I cannot add media or links to my blog.

I cannot add media or links, add tags, or create a new category when creating a post. Apparently all I can do is write text.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Apparently IE users are having this issue. Can you use another browser? If you’re in Compatibility mode, can you disable it?

Howdy,
We’re working an issue that’s impacting folks using Internet Explorer 9.0. While we’re getting this fixed, would it be possible to either upgrade to IE 10 or to use Firefox or Chrome?
We’ll post an update at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/dashboard-issues-on-internet-explorer-9?replies=1
Thanks for your patience!

Thanks for your patience. We’ve fixed up the issue, so while we encourage you to use Internet Explorer 10 or the latest versions of Firefox, Chrome, or Safari, IE 9 works as expected again.
Cheers!
