Yep. Totally understand why they're doing it. Bummed nonetheless.

Yes, I started playing with it 3 years ago, and stopped after 14 posts, including this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this and this.

When I went to check on it, this and this were among the most recent postings. (WTFMatt?) Sadly, the Internet hates having more than one entity per niche, and once Tumblr took off, mlkshk was doomed. It's like a supermarket where they only have one brand of everything - and I don't mean Trader Joe's private labels, I mean a Vons/Safeway if all the cookies were Nabisco and all the cheese was Kraft.

Yeah, it's really too bad. Somehow all those diverse, strange, silly pictures made me happy.

That's what I hate about the internet/technology -- it's always changing on you.
