I was talking to my girlfriend the other night about the last time we played Chelsea in a league cup final and mentioned the banner about Tim Lovejoy sucking big fat cocks, the next day he pops up in an ad on my facebook promoting a hair growth product.

Just glad it wasn't big fat cocks!

Not a mystery this one but googled smart thermostats this morning as thinking of getting one installed and wanted to look at the different options available now.

A few hours later get an email from Google Nest promoting their thermostat which I have not ever had before.

Highly recommend Tado

100% some apps do and you can read it in the terms and conditions.

If something is free, you’re the product.

Normally a player can look great on tubes, but one of the things that's encouraging for me is just the amount of youtube videos on him

Rafa Benitez: "I'll always keep in my heart the good times I've had here, the strong and loyal support of the fans in the tough times and the love from Liverpool. I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager. Thank you so much once more and always remember: You'll never walk alone."

This seems as good a place as any to share this. John Oliver did a deep dive on cookies, data farming and data broking last night. It's very interesting and creepy, and the ending is absolute gold. ;D

Me and a few work colleagues do a quiz from The Times a few times a month over Teams.

On Friday one of the questions was "That's not all folks! is a 1988 autobiography by Philip Bashe and which US voice actor?"
The answer was Mel Blanc.

Yesterday I'm scrolling FB and a 'suggested for you' page is Old Classic Cartoons with this image

Yeah, you probably shouldn't have googled for the answer.

"All the lads have been talking about is walking out in front of the Kop, with 40,000 singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone'," Collins told BBC Radio Solent. "All the money in the world couldn't buy that feeling," he added.
