There is an option in "controls" (found under the "my hubski" heading at left) for "global-posts". The default is set to many, I believe. Global posts are posts from outside of your feed that are stuck in to help people accidentally discover new content. You can switch your settings to have few or zero global posts. We're currently thinking of better methods to discover good content that users might not otherwise see, but its a work in progress.
