"I hope this email finds you well"

How your email finds me:

ALT text (somehow disappeared from post): a photo of a screaming possum in a mailbox
@aliceschwarze I see the alt text on the image
@peter hm, then maybe this is a tusky glitch. Thanks for letting me know!
@aliceschwarze @peter I also see the alt text and I'm using Tusky!
@peter @aliceschwarze I don't (on desktop)

@nxskok @aliceschwarze That's odd.

I'm using the web UI on Linux, in Advanced mode, and it definitely is there, just checked it again.

@peter @aliceschwarze oh yeah, now it's there. I dunno. Computers are hard.
@peter @aliceschwarze @nxskok I’m on an iPhone using Metatext app. no alt text for me.
@aliceschwarze hm, to me it shows just fine in the post
@aliceschwarze Don't worry, it's there! If you're using the Mastodon web UI then alt text is only shown as a tooltip when you hover over the image for a bit.
@aliceschwarze similar energy to this will only take a moment.

P.S. We remind you of our Terms and Conditions: Absolutely no returns. You may exchange your possum, but the next one will be even more irate.

P.P.S. You might want to get a rabies shot. We know possums don't usually carry it, but...well....look at it.

@aliceschwarze this sums up how I feel about morning office work generally.

My spirit animal appears to be "agitated possum in mailbox". Who knew? (My husband. He knows. He definitely knows.)

@aliceschwarze It's all bluster. They're sweethearts... We know because we get visits from the neighborhood opossums every night!
@aliceschwarze I nay have to make this my new avatar, lol

@aliceschwarze I run my own mail server. This picture checks out.

@aliceschwarze

@aliceschwarze aw, that poor possum, they look terrified

@aliceschwarze

@ShiolaOdan

@aliceschwarze But generally with coffee.
