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?”

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.

I can’t believe *any* country would consider adopting Starlink at this point, especially a democracy, when the CEO has shown an eagerness to interfere with Starlink’s service if it becomes politically interested in a global conflict, or if it thinks there could be lulz and dank memes.
