A list of interesting things I found on the internet, posted when I’ve got 7 of them. Sometimes themed, often not.
1️⃣ This might be the fastest and easiest dollar I’ve ever spent. This browser extension replaces images of Trump and Musk with kittens. [🔗 apps.apple.com] (Via Lou Plummer)
2️⃣ If the words “HomeStar Runner” mean anything to you, this video is going to make you very happy. [🔗 homestarrunner.com]
3️⃣ If you’re a Harry Potter fan, this zine will probably make you sad. But it resonated with me, a superfan who has nevertheless been disgusted by JKR’s behavior toward trans folks and now feels conflicted about enjoying the series itself. [🔗 redgoldsparkspress.com]
4️⃣ A folding e-reader? Now we’re talking! [🔗 theverge.com]
5️⃣ Niléane’s roundup of playful Mac apps is so fun! [🔗 macstories.net]
6️⃣ David Sparks showed off Perplexity’s new voice assistant app. It’s pretty wild how good they made it hooking into Apple’s native frameworks and does make Siri look extra bad. [🔗 macsparky.com]
7️⃣ YEAH TOAST! My buddy reminded me of this song that has rattling around in the back of my head for half my life. Love it. [▶️ youtube.com]
