A slightly wet otter showing its bottom teeth to the camera. He is very cute

A baby otter being held up by a blue gloved hand. His face is centered in the photo and he looks very annoyed that his photo is being taken.

I have to confess, I'm not a person, but 4 different otters

While I absolutely understand that the picture here is AI, this same tool was used against me with my own selfies before that it claimed was “likely AI” so even the tools have to be taken with a grain of salt 🙃🙃🙃

This whole thing confuses me. Altspaceforce has spoken highly of altnps before and explained the reasoning for them not being in the starter pack or having the verified badge. Has the alt gov account backtracked on their support for altnps?

Medicaid helped me diagnose my daughter’s severe congenital heart condition early, giving us time to plan and a better chance at surviving her birth. Gutting Medicaid and Medicare helps no one but those who are rich enough to sit back on their gold thrones and watch as the rest of us suffer.

This is me if anyone was wondering

Omg it is you!

Kendrick would’ve had more of Drake’s exes in the show but it was a school night

"The halftime show was boring."

Look, you may not be familiar with the genius of Kendrick Lamar and couldn't quite hear the lyrics and don't know the backstory and the symbolism went over your head, but trust me when I say you'll want to read an analysis of it and rewatch. A true masterpiece.

Meaning behind it.

As someone who is Gen Z I feel like a a lot of the attitudes I have seen is a true testament to how much media literacy is dying in the US. I know it’s not the only issue, but, at least from what I have seen in my generation” a lot of people want the curtains to just be blue and ignore the deeper-

I should not have to fact check news stations and political leaders

Oh shit there’s a chance my daughter might be born under a lunar eclipse!

Omg yay! Thank you so much!

Same. I wanted a chance to fight for Gaza rather than having to focus my energy on ensuring that we are able to stay safe here in the US. Gaza deserves all of our undivided attention, and unfortunately we aren’t able to give them that with the current admin now.

I have a friend who was so looking forward to sending me stuff (including handmade stuff) for my baby 😞. Thank you for sharing this. I don’t think she’s sent it yet and I can warn her before she looses out on the shipping money.

Mine apparently didn’t get the memo and desperately need to

The flowchart begins with a 'Start' oval leading to a diamond decision box asking, 'Does the TITLE or ABSTRACT contain keywords and context that implicate the EOs?' If 'Yes,' it leads to a box stating, 'Retain flag, DEIA and other EO language found (Category 3)' and then to an 'End' oval. If 'No,' it continues to another diamond decision box asking, 'Does the PROJECT SUMMARY contain keywords and context that implicate the EOs?' If 'Yes,' it leads to the same 'Retain flag, DEIA and other EO language found (Category 3)' box and then to the 'End' oval. If 'No,' it continues to a third diamond decision box asking, 'Does the PROJECT DESCRIPTION contain keywords and context that implicate the EOs?' If 'Yes,' it leads to the same 'Retain flag, DEIA and other EO language found (Category 3)' box and then to the 'End' oval. If 'No,' it leads to a box stating, 'No DEIA or other EO language found. Add comment to explain why 'no' was chosen (Category 1)' and then to the 'End' oval.”

It should do it for post replies as well! It just worked for me in another reply that I made with a screenshot. Maybe they recently updated it!

Also seconding the saving option. That would be extra handy. Half the time my copy paste function on my phone wants to not work properly for some reason 😑😅

A cropped screenshot of the Bluesky accessibility settings the setting to require alt text before posting is enabled as shown by a toggle slid to the right that is highlighted blue while the other options such as “display larger alt text badges” under the alt text category and “disable haptic feedback” under the “haptics” category are disabled. There is a back button at the top left corner. The background is a dark grey and most of the text is blue with the only exception being a link for content and media settings located at the bottom. The text on the screen reads in order: Accessibility (located at the center top in bold lettering) Alt text (with a symbol of a circled stick figure to the left of it) Require alt text before posting (toggled on) Display larger alt text badges (toggled off) Haptics (with a vibrating phone symbol to the left) Disable haptic feedback back (toggled off) Autoplay options have been moved to the Content and Media settings. (In smaller text inside of a box. A small eye symbol sits to the left of the beginning of the text and “Content and Media settings” is written in blue text to indicate that it is a hyperlink.)

It is in the accessibility settings! It’s a little toggle switch that you can enable!
