Anonymous asked: All of the links in the box to the upper left link (for me) to Real Dobby's tumblr, as well as (ironically) the text of the post complaining about said links. I fully support the redesign, however... the platform doesn't change the wonderful content, after all!

giania asked: After seeing the "boo this is ugly I hate it" question I figured you should know: the site in chromehas some layout issues & a couple incorrect links on the top left. I screencapped but I can't link to it here apparently. Contact me & I'll send it to you I guess? If you don't have the ability to ask Dobby for fixes, get ahold of me & I may be able to help. I...

Anonymous asked: After the move to Tumblr, everything's gone downhill, from content to site design. This is not really a question, but I suggest moving back to the old format. I'm especially concerned about the latest redesign, with links everywhere leading to this Real Dobby dude's blog. He designed the new (crappy) theme, but I think the watermark is just enough.

Rap Industry Fan Fiction: Rick Ross makes crack... →
rapindustryfanfiction: Rick Ross stands in front of the stove listening to a fly beat its wings against the window. He spits at the fly. He misses.  A concentric red glow and a fine white dust fills the room. Rick Ross stares vacantly into a vortex of dark energy, like a black hole sort of. He resents the fact that his roommates left the stove on. Rick Ross walks into the living room to...

Rap Industry Fan Fiction: T-Pain reveals his... →
rapindustryfanfiction: T-Pain opened the cupboard. He ran a finger across the surface. A stain of dust covered his fingertip. He moved aside a half-eaten box of Honey Nut Cheerios, a jar of jalapeño peppers, several empty cans of whipped cream, and half-forgotten packets of English Breakfast Tea before he discovered he was out of pancake mix. He put his finger to his ear, concentrated,...

merlinhoot asked: why not change your twitter bio to show this site?

Anonymous asked: Hello, Ectomo writers! Will you ever add back the comment box for each article, and/or several of the other features and visual stuffs you used to have? Though I like the new site, I feel the site has lost some of its visual distinctness along with many other features... It feels very typical-bloggish, structure wise.

What If →
all of the world’s problems, all of the suffering which humanity is currently facing, what if that all could be eliminated by just one person actually paying for their version of winrar? The window came up telling you that it wasn’t free, right? But still, you haven’t paid for it. Nobody has paid for it. You may be able to single-handedly solve the worldwide financial crisis by completing the...

Bear with us through continuing DNS issues!
DNS and redirects are tricky, and our domain registrar (edit: to be clear, NOT our host.  Our host is a wonderful person, and a volunteer) has been less than helpful.  John Brownlee and I are working feverishly with GoDaddy and Tumblr to get our old domain pointed at the new Tumblr address, and in the confusion, even clicking on http://ectoplasmosis.tumblr.com will route you to ectomo.com, which...
