so up to the Verizon sale I didn’t hear the autoplay audio but I noticed the ads getting shittier, also worse targeted, I was getting Spanish-language mass-market stuff on the reg for a day or two

since then Tumblr’s been giving me eerily-precisely targeted stuff, political ads from the Oregon lumber lobby appealing to Portland lifestylers, other stuff pitching things I was already just on the edge of considering

don’t know if that really is what a skeletal ad team looks like under rapid deadlines vs. healthy, don’t even know who would benefit from juggling this stuff around but hair on my neck’s still at half-staff
