A little accessible and inclusive content creation hot tip:
Instead of just linking directly to xkcd, consider additionally or alternatively linking to the relevant entry on https://explainxkcd.com instead.
There, each xkcd comic has a full, descriptive transcript, and the hover text is printed as plain text, making the comic much more accessible for your blind (or otherwise screenreader-using) followers and for mobile users alike.
Plus, the joke explanations are helpful!
