The UK had a weird moral panic about ninjas in the 80's and 90's (I'm pretty sure it was a racist dog whistle) and the current government seems to think it's wortwhile appealing to people's nostalgia for it.

You can embed shorts, but it takes a workaround. Shorts are actually just normal vids, but their urls are formatted differently. So the forum can't recognize them as youtube videos, because the software its built on was never updated to.

If you put the video id, in this case _TG4-CfiSko, between [ media=youtube ] [ /media ] tags without the spaces, it embeds.



Same with twitter posts. Replace x.com with twitter.com, and it embeds again.

Sorry, I don't. Tumbl is not on the list of approved sites, so I don't think you can.
