I thought it was "And now for something completely different"

BTW, IFC is showing some episodes of flying circus, but they have cut out bits and bobs from sketches to jam in more commercials

Are they Gatorade commercials?

Arlo, most of your pictures in various topics do not show up.

Whatever source you are getting your pics from generally is noticing that they are appearing in a BB and blocking them.  Some image sources are like that.

Do the images show up for you when you look at your past posts?

They do. Sources run from FB to YouTube in this thread.

Interesting.  I'm not seeing the images in the following post, as one example.

I guess it is somehow on my end.  I wonder if the source is filtering based on destination IP.  I'm on a major carrier (Xfinity).

Hmm.  Shows up on my phone running through wifi, so isnt isp related.  Maybe my antivirus software or some other settings. Ill have to troubleshoot it.

Having been certified 20 years ago (but not ever actively employed in the industry) I've found the constant changes Microsoft makes to the administration of its browsers frustrating. Might have contributed to my stroke.  :O

OK, found it.

It is a setting in Firefox that doesn't trust the links in Arlo's posts.  It's the setting that blocks "social media trackers, cross-site tracking cookies, tracking content, fingerprinters", etc.

Better safe than sorry. I rarely post anything significant anymore (as if I ever did).  :D

The original "Jolly Rogers" squadron were an irreverent bunch, which Arlo epitomizes.  We in the virtual VF-17 Squad are proud to claim him as one of our own.
