[Image description: text which says “You’re a 10 but it’s on the pH scale”. Underneath is a picture of a woman whose face suggests she is dropping hard truths. OP has since learned that this is a character from a show saying “You’re basic” and that the post is accidentally self-referential]

    fair! i guess i’m just saying, often when i am doing alt text, i feel a pressure from the community to get the name of every character and media reference correct, even if i am not familiar with the referenced media. I’m not sure what the correct way is to indicate that you aren’t trying to be critical, but I’m just putting that out there as a thing to be mindful of.
