And I mean who would not find this oddly human-faced Humpty disturbing? It’s pure nightmare fuel. #80sAdvertising #OldBritishTelly

That Kinder Surprise advert I just reblogged is apparently from 1983. I vividly recall it. It was profoundly disturbing (especially for something marketed at kids) but somehow I had parsed that in my head as a Cadbury advert. #80sAdvertising #OldBritishTelly

My wife has referred to the shedding glitter of the wrapping paper I have acquired as ‘Craft Herpes’. There’s an enduring image for you. To be fair the table is drenched in the stuff. This will take a while to clear. #ChristmasWrapping

It’s April. How am I still finding pine needles in my car? Especially as we haven’t bought a real Christmas tree since 2019. #FirstWorldProblems #AndYet

I look at the pile of Christmas snack food we have now accrued in the kitchen cupboards. I find myself questioning a) How many people we actually believe live in this house and b) How many *months* we seem to think Christmas lasts for. #ChristmasEatings #QuestioningMyLifeChoices

Welcome to December, Mastodon. Here is your annual reminder that the late, great, Sir Christopher Lee recorded an album of heavy metal Christmas songs. And if you are just discovering this for the first time today? Enjoy...

When you thinking of crackly VHS film grain and bright neon? That’s really the early 90s. Not so much the 80s at all.

And yes, there was a fair bit of electronic synth driven music. But pop culture wise? 80s Britain had lot of two tone. A lot of reggae. A lot of Ska. A lot of bluesy pretentious saxophone driven music. And good god, spare us all from all the Stock, Aitken and Waterman…
It was a lot more diverse than people seem to be remembering it.

Brown. Grey. Green. Red.
Very occasionally? Navy blue.
80s Britain was the colour palette over a painfully overcast day.
Part of what added a lot of the brown into that colour palette? Was wood panelling. Everywhere. Even TVs and radios were covered in the stuff.

Folks, forget the neon. Forget the pinks and blues.
I don’t think I can adequately convey just how Brown the early 80s was. And Beige. Seriously, looking back at 80s film and TV you would be forgiven for wondering if blue had been removed from the colour palette entirely. Plenty Red. Plenty Green. Very little blue.
And certainly never *bright* blue. Where you *had* neon signs they were mostly red or green.

I’ve been sliding back down that 80s advertising rabbit hole on YouTube again. It got me thinking.
We have been going through something of an 80s revival in the past few years (kicked off by the likes of Stranger Things). And when we see people embracing this aesthetic it’s generally very bright. Lots of neon. Pinks and blues. A loud colourful electronic synth-wave utopia.
As a guy who grew up through the early 80s, reader? I have some bad news for you…

Whooo! The latest #MastodoniOS update is interesting to say the least. Some peculiar bugs made it past the reviewers for sure.

Late in their defeat to the #ChicagoHounds on Sunday, Joe Mano scored his 1st try for the #CaliforniaLegion to secure a try BP, marking the 40th #MLR try of his career! Mano is the 4th player to pass 40 tries in MLR, and reached that mark in just 57 games! #MLR2026 #MLRStats

@Pino Carafa Well, my problem is not the alt-text.
I used to limit my alt-texts to 1,500 characters because Mastodon and its forks truncate longer alt-texts at the 1,500-character mark. In the future, I will limit them to 512 characters because Misskey and its forks should truncate them at that mark if they're longer, but instead, they delete them.
But in addition to my alt-texts, I describe my original images once more (= twice altogether). The other description is what I call the "long description", and it goes directly into the post text (as opposed to the alt-text). I don't have a character limit to worry about (over 16.7 million), so I can do what's outright unimaginable from a Mastodon point of view.
It's this long description that's causing trouble.
That is, I wouldn't wonder if the Mastodon HOA were to sanction me for my alt-text not being detailed enough when I limit it to 512 characters. In fact, I wouldn't wonder if they were to sanction me because a 1,500-character alt-text of mine is lacking important elements (descriptions of certain details, transcripts of all text within the borders of the image etc.).
