This is, of course, a fascinating thread from Kate asking why Google is effectively cannibalizing its own market for both digital ads on third party properties and search ads, by effectively taking away the incentive to click through to third party sites. I have a theory as to why they're doing it.
So this ad revenue metric is indicative of such a fascinating and weird set of business decisions by Google to inexplicably kill of SEO-- and I honestly don't get how they think this is going to pay off for them in the long run.

Anthem BC/BS came back, 10 months later, and decided that it was going to deny me and my son's rabies treatments, after already approving the claim last December.

Denying a claim where if treatment were not given, results in death 100% of the time!

In 2019, after Epstein was arrested, Trump told reporters he was “not a fan of his, that I can tell you.” Trump also said he hadn’t spoken to Epstein in 15 years, which would have been 2004.

But the just released emails prove they spent Thanksgiving together just TWO YEARS earlier. Donald's a liar.
