Mike Sixel Old-Timey Member Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 What are your (non-sports) go to websites? fivethirtyeight is number 1 for me, now that Grantland is gone. Great in-depth analysis of politics, science, sports, and culture. The article on p scores, you aren't going to find many places..... ENWorld used to be in the top, but I don't play D&D as much anymore..... justinguitar.com, my goto site for teaching myself guitar, though andyguitar is also very good PASTE magazine for boardgame and beer articles meadowparty (keith law's site, mostly for games and food and book reviews)
gunnarthor Old-Timey Member Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 I waste a lot of time on facebook and cnn.com. Politico and the Washington Post for politics.
Mike Sixel Old-Timey Member Posted March 7, 2016 Author Posted March 7, 2016 Ha, somehow I don't think of FB as a website, but yes, lots there also.

Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 ShaggyTexas.com ... Blog that's got a similar set-up to TD. A section for TX sports (which I ignore completely) but other sections for restaurants/food, music shows, books, movies/TV, video games, and sharing drunk stories.. Profanity is allowed on that site as a forewarning if you check it out. I'm also one of those weirdos that uses Bing... Why not earn Amazon gift cards for work related searches? And they have a news feed of the top articles of the day that is good for a click or 2 from me. supercook.com is pretty cool too. Basically you input what you have in the refrigerator/pantry, and it comes up with recipes that work for what you have. As a guy who runs out of dinner ideas easily, it works out well. I use social media less and less every day, but I guess I can still say Twitter and Facebook.
formerly33 Verified Member Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Similar for me, but npr instead of cnn and add nyt.Same here ... though I've been trying to cut back on fb so mostly I just go on it for news ... it's sort of a gratifying experience because I get to waste time on fb (it'd be easier to just type out npr.org) without actually feeling like I'm wasting time. That, and ravelry.com, a knitting website I'm part of. Yeah, I knit. It's not uncool. I'm making a lace scarf right now ... it's supposed to look like tiger eyes, but it reminded me more of Rothbart from Swan Lake, so I'm calling mine Odile - not that I'm going to affectionately call it by its name the way I call my flute Bellamy, but every project needs a name. It's going to be much lacier after I block it; I shared the link to the pattern page since the photo of mine is somewhat deceptive.

Hrbowski Verified Member Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 My favorites would be ebird.org and moumn.org for ornithological news, Politico for politics, and I also frequent http://tch15.medici.tv/en/performances/cello/replay/.
Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Pornhub. Great content there.Thanks for the suggestion! I didn't realize that site had so many avenues... There's videos relating to teachers and students, how to pay a pizza delivery person if you don't have money, and fun activities to do on a bus!
Squirrel Community Moderator Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 This could get ugly...fast.Um, yeah ... this was SFW sites and not NSFW sites. Let's stick to topic here.
Badsmerf Verified Member Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Ooooo, i read it as single white female web sites.
