:PleaseReblog:
Question for people relying on alt text: When one posts contains multiple images, should each alt text be written independently, or does it make more sense for one text to refer back to previous ones?
Like, when the first describes shape and colour of a flower, should the second copy that description and add to it, or go "the same flower [from a different angle, showing xyz]"?

A lot of my purpose with this account has been about letting go of my past pains, embracing change and sharing some example for moving forward as I personally keep noticing healing & connection with nature. Exploring, what can we learn from that? Feeling an end of this era, a new chapter to create. Im changing my lifestyle to some degree, a place Ive come to know. This feels strange to admit but this little box on wheels has been more of my home than anywhere else Ive lived these past five years. Ive worked many seasonal & remote jobs to create time for a nomadic lifestyle. I took a minimalist approach; recognizing & experimentally embracing you can do more with less. Slowly discovering many cross over philosophies with technology enthusiasts who love to embrace terms like FOSS, Libre, FLO and others alike. Pondering if many in technology fields seem to share similar views & values with ski bums, dirtbags and nomads? Ive met so many incredible people along the way and experiencing how healing it is when we genuinely connect.

The change for me now is of great importance to reflect. To follow through on realizing the healing wouldn't be complete without helping more people ahead. The silence was good, the isolation had peace but the final words of Chris McCandless still strike me deep: "Happiness is only real, when shared." Nothing lasts forever but letting go does feel uncomfortable. Setting my own intention for a mountain mindset based around sharing an appreciation, a love & respect for the land & people. I might have taken a simple approach to experiencing a complex world. And if theres anything Id still like to learn... is it better in life to ask questions than to give answers?

I'm not sure if this is what you are after as it's not a profile, but there is a hashtag which people can use if they are disabled themselves and want an abled person to write a description in the replies.

The person replying with the description can add to indicate they are responding to the request.

There is a short story, about boys playing with a ball.

On the first paragraph something happens and the ball falls into a ditch or river and the current carries it away.

In the second paragraph, it says the same thing but the speed of the ball is expressed in numbers. The force of the current too.

This goes for a few paragraphs until at the last paragraph it's just one single but complex equation instead of a textual description.

Do you know the title?
