Hi! I thought you might want to know; your tumblr posts seem to redirect to [User's Dashboard, post off to the right], even when directly linked to, or permalink-clicked. I had an "It's just my browser add-ons & your theme interacting badly" theory, but now a friend has experienced it too, that seems less likely. (both using Firefox) I'd give an example (Your recent Thor dream), but our Benevolent Overlords do not wish me to link things here, and are quite thorough about stopping attempts.
Oh, I really am sorry about this. I am afraid that it is working as intended. My tumblr is set so that it’s only viewable for people who are logged into tumblr, a privacy setting I maintain on purpose. Tumblr in its infinite wisdom has intepreted this as meaning that my entire tumblr can only be viewed on your own dash. Side effects include:
My blog can only be viewed on your dash.
I cannot do “readmore” links (i.e. those links that shorten a reblogged post, or a post on your dash, that you can click through to see the full post on the user’s tumblr.) If I do a readmore cut, it will create an Infinite Loop and you (the reader) cannot see anything behind the cut.
My blog has no theme.
I can’t have an “about me” or other additional informational pages.
My tags usually don’t work on desktop (although they work on mobile.)
You can’t easily link to my posts.
Statcounter and other useful tools find it all very upsetting.
If you try to link a friend to elodieunderglass.tumblr.com/hereisacoolpostElodiedid then it does nothing! nothing happens.
You can’t see dates indicating when I posted anything.
There is no archive.
You can’t search.
You can’t do truly “anon” asks, as you have to be logged into a tumblr account to ask me something, and must be careful to press the “anon” button.
It is Invisible to the Googles.
Everything is transient, impermanent and unhelpful.
Reading this blog is cryptic and confusing and an ultimately futile experience, rather like trying to seriously and meaningfully discuss the impact of the Dow fluctuations with a distracted fairy who doesn’t like you very much.
This is all working exactly as intended. Well, most of it.
