Something extremely unlikely has come to pass. I (@selfhelp4trolls) have been convinced to run a weekly contest once again. After the Dead Post Initiative which rewarded undervalued old posts that were past payout and the Cross Culture Question series, I thought I didn’t have it in me to manage any more initiatives. Truth be told my time is spread incredibly thin between my various creative work (novels, music, podcasts, blogging), teaching (my main source of income) and trying to balance the two with having a social life.
But…
@anomadsoul encouraged me to make a contest for Leo threads and I feel that Leo is probably Hive’s best shot at expanding the size of the Hive user base right now with their competent team and pragmatic approach. I love the idea of threads and want to promote it, so I’m going to try my best to keep up a weekly leo threads contest.
You may have seen some of these Leo threads weekend contests, we will follow the same format. One question or topic a week, post a thread on the weekend, the best posts and best engagement wins some Leo or Hive tokens.
It’s a very small time investment and you’ll find threads is a great way to get out of your bubble at Hive and meet people from other parts of the blockchain.
And Congrats to @wongi @luchyl @kingsleyy @jellyvine
@ibbtammy for winning last time!
Ok so let’s get into it.
How to thread:

Topic:
Tell us about a stereotype that people have about your country, city, or tribe.
The stereotype can be positive or negative, based in fact, totally inaccurate or somewhere in between.
Feel free to add your own personal opinion about this stereotype and tell us whether it’s true about you or not. Obviously everyone is unique so even if something is true for a majority or large percentage, it may or may not be true for us.
Feel free to drop as many threads as you want. You can post in a single message or you share more details in the comments of your thread.

I will also be engaging with and upvoting any threads with the #crossculture tag and I will ask a leo curator to do the same.
Let’s get the community really active on threads 😉
Join us on Discord!
And check out Untangled Knots Podcast, my discussions with various friends from around their world about their local cultures and unique personal lifestyle and perspective. I’ve already talked to friends from Indonesia, Holland, Nigeria, Hong Kong, America, Japan and Venezuela.
Please share us with your friends who might be interested in other cultures, the more people we reach the more people we can bring back to Hive.
