UnPolitic Your Feeds!

Are Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, and your friends who like to talk about them DRIVING YOU INSANE? With a click of a button, you can replace the politics posts on BuzzFeed, Facebook, and Twitter with...cats!

You may have noticed there's a presidential election campaign happening right now in the United States. And BuzzFeed's Politics team has been obsessively covering it!

But we also know some of you don't love politics. Or, you did until this month's quadrennial outbreak of national insanity. Or, worse, you may live in a foreign country.

So for those who'd prefer their internet cute and cuddly, we've added a button to the header of our homepage which replaces Politics posts with cats. You can also download the Chrome extension which will do the same on Twitter.com and your Facebook newsfeed, developed by BuzzFeed creative director Chris Baker on the model of UnBaby.me (which he created with Pete Marquis and Yvonne Cheng).

See it in action...
