I remember the irony when everyone on tumblr was adding [image captions] to all their image posts

but the tumblr app was impossible to use with a screen reader and didn't ever read those image captions out to the user. It didn't read out any of the menu buttons.

And before you think about this as only affecting just a few people

More people on the internet use screen readers than the populations of canada and mexico

"I don't want to talk about it too much," I say, while talking about it, constantly, because it's all I can think about

Updated OKCupid questions:

Do you think introducing your partner to an open source decentralized microblogging platform could be a romantic activity?

would not recommend experimenting, even for dev purposes

There's been a lot of back and forth on how emoji input should work in the web UI and its emoji picker, I want to gauge public opinion: http://www.strawpoll.me/13489129

All the begging I see on Mastodon has convinced me even more that a basic income is necessary.

I've seen several posts mentioning that the user asking for donations doesn't have enough to eat. Many are asking for donations to cover health care. It's 2017, no one should have to beg to cover basics like food and health care.

SO FUCK THIS SHITTY ECONOMIC SYSTEM. PEOPLE MATTER MORE THAN MONEY. WHERE IS THE UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME???

"the 90's sexy computing" is the new name for my aesthetic

What could be better from the culture side:

- understanding the value of others work
- using and supporting already existing resources
- working together on "how can we the improve the #fediverse as best", instead of being "one plattform focused"

Also if you ever want to send my broke ass $$$$ to pay for my bills, both late and current -

Is there anywhere to talk about plausibility/science of stuff in futuristic/sci-fi shows and games?

i am poor and have to pay out of pocket and unlike many europeans i cant "just see a dr" like its no big thing :( so i ask, if anyone would be generous enough to donate some money for the appointment /medication (via paypal) it would be very, very greatly appreciated. i can send a paypal address if so. thank you very very much 💜
