Holy crap! SocialBu scheduler now gives you the ability to add alt text to images it posts to Mastodon.

THANK YOU.

That means I can now use this to schedule my posts and @writingtheother posts and drop @buffer like a hot potato!

And for my peeps who care about #accessibility, SocialBu is one of the only schedulers that can send posts to Mastdon AND has alt text.

Uber driver to me: “So, were you born this way?” Me: “By this way I’m assuming you mean fabulous? It’s ok, you can say the word, I won’t be offended!” Driver: “There isn’t like … a surgery they can do to fix you?” Me: “Why would you fix fabulousity? I mean if I could have the ability to fly, then I’d consider it but honestly, why mess with perfection?”

As two billionaire oligarchs fight for control of #Russia and two billionaire oligarchs are getting ready for a cage fight for control of America, I have a modest proposal.

Why not have all four go into the cage together? Winner gets to control the entire planet. Of Mars.

As soon as the winner leaves the cage he’s immediately put on a rocket to his new kingdom.

Please note that when the US employ armed thugs, they’re “contractors”, while they are described as “mercenaries” when anyone else does it.

This was yr vocab lesson for today.
