Though not as jealous as I might have been.

I might be obsessed with keeping it zero for a little while, but I usually try and go cold turkey when giving things up.

Bluesky screenshot, showing my notifications tab. I'll save us both some time by pointing out the only relevant bit in this case is that there are zero notifications.

The top half is three overlapping pictures of Rowan Atkinson as Mr Bean, against a white background, and the bottom half is a much darker photo of Matt Berry and Toast of London. Yes, it really is that stupid.

You learn something every day on Bluesky.

Bluesky screenshot of three posts, one from Jo Wolff on top, one from Otto English on the bottom, and one from Blerrpapalotl in the middle saying "the person above me and the person below me are secret lovers"

Photo of my desk

A black desk, with considerably more dust on it than there should be for an active working environment, on which can be seen the bottom of a monitor, the side of a MacBook with a couple of black USB cables coming out, a mysterious white cable cutting across everything, and most importantly, a rubber duck with a white shirt and red bow tie, black glasses, and holding a laptop and a phone.

Touché google

Google translate of the original post from this thread from English to Dutch, except that it left the bit in quotes in English, thus defeating the whole reason for translating it.

A "this is your brain on..." meme image of a brain in the top half and an egg in a frying pan on the bottom. The top meme text reads "This is your brain on Bluesky" and the bottom meme text reads "This is an egg". I could probably have saved us both a lot of time by just writing this ALT text as "This is drivel".

"Ape together strong" meme, from the Rise of the Planet of the Apes movie, but with the new meme text "Bots together strong", and yes, I did spend way longer than I should have trying to decide if I should go with "Bot together strong" to match the grammar mistake of the original. But at least I didn't waste even more time explaining that in the ALT section that hardly anyone will read (Hi Steve).

Monty Python argument sketch image of Michael Palin and John Cleese sat at a desk in suits. Meme text above reads “X: I came here for an argument” and below “Bluesky: No you came here for a thoughtful discussion”

For completists…

Are images fixed yet?

As you've guessed, it's a blank image, hopefully will work in both dark and light mode, but I won't known for sure until I've uploaded it, by which time this ALT text will be cast in stone (#GiveUsEdit) and the likelihood of me bothering to repost, or even just delete this are pretty slim. If you've bothered to check this ALT then I think I you can consider yourself clever enough to not have fallen for the "joke".

The "Apes together strong" meme, of Neo from the Apetrix telling Morph "Freaks Together Strong"

Post a random picture or else everything will go bad in July

Random static image, i mean static as in the sort of thing you used to see on TVs before they all went digital, and it wasn't tuned to a station, not static as in the image is stationary, most images are stationary, well apart from GIFs I guess, but you know what I mean, you probably knew what I meant when I said static, rendering the last few sentences a waste of both your and my time. Still at least you'll know to stop reading my ALT texts in the future.

Fake, gaudy, temporary, painted to disguise its true colour, surrounded by fake gold, Tгump is not seen here with an arch.

The arch from the Freedom 250 State Fair, which looks like it's made from a stack of cardboard boxes painted white with the odd detail to make it look like it's marble, and some presumably fake gold plated statues on top.

Worst. Holiday. Ever.

Clipped from the image below, this has a headhot of a gentleman with a medium long grey beard in a suit and tie, with his name, Christopher Howse, beside it, and the boi text underneath saying "Christopher Howse" has spent years visiting high streets all over England. See more" and an arrow pointing down.

Handy News Update: One week out of the cast, and it’s slowly healing. I have a reasonable amount of movement in my fingers, but not much strength yet, and still the odd twinge when I move certain ways ("well don't move that way then")

A hand and lower arm making a fist of making a fist. A number of bruises can be seen.
