Ten Bears post is really good and seriously important. This is something that everyone needs to understand. The big money and fossil fuel industry desperately wants to rake every last dollar they can, no matter the cost to the world, before their deep investments in a vanishing substance is worthless. It is another example of the way the wealthy have been forcing the US government using greedy politicians to fuck over the public, the people, the environment, other public needs, basically the entire country to gain more wealth. Please go to Ten Bears post and read it.
Not to distract from that but again WordPress decided to fuck up something that worked really well. When reblogging someone’s content you got a comment box to add your thoughts. That would post your comment to the person’s blog and sent the comment plus a snippet of the other post with their title to your blog, so your readers would know what it was about and click on it to read the person’s post on their site. It worked so well! It was so simple. It did so many functions automatically.
So of course WordPress screwed with it, changed it, and made it harder. They made it the same as their “press this” button. Now you get a new window with a snippet in the body box, you need to add a title, add your comment, and more stuff. Then add your comment to the original post! Just how in the many layers of hell that WordPress inhabits makes this an improvement? It is just making the reblog button the same as the press this button, which people were not using. Hugs
I was wondering if anyone would ever figure that hack out ~ it’s the only way to get around comments being turned off. You’re the only one, 17 years on WordPress, 15 comments off
Yeah, we got trouble, right here in River City
