I couldn't think of a better place where to take a portrait with my new, awesome @Mastodon t-shirt that reads: "I write #AltText" : the Louvre Museum, in front of the painting "The Battle of David and Goliath" by Daniele da Volterra.

And may I share an ambitious goal with you?
I want to start advocating for the Louvre Museum to join the Fediverse (they're currently on all Big Tech social platforms only). Let's see what I can do 🤗
"I Write Alt Text" - Unisex T-Shirt - French Navy
An organic cotton t-shirt with a great feel, screen printed in 5 vibrant colors. Writing alt text for images and videos helps people with low or no vision participate in the community.Mastodon

Good luck.

If by the end of 2026 the European Commission has the link to their Mastodon account on their homepage... and the Louvre joins the Fediverse, I know it would have been a very good year

in reply to Andy Carolan • • •@andycarolan I joined because the last time I bought tickets to take the little one there she was sick... and tickets are very expensive and non-refundable.
So I thought a membership would be great as no pressure if we have to cancel at the last minute.
Plus: priority access to get in. Last Saturday we skipped a queue with 200 people in front 😅

in reply to Elena Rossini ⁂ • • •Oh it's awful when they miss out because of sickness. We had to abandon a vacation on the second day when my son was sick. Didn't get a refund at all, despite holiday insurance.
Looking at the prices, Louvré appears to be €95 for a solo membership... €150 for two? That's extremely good value if you visit it a few times!
Wow, that line skip must have felt awesome lol
Elena Rossini ⁂
in reply to Andy Carolan • • •@andycarolan yeah I paid 95 for solo since for my child is free... our 3 tickets cost 22 Euros (for my husband). And indeed, skipping that insane line felt AMAZING!
sorry to hear about your son and that vacation, sigh. despite holiday insurance? what?

Caucasian = either someone from the Caucasus region (not, typically by today's categories, a white person) or a white person under one of a handful extraordinarily racist categories.
You can just say white, if that's a useful detail!

my 5-year-old (who loves her Plushtodons) is a little frustrated there are no Mastodon t-shirts in children's sizes. She would love one 😅
Pinging @Gargron for this request (I'd promised her I would ask) 🤗

in reply to Elena Rossini ⁂ • • •Maybe the painting should go on a T-shirt.
You're right, the picture is the perfect background for you.
Good luck with the Louvre.

in reply to Elena Rossini ⁂ • • •Great! May they listen to you and learn how to write alt text. 😁
It would be so easy for them to have at least automated content. And hey, they could join that French instance reseauculture.fr/about for #culture and #museums!
@parismusees has already an account. And perhaps @ChristineDebray could be a helpful contact?
