What's up Reef2Reef! I've been having some fun with some dead/dying threads lately. If you've ever seen some of the weird/silly/stupid state laws, I'm going to use those to help bring some life back to some of these threads! My friends @tharbin and @Fish Styx created a hashtag #threadmedic to help as a bat signal.

If you see a thread in need of some CPR or resuscitation, feel free to throw the hashtag out there!

Stupid State Laws FTW!

Don't forget @Rocks reef, I think he was the first one to actually use the hashtag.

Ok at the risk of showing my ignorance what does this hashtag actual do?

EDIT: I really am ignorant and have no idea what the hashtag does 🤪 . I know what tagging someone does but I have no idea what a hashtag is used for
EDIT: ok it appears to be something used in social media which would explain why I know nothing of it lol

I LOVE this.
Because there used to be a PINNED thread, stating to use the SEARCH feature to make sure duplicates were not happening...

Do you have a thread in need of some love? Thread not going where you want it to go or derailing badly? Just like obscure state law trivia? Summon #threadmedic. (better known as @tbrown) and he will help, or at least blow things in a different direction, hopefully not up.

Calls me (or anyone watching the Hashtag) to come and throw a silly but relatable state law (that probably shouldn't be a state law) to help bring some humor to the thread. It doesn't have to be a law, but it's a fun way to deescalate?

If you click on a hashtag, you can choose to "follow" that and get notifications if it's used.
