Randall, I haven't been on xkcd in a while and I checked in a bit ago today and saw this and went "Oh wow, I guess there hasn't been a post in over a week"
I'm so glad to have been wrong, happy to see it was a belated.
you are walking through the desert. you come upon a pole, a pole that had no earthly right to be there, with a sign on it. below the sign was a button. the sign read "do not press" in hundreds of languages
would you press the button?
I presume you have a bot running for the usual posts - any chance you can have the alt add alt-text to the images there too? Even the comic's alt-text is fine
This is especially timely because my friends and I have a discord bot that automatically posts new xkcds when one comes out, and a few days it broke and flooded the channel with like a month's worth of comics.

(Fuck I'm gonna get a lot of annoying replies from this, aren't I)
Perhaps.
Only time will tell.
My phone just flat out blocked the notifications.
He's not amused.
also day 11 of factorizing xkcd

gotta stay consistent

BTW my "word" is "naptime", OK people, let it rip :)
PLEASE
I can’t say I wasn’t warned.
Though they seem to have stopped now...
I might have pushed the big red button to see what would happen.
For at least a few minutes. Until I figured out how to undo that.
I may have poor impulse control.
