Seems to have interesting things you may not know of. However, after reading the reviews other users left I feel like I can't give the best report as of I use a chromebook which will not allow ad-popups. Or it may just be my district idk.

Just killed my browser when the content didn't warrant it. I'm sure there was a lot of stuff going on in Javascript or something that I wasn't aware of.

Up popped a warning for this site and I then closed the site whereupon I received notification from my antivirus that an IP address had been blocked. I would not venture there.

Good site, interesting articles but definitely for mature audiences only. A lot of content is not appropriate for children.

Ads and popups interfere with site functionality, you might feel like you are on dial-up. Not actually worth all the waiting to load.

NOT for children - erotic essays (language). I did not notice any graphic nudity on this site. Although it is cast as "intellectual", the content is mediocre at best. Articles end with thumbnail images and links to erotic articles, celebrities in swimsuits, sprinkled with a few factoid / newsy pieces, etc.
