“Sinners,” the horror movie from the director Ryan Coogler, is on a pace to collect at least $330 million in worldwide ticket sales, a level reached by few original films in the genre.

I'm trying an experiment. If you're a bot, like this post. If you're human, keep scrolling. If you're neither, then send me a DM so we can say I discovered you!

UnitedHealthcare CEO Killed

Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealth’s insurance unit, was fatally shot outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel in what police described as a “brazen” targeted attack by a gunman lying in wait for him. What do you think?

Hi! You're seeing this because someone noticed you posting an image that doesn't contain alt text. This is not a scolding! You are loved! But everyone needs to be convinced using alt text is socially mandatory. (I sure had to be shown the way as well!) Would you mind reading this🧵 about it and why?

I very much prefer to build new communities! Especially as a blind person when no one on Instagram uses alt text. I've seen more people in the last month use it here than ever anywhere else.

Did you know Bluesky has a setting that will remind you to add alt text before posting?

Go to "Settings," then "Accessibility." Select the checkbox for "Require alt text before posting."

Generic descriptions don't convey the information or context sighted users get from the image. Examples like "election results," "group of people," "screenshot from Google," or "city skyline" may be technically be true, but they don't provide information and context.

Please please do this!

Just an FYI and a reminder. Alt Text isn't like a caption. It is for visually impaired people. A "screen reader" reads the alt text to them, so it should be descriptive text.

If it's a verbal meme, you should enter the text of the meme. If it's a visual joke, you should explain the joke.

2024 is half over and while we have seen some brilliant horror films come out this year I don't think it has been such a great year for the genre.
