I really like being called "pup" or "puppy"

There's no lewd connotations here, I just really strongly associate with dogs

@loke I'm not talking about unicode variant letters, though; I'm talking about custom emoji that just consist of a single letter (e.g.: the hackertype letters, wide letters, etc).

Those don't have unicode code points, just shortcodes (which Mastodon replaces with an image).

Without support for custom emoji, those posts just turn into a bunch of unreadable :hacker_g:​:hacker_a:​:hacker_r:​:hacker_b:​:hacker_a:​:hacker_g:​:hacker_e:, and I can't imagine it's any better for screen readers

hi I've had a rough day

I was supposed to get a cleaning at the dentist, got a tooth pulled instead

Three hours at the dentist, for one tooth, because the crown broke off and the roots were curved and buried into the bone

And then scraped up a bit tripping at the entrance to Walgreens to drop off the prescriptions I was given

I'm on really heavy painkillers and still hurting a tad bit nevertheless

Send all your hugs

@ashiinu enby (genderfluid) chiming in

hecking valid

you know I can't help but think "using custom emoji letters for an entire toot" is a worse accessibility sin than "images without descriptions"

@Trev @KitRedgrave i'm gonna look back, because I still have a SimCopter cd in my room

Fun Nicalis fact: Did you know that almost all of the "fan" translation of Cave Story is actually buried within the data files of Cave Story Wii and Cave Story +?

Did you also know that most of the special modes in those games were also lifted straight from the community with no credit given?

I was two seconds away from buying Ikaruga on Switch and then noticed the publisher was Nicalis.

@bootsy currently it doesn't even matter if they're allowed, most formatting tags don't even do anything because the reset CSS strips them of their function
