I cannot recommend you enough to install the Wikipedia app on your devices and use it like you would any search engine. Nowadays they even have tabs so you can open many articles at once.

And, if you can, please donate to the foundation. It has survived the internet enshittification that way.

Alex says "i'm going to take a selfie under harsh overhead lighting." She continues with resolute determination "I'm also gonna use a reeeeeal unflattering focal length." The selfie renders a predictably monstrous portrait. Alex looks at it and exclaims "OH GOD! I objectively look like this!"

Two-panel screenshot from the Simpsons - on the top panel is a bus annoyedly saying "Don't make me tap the sign." The bottom panel is the bus driver tapping a sign that reads "Do not post anything on social media that can be interpreted as an actionable threat."

earthbound is one of those overplayed, overhyped and oversaturated classics that you play and realise it's actually underrated

I'm not a historian but my analysis is it's "Not good" when a government constantly commits crimes and tells the legislature, courts, and general public "What are you gonna do about it"

Microsoft Turning windows into an AI slop unusable dogshit, meanwhile the alternative is Linux that also doesn't work with a ton of programs

Being a person that actually enjoys using a computer is suffering

Here is a Reddit threat that explains how to disable Copilot in Windows, which I've just followed:

Very unimpressed with all of the games on Steam saying things like "we used AI to help our ideas come to life but then we did the rest ourselves please understand 🥺". I understand that you can eat shit, find a way to do it that doesn't steal from others and destroy the god damned environment bitch

I feel like these pics need to be preserved for future generations

2012 vs 2025

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

Side eyeing the Etsy witches.

They just gave $1 billion to the guy who produced the Borderlands movie.

This is a money laundering scheme isn't it?
