Another day on Bluesky.
Another day of political posts that I can't read because people here hate disabled people & refuse to use #AltText. By the time I've passed the 10th image I can't read, the whole app becomes pointless.

I just passed 30 images on my feed, follow not discover, with zero #AltText. Yes, I counted. So I'm done with BS for the day. I'm not putting myself out there for everyone if the bare minimum of being accessible is so hard for all of you. Yes, you. Again, my follow feed. Thought y'all were better.

Yesterday I watched an 1 hour 20 minutes of a movie, failed to write down when I stopped it, returned 3 hours later--
and it took me THIRTY MINUTES too figure out where I'd left off. Only 15 minutes were left and I watched close to 45.
I feel like I'm too stupid to.. watch TV?

I feel like I don't have a right to talk about myself here in public. But also I'm having a really hard time understanding people, or making sentences that say what I meant them to say.
Those go together *terribly*.
