@VedaDalsette Try posting one with no alt text, and edit after posting.

@VedaDalsette I just tried a photo, and the alt text is there. Looks like it has to be done from the beginning. Editing doesn’t help.

@VedaDalsette @ivory I’ve done it a few times now, hit save and update every time. No luck.

@ivory How come once I edit a post to add alt text, the alt text doesn’t stick? Why isn’t there a way to do that from the beginning, rather than as an edit? Or am I doing it wrong?

@flexghost @1finekitty Her constituents voted for an 85-year-old candidate in 2018, for an office with a 6-year term.

Grassley will be 95 when his term ends.

The only #gop answer to multiple murders. No action, only thoughts and prayers.

They do not work.

DONT LIKE ABORTIONS? IGNORE THEM LIKE YOU IGNORE SCHOOL SHOOTINGS

Bravo @maddow for exposing some of the Nazis in @GOP
They used to try & hide their hate but now proudly stand with FASCISTS like #VictorOrban & spout anti-Semitic bilge without consequence
