I #tooted two posts with images in the last two days. In both cases I added a #description for the #VisuallyImpaired but when I tap and hold my #image I don't see that description. How do I confirm that the image description has been included in my #toot ?

#today #3goodthings (kinda)
1) I've been sat at #computer doing my stuff and couldn't work out why it kept making little #peeps. Looking here, looking there, closing this, then that.
2) Finally realised the cartoon I #tooted earlier is producing lots of #boosts and it peeps with each notification, wow!
3) I'm finally feeling a bit #viral 😹

#Interesting. A #toot I just #tooted a few minutes ago seems to have #disappeared from the #metaverse.

#Seriously.
Just had an #interaction with someone I've #tooted back at previously at least a few times.
Apparently my light-hearted joke was taken as a potential attack.
Why? #WHY? Why? Why is it that we have #allowed ourselves , and by ourselves I mean almost #EVERYONE on the #internet to #devolve so far into digital "Cabin Fever" that a light-hearted joke is seen as a possible #attack?
When did we decide that being ready for the VERY low fucking percentage of #people who actually wish to do us harm means CREATING MORE #ANIMOSITY by not being open to a simple hello?
Another example of this...
Before #Christmas at an Outlet Mall I was walking with my #family into a #store, and saw a #cute #gay #couple walking to a different store. They crossed in front of us.
One of the couple was wearing some really cute/cool dangle X-Mas #earrings. I may have been staring, but only because the earrings looked cool to me. I could feel them #tense up and "hide" from me looking. As they crossed close enough, I said, "Cool earrings!" to them, loud enough that they could hear it.
They turned around a few seconds later and said, "Thanks!".
Their initial instinct was to #assume I was #staring out of #hatred.
Why?
Yes, there's #precedent, but hiding yourself away from the vast majority of people who will take you as you are, and even #PUSHING them #AWAY only makes it seem worse than it really is.
They WERE cool earrings (and I wanted to see them in more detail!)
There WAS an option missing on that poll (and I was injecting humor regarding that missing option!)
If you push the #good people away, you will only have the #assholes left to deal with, which self-fulfills your view that everyone's out to get you - and we're not.
Fucking stop it.

I found this helpful while searching and tweaked it... Image for honesty.

@alandownie I'm still feeling that way myself. There is still so much happening on the followers / following on Twitter that I know that I am missing out on. That said, I have #Tooted on, boosted and favourited on a broader range of subjects here than I have in a long time and my Apple Watch heart rate monitor rarely goes off (politics mainly) . I think I'll eventually wean myself off Elon Musks omnishambles sooner than later and look to connect to old and new and be more social in the truer sense.

Inspired by a certain #social gameshow of the 2010s - this account will be used to drop a nightly #hashtag #comedy #prompt and share hilarious answers #tooted by users who use the tag.
No points. No clout. Just jokes.
First #hashtag goes live at Midnight PST, tonight. Let's have some fun.

Dear #MedTwitter on #MedMastodon,
I #tooted about being impersonated on #twitter and now 7 Dr. Zack Bergers have followed me.
Can anyone confirm who is the real one? Thank you!
