Yeah but I'm fine with letting the market take its course. I found a link which I thought had some interesting gifs. So distractify filled my need in this instance and I used it. I'll probably never go back, but I will if they start producing interesting content with regularity and I happen to see it.

My problem is that they're driving out everything else. This is now the only shit I see on Facebook. So yeah - the market is taking its course, and it's course is the death of the Internet.

You can control what you see on facebook, yo. Anyway distractify &c. were inevitable. Just deal with as can be dealt.

PS, where are all the bl00sreviews?

How do you block the bullshit websites without blocking people? 'cuz I'd be into that.

so the bl00's reviews were for books that were recommended by Hubski. And I'm about ready to roll into Godel Escher Bach but I need to get through another Kindle book first. And I spent a shit ton of time on Piketty, which wasn't a part of the discussion, and rather than start the Poisonwood Bible I started a 5 hour [trifle.](.com/Escape-Camp-14-Remarkable-Odyssey/dp/0143122916)

I'm also knee-deep in one of my shows at the moment. These three months I make about 60% of my yearly earnings.

Like this.

That should do it, though I haven't tried myself.

That was super-effective! Since I only ever see Facebook when I run out of phone Internet, I never thought to check the browser! yay!

What 8bit said, yeah -- anyway those are good reasons. GEB I'll be interested to hear from you on. Piketty I have slotted for September.

Extremely skeptical of Poisonwood Bible because we read it in 7th grade or so.

My wife was not a fan. We'll see.
