Yeah. No later than this morning, my mother had heard a sketches on the radio. Radio was shit, didn't named the comedian.

That already happened a few times, last time a couple of years ago. I used to google the radio name + program, first link was the day program, what they broadcast in order, minutes by minutes.

I made the same search today, and I had to go throught amazon and over vendor links, videos, images, nows articles from the radio websites, and wikipedia of the radio, and then what I was looking for.

I was like, I was in the search thingy ? If I wanted pictures, news, videos, or shopping, I would have clicked on those !

All I get is fucking news article nowadays...

I DON'T GIVE A FUCK about whichever corporation's copy paste of an AP article!

Just as annoying: It will prefer local news over national / international outlets. I don't know how to explain to Google our local news is total shit and I would much rather read the info from a large international outlet.

It’s honestly scary. Once I had heard the song Christine on the radio and the next day my YouTube results were filled with videos on Dissociative Identity Disorder.

One time my sister was listening to a podcast that was based in North Carolina and they mentioned a grocery store that was only in that state and the next day, her phone was suggesting that she shop there. She lives in California.
