Don't worry, this sucks from the advertiser side of the equation too.

My team builds models to predict whether the 'search term' being searched for actually matches the 'keyword' we'd like to appear under. Google says they do that already, but "insurance plan" is obviously not about car insurance 🫠

It took me 27 days to get my rx refilled because of this. In the end I had to physically deliver a hand written rx to the pharmacy, and the pharmacy had to call my doctor to confirm it was legit

Because this is a schedule II controlled substance, I have to get a new Rx each month, zero refills πŸ₯΄

Of course the corrupt NFL rigs the game for liberal bastion of Kansas City, Missouri. They'd never let a conservative small market city like San Francisco led by God fearing Brock Purdy win the super bowl.

When I saw the NYT detransitioners opinion piece, I thought "wow that's the worst opinion article I've seen in a while". Turns out it wasn't even the worst opinion piece of the week, what the hell is this

I am absolutely going to watch Barbie and Oppenheimer back to back in the same day at the theatre, only question is which should I watch first? I see arguments for either order

It's enough of a Twitter copy that it can absorb Twitter content/users easily (assuming it can scale) but also offers a different enough vision that it can still be new and edgy.
