I held off on joining Facebook for the longest time, but eventually, I created an account out of necessity for work. Now, I find myself checking it throughout the day. However, there are certain things I wish I could filter out to make my scrolling experience a little more pleasant. (Don’t worry; there’s plenty of positivity ahead!)
Disturbing Animal Images
I genuinely admire my friends who passionately advocate for animal rights, whether it’s for pets, livestock, or wildlife. Your causes are so important! But when I’m trying to take a quick break, I don’t want to see graphic images of mistreated animals. I promise to read your post if you’ll just spare me the visuals.
Creepy Crawlies
Bugs terrify me. Please, no more close-up shots of insects! I don’t mind bees, though; they’re fascinating to watch from a safe distance behind my screen.
Spiders Galore
What’s with the sudden influx of spider content? I never clicked on that video of the giant spider being swept away, but somehow, I saw it anyway. Now I’m inundated with spider stories, like the one about the rain of spiders in Australia. Enough already!
Adam Sandler
I can’t help it; I’m just not a fan. When I see polls about Adam Sandler movies, I can’t contain my eye-roll.
Tragic Stories Involving Children
As a parent, I struggle to watch shows like SVU, so hearing real-life stories of child abuse is simply too much for me. I’d rather remain blissfully unaware.
Repetitive Posts
Remember that silly dress debate? I saw it pop up every few posts. Wouldn’t it be great if we could group similar stories together, like a search engine? I didn’t care about the dress the first time, and I cared even less the fifteenth.
The Kardashians
Honestly, I think there’s a filter for that now!
Posts That Make Me Feel Like a Failure
I’ve ranted about this before. Stop telling me I’m doing everything wrong; it’s just disheartening.
Mombods and Dadbods
Can we tone it down a little?
Kale Snacks
Let’s be real—kale isn’t that great, and one day, I hope everyone realizes it!
Now, onto the delightful stuff that always brightens my feed:
Adorable Animal Clips
Whether they’re wild, farm, or household pets, I can’t get enough of cute animal photos and videos!
Gorgeous, Tasty Food
Yes, I’m guilty of loving food photos. They never get old.
Heartwarming Stories
I’m all about uplifting tales—like police officers buying meals for those in need or good Samaritans lending a hand. The positive stories that emerged from tough times, like those in Baltimore, deserve to be shared.
Bumbling Criminals
Who doesn’t love a good laugh at a criminal who gets caught doing something ridiculous, like liking their own ‘Wanted’ post on Facebook?
Updates on Celebrities
James Franco’s antics always give me a chuckle.
