And on the web interface there's a button to "Delete and redraft", in case you forget to add the alt-text. It removes your past, and puts it back in the editor, where you can add the alt-text and repost.

There are many people on Mastodon who are good and smart and cool and who genuinely care about marginalized communities. There are also many of those same people who, for whatever reason, don't add #AltText (aka "captions") to the images they post.

Let's change that!

It's easier to do than it seems, and there are tools like @PleaseCaption that will remind you. Plus more people will get to enjoy your posts and some users will only boost image posts that include alt text.

My flight’s about to take off and I’m worried about what would be known as my last words if the plane were to crash because I want to be remembered as intelligent, thoughtful, and well-spoken, so 
YOLO, bitchezzzzzzz!

They don't want a functioning democracy. They want a system where they're in charge, always.

Pennsylvania Republicans are at it again, ignoring standard democratic protocols and claiming a majority that they failed to win at the ballot box in order to jam through a series of state constitutional amendments in a matter of weeks.

Accepting election results and ensuring a peaceful transfer of power is a cornerstone of a healthy democracy. Republicans in the state House should take heed of their loss, step aside and allow the Democrats to take their rightfully won majority and stop trying to force through the very policies that lost them the election in the first place. That’s how a functioning democracy is supposed to work. #Pennsylvania

Way back in the olden days, they used to have refillable personal hygiene products. Fun fact: You could use the same kit (but with a different nozzle attachment) for enemas. Which is about 3 kinds of yuck I wouldn't even want to discuss, but there it is. This is where the name "douchebag" comes from.

re: Selfie, eye contact 

@Oliviawerth
If I was choosing your makeup, on the eyes I'd stick with copper/gold/brown - but then I'm an old man, and my style sense got stuck sometime around 1985. πŸ˜€β€‹

Selfie, eye contact 

My wife decided to do a double-play-for-the-holiday special edition of Doing Olivia’s Makeup (still workshopping the name, but can’t help feeling the acronym may be appropriate at least), & in honor of a nice sunny day after the recent storms went with a rainbow theme #transjoy

I hope your day was Merry and bright and you found reasons to love yourself just as you are. You are beautiful as you are. ❀️

I want to go back in time to a year before all of my friends were pregnant and constantly talking about being pregnant.

Oh, to be 12 again.
