We all have that one question we want to make a poll on, but we are scared of what the public will think when we make it. That’s where this blog comes in! Send your polls in and they will be posted anonymously here.
Polls being from many people, we may get some NSFT or more adult polls, so bear that in mind! I will add trigger warnings wherever I see it needed, but feel free to let me know if you think another is needed.
Please note that there will be polls that I don’t always agree with, as I am not that person.

Can we ask Am I The Asshole type polls?

Although I love AITA polls as much as the next person, since this isn't a AITA dedicated poll blog I probably wouldn't post many of them.

I don't know them personally, but I recommend going to @aita-polls ! I would love to help them get more followers if I can and they seem quite nice. (:

If someone is gonna make a poll about something that isnt widely known they should put an image

Im only saying this because theres been like 3 polls where the person will say something like its known worldwide

This is just my opinion but i dont want to go and google something just because i want to answer a poll

Same anon sent these ⬆️

I agree. It definitely would be better if the person could include a picture with the poll because many many times I have had to do the research and find definitions/links/photos before queueing the polls.

Just saying in case other anon (or anyone else) is not aware: you can get a notification with pole results. You can check/uncheck the option in your notification settings.

Thanks for letting us know!

Anonymous asked:

Have you ever considered reblogging polls once they are finished so followers can see the results? I know some people might not like this though…

In theory that would be a nice idea, but since five polls are posted every day, not only would the new polls be posted, additional closed polls would be reblogged on top of that.

Not only would that send out a lot of notifications to those with notifications turned on, I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the reblogging as I’m not on every day and am often bed bound.

I’ve had people ask me to tag them because they want to see the results, so there’s always that option.

Anonymous asked:

Is it ok to show screenshots of other conversations to friends?

(Nothing to doxx or show personal information, and it doesn't to hurt or spread rumors. Just funny things that other people said.)

As long as you block out any personal info, that is totally fine!

I was hoping and waiting to see if it would get posted, but you know what, ok, not posting That One Poll about Gollum and the Ring was fair.

To my recollection, I have not received a poll about those, unless it somehow slipped through my sight. Feel free to submit it again!

Anonymous asked:

hi anon polls! Just a clarification question: when you say no porn questions, do you include kink related questions in that? Don’t wanna ask an uncomfortable question if ur not comfortable putting it out

Most kink related polls that have been sent in have been just fine!

Anonymous asked:

What is the point of having a poll blog if you ban so many topics? You don’t let people ask questions about politics, you don’t let them mock the Westboro Baptist Church — at this point, what topics do you approve of?

I am sorry you don't like the way I run my poll blog, but there are many others to choose from on Tumblr that accept all topics.

Anon who sent the lie/lay poll: I wanted to clarify because everyone is instantly jumping to assuming bad faith asking?? I’ve always considered myself a writer and a “word person,” but I had to learn from Grammarly at age 26 about lie/lay. My entire family uses it incorrectly, including my mother who was an English teacher. Since learning how to use it correctly, I’ve noticed that nearly everyone in my region uses it incorrectly: we all say “I’m going to go lay down” and “I laid down earlier.” It sounds wrong to me to use them correctly. So I was just wondering if that was primarily just because of where I live/the people I’m around, or if most people these days use them that way.

I’m using the terms correctly/incorrectly, not to be pedantic but because there is a formal right & wrong way to use them (as in, you will get edited in any type of formal or published writing if you use them incorrectly). They’re not yet considered formally interchangeable, even though a lot of use colloquially use them that way. I just think it’s interesting that the wrong way sounds right to me, and the right way sounds wrong.

Clarification for the lay/lie poll!

Anonymous asked:

In response to my poll asking about the sex worker vs non-married person having sex (physical affair) with a married person.. to clarify: the focus is mostly on the sex worker/non-married person, not the married person (the married person is cheating either way). The spouse does not know or consent (to the physical affair- it wouldn't be an affair if they did?? or the sex worker). Both the sex worker and non-married person both know the married person is married and spouse is unaware and non-consenting. Should I make a new poll that clarifies these points? Suggestions on how to make it more clear? Help?

If you would like to make a new poll I would be happy to post it as soon as you do! Some people might comment on this post, but feel free to do whatever you're comfortable with. (:

you are doing great!! you seem like a really kind person. besides, no one can reasonably expect you to see/respond to EVERY SINGLE THING that people say in the notes of your posts.

Thank you! 💜

Anonymous asked:

i’m not even entirely sure what happened to cause that big apology note, but the fact that you care so deeply says a lot about who you are. please don’t beat yourself up over the actions of others. you are not responsible for someone else’s bigotry.

Thank you. I truly care a lot and never want anybody to feel bad, especially if I have done something to cause it.

I appreciate you sending this in! Means a lot and makes me feel a bit better.

You can’t say you keep it lighthearted and drama free here and also be posting polls where you ask are oppressed people oppressed. Either commit to “no politics” and “drama-free” and actually stick to that when you decide what polls you post, or don’t bother trying to claim you don’t post polls that are extremely inflammatory and full of outright abuse in the notes when your most popular post is one of those right now.

You keep waffling around on this — you post polls on racism, on transphobia, on societal biases — on issues that clearly don’t affect you — and let the notes get rancid. But you won’t post follow up polls that expose the prejudice of the initial poll under the guise of “fairness” and you jump quickly to “I won’t post inflammatory polls” — you already have. And already do. The amount of abuse going on borne from this blog alone is astounding.

You have no obligation to post or not post anything, ever. But don’t pretend to be impartial when you create a system that is only safe for people like you.

I honestly don’t know how to reply to this.

Anon who called the “who woulge” poll nonsense here. Thanks to everyone in the comments who explained it. I didn’t realize it came from a meme and therefore wasn’t nonsense to other people. Comment retracted, and my apologies to the person who posted that poll.

Thanks, Anon! (:
