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.

Someone on Tumblr pointed out that "An inaccessible site is a sue-able offense."
Disability activists, I believe this is your time to shine.

#RhodeIsland considers legislation to give residents the option to have an identifier on or inside their car or license identifying them as #autistic. Proponents say the goal is to avoid misunderstanding between the officer & driver. Some opponents argue the bill would further stigmatize those with #autism. https://www.abc6.com/rhode-islanders-react-to-bill-proposing-distinction-for-drivers-on-spectrum/

I continued in the spirit of your work for #disabilityactivists my dear friend, Alex. I suggested to a coworker a place to go for driving lessons for those with #autism etc. ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Mastodon friends - the main thing I find confusing about this platform is the whole server thing?
Like I have no idea if I joined the ‘right’ server for me and the like minded audience?
Anyways just my random thoughts if anyone has any tips please let me know I’d appreciate it 🥰 #mastodonserver #mastodonsplaining #newbiequestion #newbiequestions #newbietips #newbies #disabilityactivists #disabled #NEISvoid #mentalhealth #neurodiverse #neurodivergent #MentalillnessAwareness #introduciton

Hello #AcademicMastadon and #disabilityactivists, I am a philosopher and social theorist. I mostly focus on disability politics and am currently writing a book on #neurodiversity and capitalism. I will be posting about #mentalhealthissues, #leftpoltics, disability, and also my cat Marcel.
