Tom Scott's Weekly Newsletter is a general weekly online newsletter run by British presenter Tom Scott! Though partly intended to promote his own contents on YouTube and Nebula, a major focus of the newsletter is compiling articles and video content from the Internet that he's found interesting the past week! If you want a more regular dose of online media that cannot be easily given and as regularly in this webpage since I'm using a static categorical format for this page, I highly suggest Tom Scott's Weekly Newsletter!
Yerf Historical Archive is an archive of materials uploaded to the online furry art gallery Yerf between 1996 to 2004! the archive contains 50,000, or 4.5GB of artworks made by hundreds of artists who were part of this community in those years, overall being a very good display of furry art in those years, across many styles!
NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day Archive is the archive for NASA's web project of posting one astronomy-related photo per day, run continuously since 1994! This is the full listing of the archive, and since it represents and links for 30+ years of content MODERATE LAG WARNING OPEN OPENING + certain versions of Chrome have issues crashing when fetching links from the list (the list itself is text-only so dw about cache or image thumbnails)! otherwise, very amazing and longrunning piece of the Internet!

The Simulator is a very old but very interesting online 'life simulator' from 1997!! despite its low fidelity nature (and even more low fidelity visuals), it's still very interesting to see even despite the period and the capacity of the Internet at the time to see something so casual and even branching?? at a time when less than 1/6 of the world had access to the Internet and much of constructive creativity was extremely limited (goodness forbid less than 5 years prior not a single browser could even display images)
Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music is a very opinionated but very well made general guide to electronic music between much of the 20th century to circa 2019! it does not include smaller scenes such as Internet genres but despite such still contains a very great amount of underground material to look through! containing over 1,000 songs accessible via 2-minute previews ranging several genres and types and varieties of electronic music (and even examples of electronica in less exclusive genres, such as Rap), it's an extremely good way to find out what your taste is, expand your taste, and or find a starting point within a genre to branch out from and explore more of it outside of the Guide!
CARI - Consumer Aesthetics Research Institute is a website dedicated to naming and categorizing most consumer aesthetics of the last half-century! you probably know this website from the fact that CARI co-founder Sofi Xian was who coined the term frutiger aero, but its resources and examples go much deeper than that! aesthetics to note, from me, include Vectorheart; Silicon Dreams; Dollar Store Vernacular; Deco-luxe; Groovival; and more!

Crittervision is one of my favorite online wildlife cams!! It and its multiple angles are very consistently relaxing while also being very active! in terms of what animals you should expect, at night expect the likes of raccoons, opposums, foxes, armadillos, mice and more to arrive to the feeder; whereas in the day, weeell i actually dont tap in the daytime nearly as much as at night BUT expect many different birds, squirrels, and more! unique animals also show up sometimes, but thats for you to look into C:
