02 / ABOUT
We collect the weird stuff.
The Weird Index is an independent short-form media project exploring the stranger corners of history, science, technology, geography, and the internet.
Every story is selected for curiosity first. We aim to distinguish documented facts from speculation and give readers enough context to dig deeper.
