Kinda morbidly fascinating to see Google devolve into a horrible bucket of shit

Once upon a time you wanted to know Dolly Parton's age. We've now decided you're a country music fan!

I'm actually a huge fan of country music. But because I listen to mostly lesbian country, the algorithms don't shuffle me country music content. They only show me gay music. If they're lesbians, the robots are gonna tell me about them. If they make brand new old time songs, I gotta find them by social media association with other artists I enjoy.

For some reason targeted amazon ads think I'm in the building trades and keep pushing weird tools and supplies at me. My skills stop at replacing electrical outlets.
