#Alt4You: A photo of The Vivienne, a white drag queen, dressed in an elegant dark green scalloped asymmetrical off-the-shoulder gown with a matching green wig. She's standing in front of a "Wicked" sign, and Tia Kofi, a black drag queen who's dressed in a frilly pink number with red pumps and flat blonde hair, is standing next to her and seems to be whispering into The Vivienne's ear.

#Alt4You: From "Stories" aka @/TheStoriesDiary:
"My sister came home from school one day and asked me to take her to the library so she could get books on sign language. She said there was a new kid at school who was deaf and she wanted to be friends with him. Today I stood beside her at their wedding, watching her sign 'i do.'"

@DGI #Alt4You:
"Women everywhere are always expected to continually imagine what one situation or another would look like from a male point of view.Men are almost never expected to do the same for women. So deeply internalized is this pattern of behavior that many men react to any suggestion that they might do otherwise as if it were itself an act of violence.
--David Graeber"
Accompanied by a photo of Graeber, a slightly paunchy middle-aged white man wearing a white shirt, yellow vest, and staring towards the viewer with a thoughtful, penetrating look.

#Alt4You: 2 images, but the first is missing #DescriptiveText. It's a still from Persepolis, Satrapi's animated film based on her graphic novel of the same name, showing soldiers facing each other with guns with a pit in between them.

#Alt4You (did you know that queer people have higher incidences of disability than cishet people??): Book cover for "Bisection" by Sheila Jenné. Illustration is of two feminine faces, one in warm yellow/orange tones and the other in cool blue/teal tones, looking away from each other but connect by a network of black dendrites.

Image from the toot above, but with #DescriptiveText(Incidentally the woman in this meme has made a career out of being kombucha girl. She just does social media appearances now. She's queer-friendly, tho I don't recall if it's bc she's queer herself or not)

@textfiles image description: Both images in toot above are grainy stills from a VHS tape taken in a small space with brick walls
A slim brownhaired white woman wearing a white shirt and red vest stands in front of another woman who's playing on a drum kit
A different white woman, wearing a striped t-shirt, with brown wavy hair covering her face plays the bass and sings into a mic. Next to her, a white woman with black hair and wearing a blue v-neck top plays a guitar. A bit of the drum kit is visible behind them, also a man behind the stage area

And in almost all cases the image is duplicated in the card, so it's just a "waste" of space. I'd just wish they'd leave it off.

#Alt4You: a fisheye view of a chain link fence with signs on it warning that an asbestos disposal area lies beyond
#accessibility - do any "news" accounts give a fuck? Don't you want more rather than less people engaging with your stories? #DescriptiveText is not that hard. Or, just leave the photo out altogether. It's not like it's essential to the story.

The image above is intensely wild: It's a colorful, psychedelic line drawing in late 60s/early 70s style. Two skeleton girls (their faces, hands, and feet are bones) with fat asses and long black hair are seated in perfect symmetry, backs to each other, each holding a daisy and wearing a thong. Between them, in a sky of wavy purple/pink stripes, is a circular blue/orange/yellow design that evokes an eye, and a sun, and a flower, with a smiley face in its center. On either side of it, above the heads of the fat ass skeleton girls, are two stylized planets with a ring. Trippy. Very cool. #Accessibility #Alt4You #DescriptiveText

At link: a cute video of a baby sloth yawning.
#DescriptiveText appears to have been written by an LLM, which is quite confident that the sloth is a dog.

@TimMaddog Uh huh. What I meant was, how are they to know that the text in the post is describing the photo in the post? How would they know that it is, in fact, a photo of the protest, and not, say, a photo of bombs falling on Gaza?
If you're just determined to never use #DescriptiveText to make your posts accessible to low-vision (and lousy-internet!) people, just say so now and we can block each other. I have several blind followers, so I wouldn't want to be boosting the account of someone who hates them into their feed. #accessibility
