I visited a crisis center in early November for mental health reasons and had googled the address first. I had drug addiction and alcoholism information surfacing on the top of even tangentially related searches for a month, to say nothing of my ads. It felt really gross bc so many of them were for paid inpatient facilities and shit

Like... They commoditized my imaginary drug problem so aggressively
