You don't necessarily need to say "image of" in your alt text for users to know it's an image. Screen readers will announce that it's an image. But it can help readers to specify if it's a hand-drawn image, Polaroid, infographic, screenshot, chart, map, diagram, or so on.

Day 49 of reminding @StarWars to keep using alt text with their images. Alt text helps Lando escape from Nandreeson the glottalphib.

Oh, and for some mysterious goddamned reason, I have to get my boarding passes at the airport. KLM, kindly go fuck yourself.

LMAO, Uber emailed me their terms of service... in Czech. I gave you a UK mobile number and a UK postcode for my cards, what the fuck made you think Czech would be my preferred language, you muppets? 😂

I'm glad I decided to finish the book I was reading in the bathtub in my hotel room instead of on a plane tomorrow. Been a while since an ending turned me into this much of a blubbering wreck 😭🥹 (The Eternal Ones by Namina Forna, in case you wondered) #MammalReads

Boy, am I glad I left for the airport early. Traffic this morning was nit fun! (Uber driver got a solid tip after being put through kilometres of traffic jam for me 😅)

Oh god, I hope this is not the same gang of rowdy Englishmen I had to endure on Friday (and if they are, I hope we're not on the same flight...)

No rowdy Englishmen detected so far, but someone in the back of this plane really should've brushed their teeth before boarding 🤢

Flight to Edinburgh is delayed by an hour 😑 I was going to have to twiddle my thumbs at Schiphol for 3 hours to begin with, so this is great news 🥱 (Still better than missing my connection by five minutes, I guess 😩)

This is day 50 of me asking Star Wars to use alt text on any and all promotional photos they post on their social media. Accessibility is a human right, and alt text helps visually impaired people interpret and understand visual media such as images and graphics

There's a mouse running around Schiphol in broad daylight. Third time I've seen it. (Across a glass wall from me and not in a currently populated area, but still, bold wee bugger!)

How to get rid of this notification that seems to have glitched halfway through forming this morning and now appears to be unclearable... 😑 (I guess uninstalling Uber would do the trick...)

Because MCon travel is cursed for me, now I'm doomed to freeze on a coach tearing through the chilly Scottish night because I can't close the little emergency windows in the roof. Not joking, I hung my entire weight off the handle, and the fucker is still open 🤨

Shit, in all this travelling, I almost forgot to remind @StarWars to keep using #AltText! The world is watching. (Well, a bunch of us are anyway 👁👁️)

Grumpy Mammal take: making the little x in the corner of in-game ads so tiny that half the time you're taken to the app store instead of closing the ad should be illegal 😡
