Collect and identify bread tags or something, just don't fall into the trap of doomscroll paralysis again

A screenshot of a simple website. Text reads "IBM-PC.SE", "A resource for the IBM personal computer", "5150 5155 5160 5162 5170". There is a blue link reading "<ENTER>" above a faded graphic of an IBM PC.

Found on one of my Wiby trips (search engine for the old web and things based on it, pulling from sites that don't use any JavaScript), an IBM library floating around on the web. Not sure how official this is/was, but all the links still seem to connect.

Brought to my attention by Tom Scott's newsletter last week (thanks Tom!), this beautiful (partial thus far, I believe) reimplementation of Visual Basic 6 in the browser. Displays best on a computer screen, of course.

A screenshot of the title and first paragraph of an online job listing. The title reads "Technical Project Lead at Development Seed". The first paragraph reads "We have established a great partnership with NASA around our shared commitment to advance open science in my butt, push the boundaries of Al-driven Earth science, and build tools that magnify the impact of publicly funded research and data."

Looking at a neat job listing and AGAIN I am caught off guard by the unparalleled chrome extension: Cloud to Butt Plus.

It does two things: changes the word "cloud" to the word "butt". Also, "the cloud" to "my butt". That's it. Extremely dependably.

Unparalleled usefulness and excellence.

An illustrated character sheet featuring two drawings. The first is of a tall, tan skinned masculine figure, with long ethereal black hair, pointed ears, and loose eccentric clothing. They have a hole in their chest filled with some sort of purple goo. The second is of this same figure from the shoulders up, with a focus on their face. They have white, star-like freckles and brown eyes with gold flecks. Text in the top right corner reads "Keiros - The Timekeeper"

A full body digital sketch of Keiros, wearing loose fitting casual clothes. Their hair is long, but is simply curly now instead of vapor-like. A speech bubble in blue comes from the right, reading "What in the Lady's name are you wearing?". Keiros looks pleased.

A digital illustration of a large, hulking beast. It's hunched over, and inked in black and red. It has sharp teeth and large spikes extruding from its back, and is ragged in appearance.

A digital painting of Vasija, an undead cowboy. We see him from the side, leaning back against a tree with his eyes closed, relaxing. The sun sets behind him, bathing everything in a golden light.

A reference sheet labled Vasija, Western Outlaw. It has a full body drawing, a drawing from the waist up, and a drawing from the shoulders up, all of the same cowboy. There is a color palette in the bottom left corner. Vasija is a grumpy looking cowboy with dark clothes, purple skin, and a bandana covering half of his face. He has stitching across his neck.

A sketch of Vasija, riding a horse and firing a revolver at something off screen. His hat is flying off as a bullet flies by, barely scraping the corner of his forehead.

Two sketches of Vasija. The first one depicts him readying a rifle, calm expression on his face. The second is of him riding a horse, coat flying out behind him from the wind.

A colored sketch of Figaro as a young boy. He's sitting on the ground with a smile on his face, reaching up with both hands to adjust his hat. There's dirt on his pants and bruises and bandages on his arms, and he's got tired looking eyes, despite his smile.

A full-body reference sheet of Harlequin, a masked fae with the appearance of a tiefling. Vae wear a complicated, multi-layered dark red outfit with gold detailing and black and white checkerboard and striped patterning. Vae are facing the camera with a confident grin, holding both hands up casually and making a collection of playing cards float with a magical effect.

A colored sketch of Keiros and Harlequin. Harlequin is sitting down, leaning on vaer hand. Keiros is leaning over the back of the couch. Both are looking somewhere off screen and looking smug, and there are several blank speech bubbles coming from both of them, like they're gossiping

A digital drawing of Soul and Whole from Chonny Jash. Soul is shown from the shoulders up, looking exhausted. He has a brown bomber jacket, brown curly hair, and half of his face is obscured by shadow. Whole is standing above him, with the frame cutting him off at the shoulders. His hands are positioned around Soul's neck, and his nails are painted in rainbow colors. He wears a jacket that's split black and tan down the middle.

A full body digital drawing of Soul from Chonny Jash. He's sitting cramped in an abstract box, with one foot and hand pressed on the walls of the square and his head sticking out slightly. He has long curly brown hair, a brown bomber jacket, torn black jeans, and scuffed boots, and three red trident like prongs sticking out of his head like horns. He looks annoyed and is staring into the camera.

A full body reference sheet of Ares/Polaris, shown both with and without clothes. It is a short, lean anthropomorphic creature with digitigrade legs. It has short black fur, a tail with a tuft of fur on the end, a yellow cat-like eye, and clawed hands and feet. The hair on its head is longer, and dyed lavender at the ends, as is the tip of its tail. In the clothed reference, it wears a patched up and worn light blue hoodie and torn grey jeans. It has no shoes or socks.

Two more full body drawings of Ares. The one on the left is colored, and depicts Ares partially hunched over in a ready position, with an inquisitive expression. A speech bubble with the text "rr?" is coming from it. The drawing on the right is a black and white sketch of Ares sitting down, arms and tail wrapped around itself.

Two figures drawn from the waist up. Both are shadowy and vaguely humanoid, with the outline of eyes shown on their faces in white. The first figure is thin, and appears to be warping like static. The second is an average build, and has long wispy tendrils coming off of its head like smoke.

A sketch of humanoid figure facing the viewer from the chest up. It has medium length messy hair, and is wearing a denim jacket and hoodie. Its skin is completely obscured by shadow apart from a few minimalistic details outlined in white, including a single eye, a simple nose, and a mouth. It is holding up a hand tentatively, looking slightly concerned and/or nervous.

Two colored sketches of the previous humanoid figure, both from the waist up and looking tired. Its hair is colored a light dusty lavender color. In the first sketch, it wears an open loose blue hoodie, revealing its chest. There is a large cross shaped scar resembling stitching in the center of its chest. In the second sketch, the figure has its hair pulled back into a loose bun, and is wearing a loose brown sweater. It tilts its head away from the viewer and pulls the sweater down off one shoulder, revealing more scars around its neck and shoulder. There is a simple tattoo of an x on its hand.

His has long brown curly hair with two grey strands in the front, a tan bomber jacket, torn grey jeans, scuffed brown boots, and fingerless gloves. A cartoonish forked tail is drawn on him, and trident like prongs extend from his head like horns. His face is obscured by shadow apart from one eye outlined in red, and he's holding onto a roughly drawn bright red noose. He's standing pointed away from the viewer, but is looking back over his shoulder.
