   The relentless assault of bad news... overwhelming.

   My twins dealing with their Crohn's flare ups... overwhelming.

   I just got the professional photos of #LaffysBigTownhouseRenovation... finally. Might be a good time to post them.

   There are so many. I'll post befores/afters, but it'll be a lot and take awhile. And I doubt I can alt text each one. I may need your help there.

   It'll be one long thread under the above hashtag. I'll number the posts.

     #HowTo #AltBot

     Very well, just minor editing necessary.

     1) Upload a pic, address at @altbot as "private"

     2) wait for the reply (might take quite some time), edit

     3) Generate the post, using the reply

     OR

     1) right your post as usual, type cc @altbot

     add [#AltText will be added]

     2) Upload and wait

     3) return to you post copying the bots suggested text

     4) delete the @altbot references (or their might be awkward messages to the people replying in the convoy)

     @GottaLaff

     I'm not sure whether you saw the output of #AltBot, here it is, unedited:

     "A black background has a large, upside-down red triangle in the center. The triangle is textured with cracks and red paint. The following text is in a white, sans-serif font: "IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH", "FREEDOM IS SLAVERY", and "WAR IS PEACE". Underneath the text, in smaller, black text is "Jazz Beitler". Below that,...

     @HistoPol I see all the replies.

     Plus, it would take me forever. I apologize to alt text readers, but sometimes I can't accommodate.

     ... "INGSOC" is written in a white rectangle with a black border. The rectangle is also textured with cracks and dark paint.

     I find it quite good, it even found "Jazz Beitler" in the background.
