Post Your Thoughts Without Pictures

Posting more regularly now, I find that one of my posting blocks has always been finding / making the pictures that are supposed to "enhance" my text.

It's such a waste of time.

I can't remember where I picked up this erroneous idea that, without graphics, nobody is going to read your post.

To demonstrate how pervasive this is, all you have is look at your own feed and count the number of boring stock photos being used that have little to nothing to do with the post.

Sure, quite a number of people are first attracted to interesting graphics, but if you're spending more time on finding or making an "attractive thumbnail" than what you're actually sharing / producing, you need to re-think your priorities.

And IF nobody reads your post because you didn't put up a graphic, it kind of shows what kind of audience you've been cultivating and contributing to.

Seriously, cut the graphics, unless you're actually talking about them or using them to make your point.

Words alone are fine.

P/S
If you're one of the rare few who also posts without pictures, I read your posts when I come across them.
