film the debut line originated from we’re already friend s– Know this!!

My newly recognized Hurdle

Now when it comes to posting content online I am 100% definitely a network noob or Socialmedia mugglel (whatever you cool kids are calling it now). I do not remember the last time I posted something wholesome on social media. Now don’t get me wrong it’s not because I’m a social outcast or I’m against sharing my views but rather because I recognized that there is no value in doing so. This has been my hurdle lately.

To put it simply it likes when someone doesn't vote for an election but then has a bitch when the person that won fucks shit up. If only you said something right?! (looking at you USA … just playing, but seriously)

For too long I have played witness to people posting and commenting utter shit online in order to gain recognition. So much so that I argue with myself why someone would go to this length to talk about shit. I then realize that I myself have become victim to wasting my breath on such matters. By imputing my two cents on the stupid matter I have helped perpetuate the popularity by simply involving myself. This overtime has led me to distance myself in an attempt to not help further infest society with bullshit. But this has not helped the situation at all but has rather made me voiceless in a place where being fugazi is key.

It feels as though people are talking for the sake of talking

In places like Facey, Insta and youtube the phrase “all press is good press” comes to mind as most of today's social content gains popularity simply by user generated volume and not through the contents merits.

Sure I could learns the In’s and out’s of today’s Facebook and Instragram lingo so that I could become facebook famous or an InstaHoe (love that title btw, SO FETCH) but at the end of the day your helping to popularise something that should not be relevant and are stealing from more important matters.

This is where steemit becomes my refuge.

Finally! A platform that does well to reward people who are just Top Blokes (Aussie Slang, embrace it beautiful) No more will I have to filter through countless mainstream posts about up-to-date fads and the ugly nature of some of our ‘peoples’ online. Finally a place where the collective voice is not governed by mainstream media, hate and oppression but rather a love for knowledge and the ability to share with others free from incentivised trolling and outright slander from others.

Owww Totally Forgot to Mention…

You can make money from sharing your content…WHAT THE FUCK! This is great because one thing I notice and love is that fellow steemers value posts that are honest and genuine . Once people realize that honesty is valued most steemit will be able to take on a life of its own changing the way the world thinks one steemer at a time.

Thats me trying to get steam the oldfashion way, as you can see it is hard as FUCK!

Heres hoping steemit will make it easier for me. (I may have broke my Iron....Mums not happy bruh)

I leave you with my steemit moto - Dont Hate, Appreciate

Till Next time! This was fun! ONE LOVE!

👍nice post...

You've got a great sense of humor, I can tell! :D Welcome to THE community mate! I agree with what you wrote completely. Steemit is a platform that doesn't just glorify the ignorance and arrogance that blankets most of social media and the news these days. It puts the real topics up-front and personal, it sheds light on positive topics or expanding the mind through culture or business or travel or ideas. Not only that, the common man (who's not overly wealthy or revered too greatly in any massively competing market or business avenue) can have his opinions and ideas become valuable through others relating to him or appreciating his work/posts. May you find success here as many others have mate!

Also, if you wouldn't mind, I would love to hear what you think.
