Has anyone received their "I write alt text" t-shirt yet?

[gilesdring@mastodon.me.uk]

@64bithero @mjr anyone wearing them must announce they are wearing a t shirt, and, if asked, describe the t shirt.

[gargron@mastodon.social]

@64bithero @mjr Well, like any t-shirt. Theoretically we could try to embroider braille on them, but it would drive up the cost, and then very few people would be able to/willing to buy them.

@Gargron @64bithero @mjr For those that appreciate the touch of another human.

@Gargron I received mine, and will wear it for the first time next Friday at our alternatives to big tech course, of course Will post photo.

@Gargron ok, since you asked so nicely.

@matt @Gargron @64bithero @mjr I, for one, spend a great deal of energy making it clear that people should not touch me. I believe wearing braille may defeat those endeavors. ‍️

@Ameboid @Gargron how did I not know about these t-shirts? I want one so bad!

@Ameboid @Gargron The only flex I'll allow.

@Gargron I got mine today.

[laubblaeser@ruhr.social]

@Gargron Sorry, only received a shirt telling people that my friends are not for sale. No pictures with alt text shirts possible.

[gargron@mastodon.social]

@laubblaeser Is that a mix-up? Have you already contacted me via e-mail?

[laubblaeser@ruhr.social]

@Gargron Sorry for the confusion, it was meant as a joke, but probably didn’t come across as such (and probably wasn’t that good anyway, I should just go to bed). Maybe let me try to rephrase that:

I only received my order with a shirt saying that my friends are not for sale. (Very happy with the choice btw, such a cute print and great colours.) So no picture of a shirt about alt text possible, but I could offer a picture of a shirt with alt text, if that’s of any help at all.

[norombasic@mastodon.world]

@Gargron This was a thing?

Damn...

[gargron@mastodon.social]

@NoRomBasic It still is!

[norombasic@mastodon.world]

@Gargron

[norombasic@mastodon.world]

@Gargron Great...

Now I am going to have to explain to my S/O why I just bought this as well as the My "Friends Are Not For Sale" Shirt...

[gargron@mastodon.social]

@NoRomBasic Buy one for them

@Ameboid @Gargron That elephant really is a very lovely mascot, isn't it? Does it have a name?

[gargron@mastodon.social]

@bammerlaan @Ameboid No! We actually have many different elephants in our artwork, it's not always the same one. For example, here it's Venus from the Birth of Venus.
