Which brings me to a warning.

Tempting as it can be, under no circumstances should you use the instructions I’ve provided here to assemble your own personal arm of crows to carry out acts of unspeakable evil—or even to wage justified campaigns of retribution against your enemies.

Crows are wise birds, and they will catch own quickly. Once your crow army realizes that your seeming friendship is merely an instrumental ploy to harness their power to your own ends, may God help you—for I cannot.

I made a Chrome extension that adds a "Copy Alt Text" option to the right-click menu on images. A few kind folks have offered localizations, and now it's time to cut a release.

Before I do, I'd love to add other languages. I have Czech and Japanese, can you help with others?

Open a PR to github.com/alt-text-org/alt-te or translate:

- "Alt Text Copy"
- "Copy Image Alt Text By Right Clicking"
- "Copy Alt Text"

Please boost 💜

We've been showing my kid some Terry Pratchett and reading her some books, and she's now weirdly obsessed with Rincewind. I also got her a plush Luggage, which is great.

* Last person who was a known survivor from a slave ship died in 1940.
* The last survivor of slavery that I found was Sylvester Magee, who died in 1971.

This is not a comprehensive list of "all dates relevant to all issues in racial justice in the United States". What it is meant to make clear is that, despite all the black and white photography (which is intentional), you likely have parents and grandparents who carry living memory of these events.

So history, yes. "Ancient" history, no.

Detaching this because it feels weird to include it in the same thread, but I love that @AvengingFemme also uses the word "kerfuffle." I so rarely see it used, and it makes me happy.

We don't talk enough about how, in modern society, "success" largely boils down to luck.

Sure, "hard work" also matters to some degree. But there are numerous hardworking people out there who never become successful, while others fall upwards because they were just at the right place at the right time, and had the right parents.

The notion that modern society is a Meritocracy is a lie.

My brain is trying to convince me this song lyric is "We can build bridges / into the sun" and it's NOT but maybe we should try that anyway to see how it works.
