Lap Fold 💻
My name is Nate Ribbons or how my parents call me 'Nathaniel'. Today I'm gonna answer some questions, let's see.
How do you do your signature pose? Bruh, that's inhuman!
Well, what do you know, I'm an elf! Just kidding, I'm human, those are just ear mods. Well, how do you make yourself stretchy? I guess you gotta just stretch A LOT and enjoy every moment of it!
I guess I was lucky to start early because my mom Erika is a contortionist.
When do you have the time to play so many video games? I thought you'd be training all day!
I am, I just play all my games in a backfold! See, mom is a huge trickster and I always had to bend over backwards just to get anything I wanted. When I was 6 she gave me my first laptop as a reward for folding my back completely in half for the first time.
I had to pin my backfold because my brother Danny would never let me get on his lap for very long: "Get your own backfold, elf!" But then I made him swallow those words because I sweated myself to get such a perfect backfold that I won a better lap than his!
Oh boy, I started spending so much time on that, mom had to come up with something. So she said I was only allowed to use my lap from a backfold and she constantly checked on me.
Over the years playing video games while having my body snailed up became my favorite part of the day. Usually after my contortion training I spend about 2-3 hours playing my video games while having my body stretched to the max but that actually looks extreme while it feels very relaxing for me.
Can you still feel your lower half while bent like that? Doesn't that cause damage to your spinal cord?
Yeah, I don't know why my doc and even my mom always asks if I feel numb in my toes but I feel perfect, I am actually super sensitive all over! And if you try to tickle my soles, I will kick you! I don't know why everyone in the house is trying to tickle me all the time just because I look cute!!
Do you also stretch your ears to make them so long?
Yes, when I'm at my lap, Danny comes behind me and pulls on my ears, all the way until my head touches the floor! I can totally feel the back of my head against my own lower belly, it's really trippy! No, they are actually normal ears with mods, they don't get longer from stretching.
Don't you feel like a piece of dough during the day? Doesn't your extreme flexibility make it more complicated to keep straight during something normal like walking or jogging?
No, it doesn't feel like that, but it does feel so loose and soft that I feel like I can do anything, but not like dough. But then, mom always makes me practice yoga for at least an hour a day and we hold some complex poses for muscle strength, so maybe she had already thought of that...
That's all, I hope this answers your questions guys! Just remember to take anything you enjoy doing for hours, turn it into a contortion training and you'll be ahead of yourself in no time...hehehe.

All other upgrades are for the better!
Tested on desktop
1) While links on images works fine links in bottom bar "to next pages" sometime do not work in firefox and opera, can't be clicked
1b) Big one - when trying to write comment after each keyboard push screen "center" itself in that way, that very bottom of screen is on line where you are writing
2) On main page (list of images) distance (margin) between thumbnails is now too small, in old version each thumbnail stood out

3) On image detail align is no longer centered, therefore on bigger widescreen monitor I must turn my head to right while reading longer texts (this is probably 1 thing I won't get used to :-(( ).

4) Font of story is no longer black and seems little blurry now

5) Little space on very top (and bottom) of page before image and story was good touch, I think you wanted to make your images bigger on smaller screens which seems like good call but on big monitor it looks bit weird

6) Comment section, in old version each comment had unique border pattern, it looked oldschool, but somehow liked that personalizing feature, in new version borders are almost all the same.

7) Comment section, reaction comments are placed above original comment and are lacking your snail signature making it for new visitors very confusing who is even talking with who or what was first comment.

8) Comment section, above points apply to comment form also + darker background under comments seemed better, but that is just and only my personal taste
9) New comments, variable size of comment "bubbles" looks now worse in cases when comment is only 1-2 lines long, because image thumbnail is now too cropped and it looks worse combined with smaller top bottom indents
10) Visitor can still read comments under explicit images
Shifty
1) I have no idea why it's unclickable, so I just restored the way it worked in the old version, hope that fixed it
1b) Hope this is also fixed now, though again I have no idea why it wasn't working before, but I added some tweaks
2-8) Should be all fixed
9) The cropping of thumbnails was intentional, I wanted to stretch the thumbnail to the height of comment+reply, so just wait for the reply to appear and it will be higher!
10) Couldn't confirm that, to me explicit posts show "Locked post" in safe mode
Thanks a lot for testing it, now it indeed looks better after these improvements! 😊
1) works now
2) Now it does work in opera, but in my niche browser based on firefox it still glitches .-/ giving right column super big height after each keystroke.
Workaround for me might be just write text elsewhere and then just insert if bug is too hard to find.
2-9) looks better than good now
Last very minor detail I see is "Home, Back" buttons are on desktop now about 20 pixels more toward bottom than in old version.
+I was not able to post even on old site comments for some time today
Will let you know If something else pops up.
