I'm a millennial, no exact age to be given. As TMBG once said, I should be allowed to blurt the merest idea if by random whim one occurs to me.

They're also responsible for one of the best emails I've ever received, when the college office sent out a plea for sightings of Professor Biscuit while conveniently forgetting to mention that he was a cat...(I won't comment on how often a similar email might have gone out about human Professors...)

This might be a stupid question, but if the aurora is supposed to not be visible to the naked eye but yes visible to camera, will it show up in the phone's preview? It'sa bit cloudy and im not seeing anything, but I'm also on the southern limit of the prediction. (I'm hoping tomorrow is better.)

Ooh, you've still got Snapdragons? That's my favorite apple and I can only find them like one, maybe two weeks out of the year and I never know which grocery store will have them. It was Trader Joe's this time, but I've seen them at Kroger and the IGA before.

Saw this post, saw other people's responses, hope it's ok for a stranger to chime in. I keep my microwave on top of the fridge because it saves counter space and the fridge is not *super* tall. And then it's right above the freezer meals.

And believe me. There are people down here I *hate* deeply and personally. I'm not going to forgive them. I will never be in community with them. Their names are dust to me because they glory in hurting the people I love and honestly, in hurting me.

I will shun them while they get healthcare.

It's ok if you are new to alt text or aren't confident with how to use it yet. Just give it a try!

Alt text has been around for decades. It used to be popular on dial-up when pictures wouldn't load, instead of just having a blank square. It's the same thing now. Used by people with vision issues.
