Best place for long form history and science content with audio versions that is criminally underrated.

MetaFilter! It's an old-school text-only community blog that's been around since 1999. I love the variety and depth of posts on the front page, and the AskMetaFilter Q+A section is super useful.

Isitnormal.com
This website used to be pretty good/interesting about 15 years ago. It slowly lost it's appeal for me, however, due to various reasons. It was a closely guarded secret for quite a long time for me too.
OG movie script/screenplay database.
Dudes been running this place since 95, which is doubly impressive that he never got popped for copyright shit. There was a pretty crazy stretch where he was releasing scripts before they were even produced. Like I got to read the actual screenplays for flicks like Intolerable Cruelty, Lost Highway (movie makes more sense as a screenplay, btw) and even Beavis and Butthead Do America before they even hit the theaters.
Very niche, but if you ever need to decode a simple oldschool encrypted/encoded text (caesar cipher, reverse alphabet, substitution cipher, morse code etc) for an AR game or whatever, Canonn Decryptor is amazing, being able to decode most cryptograms virtually automatically.
epguides.com - episode lists for a lot of shows - dramas, sitcoms, science fiction, etc.
australiantelevision.net - episode lists and guides for a bunch of Australian TV series as well.
Not something I visit often nowadays, but I still peruse Gamewinners via the Archive for cheat codes on PS2 era and older games. Gamefaqs has the faqs and walkthroughs, but gamewinners had the cheats. Kinda sad that the best equivalent to it nowadays is youtube videos showing exploits of games.
Spearfish Lake Tales by Wes Boyd. Really nice books written by someone who had a lifelong experience of writing. Start at the bottom (with the first story), and work upwards. This guy definitely died to early.
bruh.news - ai generated news headlines, pretty silly
The accept cookies always send you to the Never gonna get you down clip. Is this the silly part? Because if it is so it's pretty lame.

The Gemini protocol is pretty cool, if you liked the general feel of the internet in the BBS days. Mental Outlaw did a video on it a while back if you're curious. After watching that video, I bodged together a fully compliant Gemini browser in about 2 hours and spent the rest of the day hacking on it and browsing the "slow net"
