I think that the nagging people are the bad guys, not those who need the alt text. Please don’t feel unwelcome here. Plenty of people express intolerant views that make me feel unwelcome, but I’m still here anyway. So don’t let insensitive/intolerant people chase you away either.

Plenty of schools are closing tomorrow, making it the third this week since a winter storm came through earlier in the week. ❄️
