Hi, I’m a sighted alt text user! Here are some reasons I use it: - Slow Internet on an airplane - I’m over 40, I have no idea who that celebrity is - Bluesky broke images again - My vision sucks and that text is too small to read otherwise - Conveys further context and authorial intent

Two dinosaurs tied the knot at San Francisco City Hall yesterday afternoon. The bride wore a dainty white veil and somehow managed to carry a bouquet of pink flowers despite her famously limited reach. The groom, also a T. rex, let his natural charm speak for itself.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a horseshoe crab watches as a variety of prehistoric creatures swim towards an ethereal light. An ammonite calls back to the crab, “come on, horseshoe crab! We’re all evolving!” Panel 2: the horseshoe crab stays in position and replies, “nahh that’s crazy” Panel 3: the horseshoe crab is superimposed in front of a future premonition: a rather miserable-looking human slouched in the glow of a desktop computer. The horshoe crab swims away and says, “good luck tho”

With 9 points from 10 matches — and 1 win in that span — D.C. United back below playoff line and on course to miss out for 7th straight year — an almost impossible feat in playoff-drunk MLS. One playoff win in previous 10 years, 0 conference finals since 2012. Common denominator? 🤔

I think DS9's "There's a secret conspiracy inside the Federation who thinks the ends justify the means and we have to stop them" is a very different story than every subsequent Trek's "There are badass superspies who are the real reason the Federation is still standing."

Dark is low key the weirdest type in Pokémon because it represents the two basically unrelated concepts of magical night woo and asshole. So dark type moves are basically either "mystical twilight beam" or "kick 'em in the balls."

The image is of a four panel comic. The title above the comic reads, "The organs are a team."
The first panel shows a drawing of a stomach. The stomach says, "I digest food so it can become energy."
The second panel shows a drawing of a heart. The heart says, "I use energy to pump blood."
The third panel shows a drawing of a liver. The liver says, "I take that blood and filter it."
The fourth panel shows a drawing of a brain. The brain says, "I will actively sabotage all of you."

a surprisingly common view, this, but the beginning of standardization of American football rules, for instance, is in the 1870s, making it very close to association football (1860s) and rugby (1870s)

You do the reading, you build a thesis, you work up a few arguments, you find supporting sources, you review the reading to check you're not talking bullshit, you write it up. If you don't have at least four pages of thoughts on the topic by the time you start writing, this might not be your jam

I am once again begging people to understand that “women used to stay married” is not the same thing as “women used to be happy.” Usually it actually means “women used to have no money, no legal protection, no right to their own children, and a church lady judging them from three pews away.”
