Just because people receive your email in their inbox, it certainly doesn't mean they are more apt to read it unless it has a very catchy subject line for the most part. It is difficult to get people to answer emails when you pose them a direct question in the message, never mind sending unsolicited political affiliation emails.
I don’t want any unsolicited em. If I don’t recognize the sender it goes to junk immediately. I especially loathe ALL political spam and texts.
I enjoy an occasional Cracker Barrel blueberry pancake and would really appreciate the impossible sausage. Why would anyone else care? Just don’t order it if it offends you. I am a vegetarian and don’t order meat. What’s the big deal?
Spam doesn't bother me. It's like leaflets in the post. One day AI will be so good, spam will "disappear". Like leaflets in post have. And much like going to get the post meant someone thought you were alive, soon your inbox will be empty, the postal carrier doesn't stop and you'll be questioning your own existence.
And Bill, you can write about politics without being political. Today is a case in point. You wrote about something that effects 50% of your readers. That it had its roots in politics doesn't mean squat.
I got a chuckle about “thoughts and prayers”. Really?? When have thoughts and prayers ever done anything for anyone. Since this wasn’t the first time, maybe suggesting for “rehab” or am intervention would be in order, but alas, I digress.
If you would be interested in writing about my recent scientific publication in the Journal of Marketing on dark salespeople (i.e. salespeople with high levels of psychopathy, narcissism, and Machiavellianism), how they find success and for how long, how psychopathic salespeople differ from narcissistic salespeople differ from Machiavellians, and find advice for managers who inevitably find them in their orgs on how to unmask these dark personalities, there’s a brief write up at psyc.org (https://phys.org/news/2022-08-effect-dark-traits-machiavellianism-narcissism.html). For the source article in pre-print, please email me at cinthia.satornino@unh.edu. (You said if you wanted people to write about you, make it easy for them to find you! 😝)
The one challenge I've seen with "contact us" forms is that apparently no one reads them once the message arrives ... so if I see a "contract us" form as the only option, I search for other ways to reach the person or just figure he or she doesn't want contact. In my experience, replies to submitted "contact us" forms can be counted on one hand.
I hate Spam. No, I do not want to get unsolicited messages in my inbox. Yes, I want these types of messages to go directly to my Spam folder without having to deal with them.
I get phone calls claiming to be from Amazon asking me to confirm purchases of $300-$1000. I can't block these calls because each one is from a different number from all over the U.S.. The introductory recording is not an American voice or American syntax, and the "agent" that I speak to is usually East Indian. They claim they are in Washington state. I just tell them they are frauds and hang up.

Thanks even more great examples of our steep descent into mediocrity. More on this later. My email box is hopelessly flooded.

This is why cats are great!
