Im about to throw hands right meow.

I PROMISE IT'S BEEN HANDLED

emmatronix.bsky.social•65 days ago

I want names and receipts, and I WILL throw hands

magmaticmachine.bsky.social•65 days ago

it's okay, I already threw hands! And by that I mean "respectfully asking her to treat me like a person instead of a chatbot she can traumadump on and abuse freely" and then when she threatened to Disappear Forever™️ for the millionth time I blocked her 👍 There is no love in my heart for manipulators

200% the right call!!!! people like that aren't actually looking for help either in my experience, literally JUST to rant for sympathy points, like an energy vampire

magmaticmachine.bsky.social•65 days ago

Yeahh, I've played that game so many times and it's just never worth it. I'm thankful I know enough of the pattern to clock it earlier now

Still, the alt text thing she did was ABSURD. It's not for hiding secret petty messages!!! It was all so incredibly surreal haha

magmaticmachine.bsky.social•65 days ago

anyways weird personal tangent aside; if you're gonna use alt text, literally just describe the thing you're showing to people. Adjective, noun, action, transcribe text. Doesn't have to be complex. After that, you can do fun context and additional jokes with all the extra character space if you want
