Disgraced Massachusetts cop Matthew Farwell, 38, strangled Sandra Birchmore, 23, in 2021 after she revealed she was pregnant with his child, prosecutors alleged Wednesday.
Farwell is accused of having a years-long sexual relationship with Birchmore, beginning when she was 15 and he was 27, the US Attorney’s Office said.
I’m conflicted if it’s better to read this with the giant ad collapsed, but that would show another video ad that covers the text, or let the giant ad take 70% of the screen
My brother in Christ, use AdGuard or something. That screenshot hurts my soul.
What the actual hell!? The internet looks like this these days!?

If you disable javascript, you’ll have no problems. The ads won’t have any scripts to load from and you’ll easily be able to read all the text.
Ad agencies: why do you hate us we provide a valuable and necessary service and fund all of your favorite free things!
The ads: Po[GIANT FUCKING AD]lic[UNSTOPPABLE VIDEO AD]e det[FUCK YOU HERE’S AN AD FOR TINY COCK PILLS]ecti[YOU WANNA SEE BOOBIES AT WORK HERE’S AN AD]ve found[DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE VIDEO IT SCROLLS WITH YOU MOTHERFUCKER]
With no ads, the site doesn’t look too bad, to be honest.
Mull with uBlock Origin and third-party frames+scripts blocked.
Edit: my bad, that was with my normalize userstyle. Original looks like this:

After hiding behind an adblocker for years, it’s easy to forget what a hellscape a lot of the internet is. Thanks for the reminder.
For surfing and opening links, I use Firefox + ublock origin + noscript on my pc & android devices. I still use chrome for logging into services because more and more sites depend on popups and scripts for no good reason. It works pretty well most of the time.
