Lil Laddie loves his drawing. He wants to make an art video channel one day, he says.
He practices with my phone camera.
The other day, he made a little tutorial on drawing trees...

An infographic. There are six panels. 1. "Slow internet. Alt text is shown in place of unloaded images." a drawing shows a phone with poor signal, and alt text is visible where the image should have loaded. 2. "Findabillity. Alt text helps to search content." A drawing shows someone searching 'dog with banana' and a post is shown underneath without the words 'dog' or 'banana'. It is implied to be part of the alt text. 3. "Screen readers. Alt is read out to people using text-to-speech software". There is a drawing of the output a screen-reader would show when viewing an image with alt text on bluesky. 4. "Translation. Alt text can be translated". A drawing shows a post being translated. The alt text is also translated into german. 5. "Readability. Text in images can be made legible" There is a drawing of some truly awful handwriting inside a speech bubble. The alt text clarifies what the text is supposed to say. 6. "Disambiguation. Description helps clarify intent." There is a drawing of a post with a picture of a creature. This is styled after the famous optical illusion of a rabbit and a duck. The alt text clarifies that the animal is a rabbit. It definitely looks more like a duck.
Generally we think of alt-text as the domain of those with accessibility needs.
However alt-text is useful for many reasons, which benefit your viewers, as well as you, the creator!

Sometymes evil doth seeme so powerful that the heart groweth sick. But ther ys comfort yn the fact that evil ys an aberration. Our default settinge ys lovinge each othir and lookinge out and takinge care. We smyle at children. We give somebodye bus fare. We share advyce. Kyndenesse ys braverye.
Somethinge ys happeninge wyth poetrye. It ys showinge up more yn unexpectid places. People are talkinge about it more. Walke downe the streete and a poeme will fly above you. Somethinge ys goinge to happen wyth poetrye, somethinge goode. Poetrye ys on the move.

"Counseille me, Kynde," quod I, "what craft be best to lerne?"
"Lerne to love," quod Kynde, "and leef alle othere."

One more for Daud from the recent session because I liked the framing with the shrine.
Fun Fact: This shoot was actually done over two nights because the makeup was reading reeeeally weirdly on the first night. (This is a rare first-night shot).

This is just disgraceful...
I had to leave heritage work back in 2014, due to the lack of funding and lack of work.
It's absolutely gutting to see it happening again, after such a minimal recovery 😭
Blanket stitch and whipped stitch are my besties
But I actually love this kind of stitching for plushies! It's so dang cute, and yours is especially cute! He looks like something I'd constantly find, just behind me, while shuffling through my house at night (slightly ominous) 🖤
