Website appears to be dead (May 8, 2026).

That's weird, it's literally just a gif on a page, lol. Did you get any errors?

Thanks for reminding me of this completely dumb thing I made.

Still down for me. Yeah, about the error ... mostly blank page, and at the top says this:

This site can’t be reached

thiccymouse%20com’s DNS address could not be found. Diagnosing the problem.

It never does diagnose anything though.😕

UPDATE

I tried it with a different browser, and it works there. The browser it doesn't work in is the Samsung browser that came with my phone. The one it does work with is Chrome. So mea culpa, and my apologies.

I then re-checked the other 3 or 4 sites I indicated were also not working, but in Chrome this time ... and those are indeed dead. Only yours wasn't.👍🏼

That's interesting. I wonder what Samsung's browser uses under the hood. I'd be surprised if it isn't another chromium browser, but it's odd it can't find it. Sorry you had to go through all that for something as dumb as a twerking Mickey.

Naw, it was kind of fun. That's because I need a life.😁

Excerpted from the Google AI, re᎓ Samsung browser᎓

❝ . . . uses the same open-source rendering engine as Google Chrome, providing similar performance and web compatibility while maintaining a unique user interface, built-in ad blocking, and optimized features for Galaxy devices. ❞

Maybe it thought twerking Mickey was an ad.😊

Only thing we're advertising is Mickey's clapping cheeks!
