I have had a busy summer. However, the antics of the guy in the white house still were heard about even while camping. So, I am looking for suggestions for alternate search engines & street driving apps to replace #google since they are lockstep following orders

In case anyone missed my little X-Files point and click daydream
Mulder, Scully, Skinner, and the Lone Gunmen, all drawn in a cartoony style.A hallway of an institute or something like that, with eldritch green light pouring in through a far window.A car crests a hill at night. A figure with a shovel stands by the roadside.My wife and I are watching a little bit of The X-Files again and I've been doodling
along.

Imagine if you will: a five act point-and-click where you switch between Mulder and Scully depending on what kind of clues and puzzles you're working with. The Lone Gunmen get their own episode during Act 4 but they all move together like a single character. Tone is 70% comedy 30% paranormal horror.

Scully: "Mulder, you can't combine those."
Mulder, trying to tie a stick of dynamite to a taxidermied pheasant using half a shoelace: "Ancient Roman augurs read omens into the flight paths of birds all the time, Scully."

Scully: LOOK AT Enormous Rotating Saucer Hovering Over the Town
Scully: "That's the second biggest weather balloon I've ever seen."

Scully: LOOKAT Fox Mulder's Docs Folder
OPEN Fox Mulder's Docs Folder
Scully: "Ah."
Mulder: "I get those for the articles."
Scully: "Yeah who doesn't love a juicy article."

Mulder LOOK AT Mysterious Skull
Mulder: "Seen this, Scully?"
Scully: "Artificial cranial deformation has been attested in numerous cultures,
Mulder. The practice results in elongated skulls and flattened foreheads."
Mulder: "Does it make the bones glow green?"

Important to understand the roots of certain Christian denominations and movements and how these concepts are rebranded today. religionnews.com/2026/07/08/i...

I was raised as Christian pronatalist. The movement is white supremacist.
(RNS) — Yesterday's Quiverfull movement has been rebranded as today's pronatalist movement, and they're both rooted in the same white Christian patriarchal fears.

Obama: I am not immune to anger or doubt. But I do know this when we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing that voting matters… we open the door to the most ruthless or the most careless, or the most fearful among us who see some groups and some people as more equal than others

To the extent SCOTUS is articulating a principle (other than letting the GOP have its way in election cases), it's: a state can do whatever it wants at the last minute to change the rules of an election, & courts can do nothing about it — even with evidence of intentional discrimination.

SCOTUS will allow Alabama to use a congressional map that a lower court found intentionally discriminated against Black voters. A Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places it at odds with democracy itself. This is Chief Justice John Roberts’ legacy.

There is no clearer case for the necessity of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 than how quickly southern states moved to eliminate Black-majority districts and dilute Black power after SCOTUS eroded Section 2. SCOTUS’s reasoning was immediately disproven by reality.
