For everyone who thinks Alt-text is text in your *post* that describes your photo: No! It is *attached* to the photo! You can still do a silly post about your pic *and* do alt-text! Example:
Acclimatization/escalation. They say if you need a big favor ask for a small favor first. There're people who went and were surrounded by like minded ppl, became braver, more willing to go farther next time, folks that wouldn't have done more than protest that now might be willing to do more than.1/

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.
I glanced down at the message.
