Running Chicken: Inside #Politics

kohenari:

Back in May 2011, I wrote a post that complained about the sad state of the Tumblr Politics tag; I wrote another in July 2011 because I thought there ought to be somewhere to feature more global political content. There’s been a whole lot more written about the tag over the past few…

You say nice things about azspot, which makes me wonder: will you also be promoting your own posts like he regularly did? (you could always tell because the posts before and after were obviously promoted by him - because he liked or reblogged them - and usually for some reason it would be right after silas216 reblogged his stuff. i’m not saying other people didn’t promote some of his stuff, just that he would promote himself pretty regularly)

alex holzbach would do this too… 

That’s one thing I can give ryking credit for (probably the only thing) - he never did promote his own stuff. And I know because his posts have never been featured on the tag……
