Tumblr Has Ranked Its Top 100 Ships, And Yep, That's Sonic X Shadow Right Near The Top Published Feb 13, 2026, 5:01 PM EST Quinton is a Staff Writer from the United States. In his youth, Quinton was ridiculed for making video game ranking lists instead of paying attention in math class. In adulthood, people sometimes pay him for it. Life's a trip. Taking his first steps into the industry in 2020, Quinton has written for several digital publications, but his permanent literary home is right here at TheGamer. Before striking up a conversation with Quinton, consider the risks: he'll find a way to transform almost any topic into an analysis of either world history, Star Trek, or - at least this one's relevant to his career - all his favorite role-playing games. Sign in to your TheGamer account Sonic's his name, and shipping's his game. For as long as I've been alive, Sonic the Hedgehog has delighted fans across the world with his strange ability to attract devotees to the practice of fictional relationship what-ifs. Mulder and Scully? Canon. Kirk and Spock? Canon in certain circles. Sonic and Shadow? If there's a will, there's a way. Tumblr just dropped its

As part of its continued effort to force citizens onto its government-owned messaging app, Russia has today blocked access to WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram in the nation, while YouTube access has also been impacted, as it seeks to implement more control over what Russians see in social and messaging apps. The move is the latest in a series of restrictions on foreign-owned platforms, which Russian authorities have deemed as “extremist” providers, with Telegram and Snapchat also forced out of the Russian market. As reported by The Financial Times: “Russian authorities removed , which had at least 100 million users in the country until recently, from the equivalent of an online directory run by Roskomnadzor, the internet regulator, earlier on Wednesday. That step essentially erases WhatsApp from Russia’s internet, making it nearly impossible to access the service without elaborate workarounds.” FT also reported that Facebook and Instagram were also removed from the directory, which means that they’re now only accessible via VPNs in the nation. (Also worth noting that LinkedIn, X and TikTok were already restricted in Russia before these latest moves) Over the past year, Russian authorities have

Dressed in matching colourful outfits that mirror the decor around them, Stella and Lucy are trying to contain three high-energy chihuahuas wriggling on their laps — Tennessee, 1, Jolene, 3, and Dolly Pawton, 11. If you like Dolly’s unimprovable name, then you will love her Instagram page, @dolly_pawton, where she has an army of more than 200,000 loyal followers. Much like her owners’ house in west London, her page is plastered with primary colours, patterns and prints. It is an Instagram page so lucrative that Stella, 42, was able to start managing it full-time in 2018. Stella and Lucy’s love story began in 2010 when they met at Brighton Pride. Stella was living in Wolverhampton, caring for a friend, and Lucy, 48, was working in fashion in London. They navigated a long-distance relationship for six years. In their rhubarb and custard kitchen with a JJ Abrams print AKIRA SUEMORI FOR THE SUNDAY TIMES Stella finally moved into Lucy’s flat in the West End in 2016, two years after they married. But she struggled to settle. “There was a big weight for me in the old place. It didn’t feel like I was connected to anything there,” she says. That’s when

Audrey Scott | Feb. 13, 2026 Photo by Rocco Fonseca | The Triangle In 2024, I deleted Instagram. While this was not an easy step, I had only had the app for a year and a half in comparison to many other 20-year-olds who have been on Instagram for nearly a decade.  To me, this step was necessary as all of the negative repercussions of social media that we are warned of became actualized in my life. Years-long friendships were damaged when I forgot to post stories on birthdays. I would find myself unconsciously refreshing the app for more content even after I had seen what I wanted, and I was constantly comparing my life to the pictures I saw people posting and feeling bad about myself — even when I knew it was merely a fraction of their real lives.  While I experienced the sensation of trying to open an app that was no longer there, I experienced no other “withdrawal” symptoms. Overall, I was thrilled to be rid of the platform and felt freed from a level of overthinking that was present the entire time I had the app. Only a few months later, however, I began to

Cobb County government distributed the following announcement about its need for community partners to host polling locations: Cobb County Elections & Registration is seeking community partners to help serve voters by hosting polling locations for upcoming elections. To ensure Cobb County voters have convenient and accessible places to cast their ballots, the department is currently identifying both primary and backup polling locations throughout the county. The initiative was highlighted during the Cobb County Board of Elections & Registration meeting on Monday, February 10, 2026, where Elections & Registration staff introduced a new tool designed to strengthen community involvement in the polling location selection process. “We are excited to release a new way for the community to partner with us in sourcing polling locations in their communities,” said Michael D’Itri, Interim Director of Cobb County Elections & Registration. “Cobb voters know their neighborhoods best, and this partnership helps us find locations we might not otherwise know about.” Voters, community organizations, faith-based institutions, schools, and other facilities are encouraged to participate by suggesting locations that may be suitable for use as polling places. Public participation is a critical part of ensuring elections are accessible, secure, and efficiently administered for Cobb County’s more
