At the very least, Google needs to be humbled. Then again, we have to be ready to let go of some conveniences to regain user control.

YouTube video by Charlynne Valyxz Actually good YouTube alternatives

Seeing how Google doesn't have any incentive to respect data privacy and YouTube is looking to rollout AI garbage soon, alternatives would be nice to see in the near future.
Funny how YouTube recommended this video. Nitpicks aside, info is sound and value.

Column: The Stratford Festival of theater rediscovers a beating Canadian heart This summer’s slate includes “Annie,” a very Canadian “Anne of Green Gables,” the thought-provoking “Forgiveness” and a very moving “Winter’s T…

How's this for a boost, Canada? From the Chicago Tribune's chief theatre critic, Chris Jones: "Canadian theater, and Canadians in general, are doing better than their neighbors to the south at focusing on the core values that hold the nation together."

Haider writes articles with arguments so bad they hurt, like the "ugly side" of Dutch cycling: cyclists make up an astonishing 40% of road deaths in the Netherlands.

Zero context about how this compares to how much Dutch people bike, or how the health benefits of cycling compare to the risks.

01: There is a woman facing you with a confident expression. She has blond hair, messy twin pigtails, a small angel wing coming off the right side of her head, and a devil horn coming off the left. She has a big angel wing coming off the left side of her back, and a devil wing coming off the right. Her right eye is teal and has an 'X' pattern on the pupil, whereas her right eye is indigo and has a circle pattern on the pupil. She wears a pink neckerchief, and a tight sleeveless top that's blue on the top half and dark purple on the bottom. She also has disconnected sleeves, so her shoulders are still visible. She says "HEY!! It's ME, you're OLD OC. Haven't drawn ME in a while, HAVE YA'?" 02: She puts up her hands in front of her, as if you say 'stop it'. She has big, robotic hands. She says "No no, IT'S OKAY! Let's be real, my design is pretty amateurish HAHA" 03: She turns a bit to the side, and adopts a more sympathetic expression, but keeps looking you in the eyes. She says "But I want you to know that I've been there all this time. I've watched you grow. And you've grown SO much." 04: Closeup of her face as her confident expression returns. She tilts her head and gives you a wink. "Proud of ya', kid."

Well this is disappointing

Every time some evangelical group goes after video games again, I think way back to the time Fox News tried to get Mass Effect banned for nudity and "graphic sex"

Geoff Keighley was there it was a whole thing! lmao

Apparently, a repost of this did numbers on TikTok?

This is the one I made specifically for TikTok, and frankly, it has a better ending than the original.

PEN America claims to support free speech, but fired me for speaking about Palestine The free speech organization PEN America fired me three days after I published an article about how they investigated me for sharing an article critical of Zionism. My termination is a sad reflection ...

READ: PEN America says it defends free speech. But when one of their own staffers spoke up for Palestine, they fired her.

Kori Davis exposes how PEN weaponized “anti-discrimination” to silence anti-Zionist speech, while Gaza is being starved to death. mondoweiss.net/2025/08/pen-...

Have you seen this petition yet? YouTube - SAY NO TO FLAWED AGE VERIFICATIONS!

The community needs to win this! YouTube has lost the plot a while back.
If we can make the executives think twice about doing this, then for what it's worth, we can see a marginally better YouTube.

I just filled out the survey and it does in fact ask about game key cards. I selected definitely would not buy every time it asked about them. Y’all should do the same.

Nintendo released a survey asking for feedback on physical and digital games.

This is definitely the chance to make your voice heard about Switch 2 Game Key Cards.
