Show HN: I build one absurd web project every month

I’ve been building absurd, mostly useless web projects for fun — and I publish one every month at absurd.website.

These are deliberately non-functional, weird, sometimes funny, sometimes philosophical — and usually totally unnecessary.

Some examples:

Sexy Math — solve math problems to reveal erotic images.

Trip to Mars — a real-time simulation that takes 7 months to finish.

Add Luck to Your e-Store — add a waving cat widget to boost your conversion via superstition.

Microtasks for Meatbags — the future: AI gives prompts, humans execute.

Invisible Lingerie — it’s sexy. And invisible.

Artist Death Tracker — art prices spike when artists die. We track that.

Open Celebrity — one open-source face, shared by all. Together we make her famous.

I just enjoy exploring what the web can be when it doesn’t try to be “useful”.

Would love to hear what you think — and absurd ideas are always welcome.
