When writing alt text, focus on what is actually in the image. Any relevant information that isn't describing the image itself should be in a caption below the image, not in the alt text. This includes photo credits, permissions, and copyright information.

I know people have feelings and many of them are valid but one thing about visible speed cameras besides dissuading speeding is they never end up shooting the driver like our other method of enforcement does

as a fully committed flip flop to airports wearer, in my experience, if you look like me and don't get the shoes off in 0.02 seconds, TSA takes you for the "random bomb swab" and a long chat in a back room so I wear whatever is closest to naked feet and get the fuck past security fast as I can.

Libraries are one of the most radical social institutions we have, because they’re based on the idea that *everyone* has the right to information, for free. It’s also what makes them crucial to democracy. I will never stop yelling about this!

The impact of having to choose between starting a family, or owning a home, and how those two used to be tied together but are now almost mutually exclusive, is going wreak havoc on both economies and society down the road.

It's so funny to read 60s-70s fantasy/sci-fi by men where there will be these beautiful women characters who are just psychotically bent on betraying or destroying the protagonist and it's like "oh right right you're the first widespread cohort of Divorced Guys"

You don't necessarily need to say "image of" in your alt text for users to know it's an image. Screen readers will announce that it's an image. But it can help readers to specify if it's a hand-drawn image, Polaroid, infographic, screenshot, chart, map, diagram, or so on.

The important thing to understand about this stuff is that the operating process for the far right is to make its most serious messages seem unserious or coded. This is why so much is framed as "just joking" or "triggering libs" or using code words like "globalist."

This is like when an overt racist white person “tests” other white people around them with a racist comment that they can blow off as “a joke” if needed. But it’s really to connect like with like, racist with racist, fascist with fascist, wink wink nudge nudge

I work IT for public schools and I have a whole little speech about how basic tech literacy has been a requirement for 99% of all jobs for decades and at a certain point saying "I'm not good at tech" is saying "I don't know how to do the basic functions of my job".

"Oh I'm not very good at tech." You're 47 and have been teaching in an IT-driven environment for over twenty years. Combining PDFs should not be beyond your ken.

One of my — perhaps unpopular —theories about academic life is that no external commencement speaker is worth the potential downsides nor the actual costs. Moreover, every university has charismatic faculty members who would do a bang up job most of the time.

The kids are alright.
Tweet by @juuuila

Had a Columbus police officer come to our class and he asked the class if anyone could define assault and some kid raised his hand and said "kicking a handcuffed man who's laying face down in the head"
OHHHHHHHH MY GOD!!!
he goes "well that could be resisting arrest" the kid goes "he's handcuffed. face down on the ground." Cop goes "we're not gonna talk politics now"

A lot of artists don't use alt text, presumably because their medium is visual. However, if you're an artist, alt text helps people with visual impairments not feel left out; they can be aware of what their friends are commenting on and reacting to. (It also helps you search your own posts later!)

I see another "it is impossible to make a living writing" post making the rounds so I just want to tell you again about something the Icelandic government does. They give writers salaries to write books. Icelandic is such a small language, which makes for a very small book market ... 🧵

This is sunspot region 3664, seen in ultraviolet. It’s what caused all of that solar activity at the weekend, and it’s still active. It spat out another X-class flare a couple of hours ago.
UV image of the lower right quarter Sun, tinted blue. Most of the Sun’s surface is darker here, with the solar corona appearing like a haze. A huge bright patch in the image shows a cluster of sunspots, below arcs of hot plasma caught in their magnetic fields.

A decade ago a journalist asked me what I consider to be "obscene" and this was my response. I've changed and grown a lot since then, but you know what? I haven't changed my mind at all on this! (Also, whoa, 28k notes O.O ) sweaterkittensahoy.tumblr.com/post/7098342...
Screencap of https://sweaterkittensahoy.tumblr.com/post/709834275807232000/newsmutproject-you-keep-these-kids-ignorant

"        ““You keep these kids ignorant and then suddenly they’re in a situation that they don’t even have the words for and they have no idea what to do,” she says. “They’re not taught how to ask for consent, how to give consent, how to revoke consent and stop mid-way through. They don’t know to use protection or to demand it if it’s absent, they don’t know this will spread STIs and pregnancy. They don’t know it’s not supposed to hurt. Can you believe that? So, so, so many people think that sex is supposed to hurt the partner with a vagina when they have sex for the first time. They think that’s just the way it is, that’s just how it goes. *That* is obscene to me. Enforced ignorance that inevitably results in physical and emotional damage, *that’s* obscenity.””

    — Rich Goldstein asked me what I consider to be obscene in his article on my work, ‘Oh Joy Sex Toy’:"

I am convinced that the worst thing about the internet is that it allowed people who historically would have been considered the worst person in town and totally ostracized for their perpetual bad vibes and opinions to find out that they have thousands of global allies and after that it was so over.
