Tired of the same old internet browsing? Want to tailor your experience to your interests like cat photos and butts? Then boy, do I have a list for you.

1. Unbaby.me

Use this extension to hide photos of your friends’ babies. If they’re over–sharing on the baby front, why not just adjust how you browse to swap in cute pug photos in the place of children you don’t really know or care about. If you like making babies disappear and want to try out other internet magic, check out Unwhatever.me to hide religious posts, spoilers, and political rants from your timeline. Although I’m not really sure what will be left.

2. Hey Girl

If you’re a Ryan Gosling fan, it’s your lucky day. This extension turns all the photos on a webpage to Ryan Gosling’s beautiful, beautiful face with one semi-creepy click.

3. Jailbreak the Patriarchy

This extension swaps the pronouns and other gender specific words in all your web pages besides Gmail. It also blows your freakin’ mind.

4. Snow

This makes it look like your webpages are snow globes by adding falling snow flakes. It’s great for getting into the holiday spirit or for keeping up all year round if you’re tacky like me!

5. Cloud to Butt Plus

This extension replaces “the cloud” with “my butt” and “cloud” to “butt” in some contexts. This is a really great way to spice up tech articles and giggle at my desk about whether it’s ideal to “store everything in my butt.” Ha. I said “butt.”
