She Had Me at Cabernet

Because the elaborate use of well-chosen tags is obvious, lurkers who first learn must be admired and also pushed. Plus, her username on Steem is @Cabernet.

An excellent first intro post, as first introduction post in the #fknmayhem-tumbls curation efforts:

I like adventure and thrill. I never learned how to swim and the fact that I’m terrified of large bodies of water makes me stay away from activities like rafting. The only adventurous thing I’ve crossed off my bucket list would be paragliding. Last December when I visited my family and friends in Nepal for the first time since I had moved to the US, my cousins and I made this last-minute decision and just went for it.

I have similar experiences but then in the opposite direction, and my distance covered was shorter too (Europe, the utmost Southern East part when leaving, to South East Asia and I long wasn't in college anymore):

The culture shock got me good and I was mostly quiet and kept to myself the first couple of years. As I started college, I was more or less compelled to get out of my comfort zone. I started understanding the norms here and as my accent got better, I felt more confident speaking with people, asking questions, and listening. After my sophomore year of college, I became a lot more social and approachable. And the rest is history…

And @cabernet fights the right, the only fight which everybody should fight:

I want all women, especially young girls, to understand that looks shouldn’t be the only thing that will bring food to their plates or get others’ attention. Instead of seeking successful partners, I dream of a world where young girls strive for excellence themselves. This, in turn, will scare off most people that still dwell on primitive thinking that women are only to sit still and look pretty for them to show off. With social media taking over every aspect of our lives, I think this is one the main lessons we can teach young minds.

Now to explain all beauty social media queens this, even more so those operating in cultures where the search for the well earning alpha male still a cultural expectation is.

If by now you aren't tempted yet to check her intro post out, what's wrong with you I urge you to do so now.

Here I mostly tumbl (resteem with added commentary and attitude or snark, a form of advanced curation Steem doesn't offer), zapp, post to forums, and submit other miscellaneous mischief. The latter which may or may not include more personal content.

There may be days it can be noisy around here, follow at your own risk. Alternatively, follow my attempts at more valuable content on my main account, @FknMayhem.
