A #MEGATHREAD : my threads about #Defence of #Finland & #NATO 's Northern/Eastern Flank. Bits of #History, #SecurityPolicy & #Strategy too - and archived Twitter threads from my archival account (@[email protected]), so you don't have to go to the Bad Place. In somewhat random order.

OK folks, I think it’s time for a #GIF & #meme #MegaThread for all your #shitposting needs – including handy-dandy #ALTtext (of course) because everyone deserves to be able to join in the fun & normalising #accessibility is #coolAF… 🤘 💁‍♀️

I use my phone’s text replacement function to save ALT text in a way that allows me to easily drop it on images in any subsequent shitpost, & I encourage you to do the same if your device(s) also have a text replacement / text extender function

personally, I use // in front of the trigger word so that I don’t accidentally expand text all the time, but you can pick anything that’s easy to type & unlikely to accidentally trigger the text replacement

let’s start with the classics as a worked example…

for the GIF below (posted here as a vid ‘coz masto converts actual GIFs to vids anyway to save on bandwidth), I use

trigger: //getout

expands to: A clip of Cary Grant from a black and white movie. He has an exasperated look on his face and is motioning towards the door with one arm while saying “Get out.”

once I have a bunch™ of these in the thread I’ll turn it into a blog post complete with all the GIFs / vids / memes for ease of future reference & archiving 🙃

please feel free to reply to this thread with your own examples of #artisinal #HandCrafted GIFs & memes and the ALT text you use to describe them
