Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like grapheneos, ali khamenei and english. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was asking.

But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the newspapers. It may not deserve its own post, but it deserves a wider audience!

Add awesome game deals to this topic as they come up over the course of the week!

Alternately, ask about a given game deal if you want the community’s opinions: e.g. “What games from this bundle are most worth my attention?”

Rules:

• No grey market sales
• No affiliate links

If posting a sale, it is strongly encouraged that you share why you think the available game/games are worthwhile.

IT'S RAWE CEEK! Welcome back to Formula 1, everyone! Hopefully everyone enjoyed the various holidays and having a normal sleep schedule on the weekends over the last few months. That said, I don't need F1 to mess with my weekend sleeping plans 😴

I meant to post earlier in the week about predictions for 2026, but I forgot/got busy/slept, so guess I'll just ask some here.

1. Who will win this first race?
2. Will our sole rookie this year, Arvin Lindblad (Racing Bulls), podium this year?
3. Will Niko Hulkenberg get another podium?
4. Will we hear Fernando Alonso scream about a "GP2 Engine" again?
5. Which team wins the Constructors Championship?
6. Does Lando Norris successfully defend his championship?
7. If not, who wins the Drivers Championship?

Feel free to add any other predictions!

As the title of the post asked, is there anything that you are no longer a fan of/support?

Feel free to share any experiences you have that made you change your mind on something. These could something smaller such as deciding to no longer support or engage with a brand due to store clerk being a bit rude to you in one interaction, to you disliking the actions or direction taken by a corporation/creator/franchise.

I did want to note that while this thread can obviously veer in to the negative based on the question, it doesn't have to be. You could no longer being a fan of something could be due to your tastes changing over the years, or a life experience making you decide you want to change your habits.
