Suspicions proved.

This made-for-instagram video probably has about 20% of the the bsky version does. Political content is suppressed there; I have a hunch that words like β€œcensorship” and β€œdisinformation” are too.

I’m so tired of spending hours on content that doesn’t even get shown to my followers 😩

Magnificently pleasing that you're getting way more likes and reposts here for this than he got for his shitshow shitshow.

I am in so much trouble.

I'm going to design a tiny satnav for daddy longlegs. They really don't have a clue the gangly little idiots

Cheers. Just had it confirmed that it's not s'posed to go up on the website until Sunday.

I may have been somewhat naughty posting it here on Fridays.

Thank you for confirming. Am I being naughty when I post it here on Bluesky on a Friday and would you prefer me to stop?

A screenshot of the accessibility tab in my Bluesky settings, showing the alt text toggled on "require alt text before posting"

Btw alt text is also a fun place to shamelessly editorialize on your post and there ain't no character limit. Go ahead and share the Canterbury Tales here plus throw in a random Fuck or Shitass. It's a delightful pastime

Friends, please use Alt Text whenever you post images. It helps those with sight issues understand your sparkling captions & assists those of us who are hopelessly unhip in getting your references. Just toggle it in the settings for a reminder every time you share a bot mot, THANKYOUSOMUCH

Cheers, Abby.

β€œHahaha, of course I’m not a witch,” I laugh, then sneeze and burst into a dozen bats.

Spotted some sort of telly ad last night for what looked like a podcast thingy.

Laura Keunssberg was in it too. You know, for Beeb balance.

No context reposts can be funny two ways.

πŸ˜‚ Now *that* is a funny line.

Totally gonna repost out of context. But for anyone who clicks through, they'll see it's poyfect for the scenario here.

My favourite gags are the ones where the punchline doesn't need to be included.
