I’m sharing this because it’s fun, and can be a nice diversion from all the doomscrolling. There are lots of puzzles and random digital knick knacks. Enjoy!

Here’s the first random site I got: alwaysjudgeabookbyitscover.com
Silly.
I love it.
you might enjoy paperback paradise
You might also enjoy a selection from Hark, a Vagrant.
Thank you
Ahhh, this reminds me how much I miss StumbleUpon.
It was a fun find, and I love the variety. Some of the sites are dumb fun. Some are games and puzzles. Others are just something completely different.
You might be too young. They’re referring to a service called StumbleUpon that did almost exactly what you posted here.

Sad times. Stumble upon was great!
That website was a gem. They fucking ruined it.
StumbleUpon was the best. I do miss it.
Stumbleupon was how I found Reddit !
It was great, the internet was new and people just had fun with it.
Today will be another productive day!
Thanks for the link. Not a bad distraction! I hope there’s a large catalog in case I want to treat it like the random Stumble button of yore (which I must have hit hundreds of times at least).
Per day … Right?
Per hour? It’s all a blur to me at this point.

🤔
What does that mean?
This is a screenshot from uBlock Origin, an ad-blocker for browsers. Red means that something is in a block list. There is a lot of red, which means this website uses a lot of stuff that tracks the user or serves ads.
That being said, I’ve seen much worse.
Pointlesssites.com
My first result: puginarug.com
It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out what a “Pugina” was, should have just clicked the link
The only website you need is zombo.com
Is this intended?

Unfortunately not, the site has been having some problems today. It should run a loop of this.
Are you suggesting that it’s not useless?
I miss StumbleUpon for this very reason
That’s the first thing I thought about. Such a good nugget.
Here’s another fun one.
Everything here looks very similar to Lisp programming used to create data structures that can look like emojis.
