*y'all NEED use CWs, yes, *you* do! NSFW, caps lock, repeating emojis, politics, etc
*y'all NEED add alt text/image descriptions to images, yes even the memes with a lot of text, *usually* the shorter the description is the better
*if you're a creative-type and want attention add hashtags
*if you *don't* want extra attention add a and/or

PS I know most of the newer/updated instances say 'publish' but here we TOOT! 🐘 🔊
Tips for new artists here:
Use hashtags! This is how your posts can be sought out from other instances too. Hashtags can also be followed, just like following accounts! Very useful for having stuff pop into your timeline that you're interested in.
Use alt-text! Prior to the twitter migration, most images had descriptions for the visually impaired, (also useful for bad internet). Let's try to keep this place accessible. Some people won't boost images without it!

⚠️ CW/TW: I love storms, use a lot of caps lock, and old school emoticons :3
