Honestly I wish I had a personal blacklist on my Google account so it could never show me results from specific domains that I flag as unwanted ever again, such as FUCKING PINTEREST.

Mah man.

Just a warning: when you blacklist a site it will disappear from search and images pages, however if you are in google images and expand an image (which opens on your right in desktop), all the additional images below that one are not blocked by uBlacklist, and there is no link in the results to block any of those images. It's the only short cumming they have.

Please tell me more.

???
About the uBlacklist issue I just typed?
Or about a quick orgasm? That might cost you $1.99 /a minute. :)

Cheap thrills for a dollar? Sign me up.

A $1.00 will get you 30 seconds.
But for free cheap thrills. Always sit on top of the washing machine while washing clothes. Especially during the final spin cycle.
For a HOT time, move to the top of the dryer!!!

I’ve been using Kagi lately and one of my favourite features is the ability to raise or lower the priority of a website in your searches. You can even just outright ban a site from your search results

-site: pinterest.*

Pinterest is but only one of many examples and I'm not looking to keep a notepad document open at all times to paste sixty -site: args from every time I run a search y'know

There was an extension called uninterested that you could toggle it on and off
