Does she include a video of herself pointing at it?
I know at least one person on here who is the embodiment of this comic.
Hey now, she puts an unrelated background behind the tweet so it meets the aspect ratio and dimension expectations of the platform too.
Cool, those are the douches breaking the web by stubbornly refusing to understand the humble web link.
Post needs text alternative.
Images of text break much that text alternatives do not. Losses due to image of text lacking alternative such as link:
- usability
- we can’t quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
- text search is unavailable
- the system can’t
- reflow text to varied screen sizes
- vary presentation (size, contrast)
- vary modality (audio, braille)
- accessibility
- lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
- some users can’t read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
- users can’t adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
- systems can’t read the text to them or send it to braille devices
- web connectivity
- we have to do failure-prone bullshit to find the original source
- we can’t explore wider context of the original message
- authenticity: we don’t know the image hasn’t been tampered
- searchability: the “text” isn’t indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
- fault tolerance: no text fallback if
- image breaks
- image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.
Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.
- usability
calling memeslop “content” in the first place.

She didn’t say she was a good content creator.
What’s with the shorts that are a tweet on top of a video of a kinda sad looking grandpa drinking soda, is that old man ok? Is he a hostage? Why does he have such sadness in his eyes?
Woo I’m a content creator
