Pardon My Death

It’s just a roundabout path to the option.
PITA, but at least the site can continue to function.
A while back, I set up a CIDU Facebook account in the event we ever needed an emergency home.
I think we’re there: maybe I’ll find a way to upload images to WordPress, or maybe I’ll be able to move to a new service, but for now we’re down. And WordPress, like many companies, is using COVID as an excuse to virtually eliminate customer support.
There are eighteen posts already queued, and they should go live as scheduled. Other than that… Facebook might not be a good alternative for a lot of people — it isn’t a good alternative for me — but for now it’s what we have.
I posted a new CIDU to the page (https://www.facebook.com/Comics-I-Dont-Understand-902130259961463/): let’s see how that works.

but not add images.
Which means my fears were well founded: once this new interface becomes mandatory (with no warning), it’s essentially Comicgeddon.
Yes, I know that’s not the correct quote.
WordPress has changed the the interface to “block format” or some such nonsense, and I have no idea how to either change it back (if that’s indeed possible) or to add a !@#$ graphic to a post.
I’m pretty sure nobody asked for this.
Saturday’s post is already queued, and so is Monday’s. Beyond that, I haven’t a clue.
It looks like there might be an option to do this entirely in HTML, which will at least allow the site to function, albeit with a lot more work
