I saw two posts today both identical with the image. One had alt-text the other did not. Guess which one got boosted by me?

I had given up on pleading for more alt-text but I'll try again!

Please add alt-text to your photos/pictures it only takes a minute and does not have to be fancy. My policy is not to boost images without alt-text and I am not the only one.

This is one of the cultural things I like about Mastodon, the inclusiveness. Please don't ruin it.

I hope Mr. Beige pants chokes at his breakfast. I have no idea what it is about him but I despise him. I don't hate people as it's a waste of time. But some I just look at like a piece of doggy doo-doo on the road.

Parkdale market is a bit of a bust still. Oh well. I'm sure they are a lot busier on the weekends.

So I got a phone call the other day. She started out with "'I've been making so many calls thinking I am going to get an answering machine!" So I told her Yes, I was an answering machine and hung up. Don't try to be "cute" with an autistic. Be direct and to the point.

Thinking back to the people who mistakenly thought MnRNA vaccines would change human DNA I wonder if they thought Spiderman was real science.

"We have challenges" is one of the most used phrases for "We screwed up and have a problem. Sometimes "challenges" is a legitimate term but it's still far overused. Overuse dilutes meaning.

Anyone else remember Jane Perry who was the music director at the Unitarian church? She would introduce the musicians for the concerts the Unitarian church put on. I was very surprised to see her obituary only today.

I don't know who this grey haired expert on CBC news finance is but he said the words "Since the pandemic" as if it was over.
