Looking for the GF of your dreams? Look no further! @gf_generator posts one kawaii cartoon GF daily. How does it work? @gf_generator is essentially a paper doll gone digital, randomly assembling each funky GF from a pool of pre-drawn colorable/texturable components. Not finding a match among any of the GFs on @gf_generator? Then roll your own over on the GF_Generator game.

What citizen of the digital world hasn’t taken a certain thrill from watching a progress bar tick forward? @POTUSProgress tracks the advancement of the U.S. president’s current term a creeping half percent at a time. Celebrate, or mourn, as you will.
The Sublime

@poem_exe creates haiku-esque poems by remixing English translations of the writing of Kobayashi Issa. The intoxicating magic of @poem_exe is how, despite their brevity, the poems it creates feels so laden with potential meaning—with interpretations simultaneously universal and deeply personal.
