Every three months or so, the YouTube algorithm decides that all I want to see is clips from the movie MONEYBALL. I've never even seen MONEYBALL. But I clicked on a clip once, and Google knows that I am a middle-aged white dude, so presumably it just assumes that MONEYBALL is a load-bearing component of my personality

The comedian and podcaster Jamie Loftus used to do a bit where she talked about MONEYBALL as the centerpiece of what she called "the Boyfriend Criterion Collection"
@jalefkowit Fairly sure I've seen all of The Sopranos this way without ever watching a single episode.
@jalefkowit I logged out of youtube recently and forgot to sign back in. The videos it recommends are nearly 100 percent some flavor of "karen thinks she's cute. cop shows her otherwise," or "Arrogant cop shows attitude. FBI agent wipes grin off his face."
Now I know why one of my friends was always texting me about the karen videos he watches on youtube all the time
