I think Google and search engines may have lost their way when they started using people's location and providing localized results. I want to search the world for the best information when I search for something. If I want local results I'd include location in the search.

Sign Kyrie To Extension Or Trade
If I was Masai Ujiri and Mavericks I might either trade Kyrie Irving now or more likely risk signing him to an extension through 2028-29 with no player option, AND trade him next off-season, as you often get most value from trading star players in off-season on guaranteed money.

Melody Turtle Beats Running Rabbit
I found it very revealing and enjoyable when Alicia Keys finally came on American Idol to sing her masterpiece Fallin', *25 years* after it was released and it was covered incessantly by contestants running more than a marathoner, she mostly sang the original melody of a song.

We've Lost Our Way For Today
I think it's kind of a shame we created a legal system of judges and lawyers who aim to be intelligent and work hard for poor people who are wronged, just for so much of their time and work to be spent on greedy and selfish people like Elon Musk and Sam Altman to get even richer.

Humans Keep Making Great Music
Madison Moon, Philmon Lee, Abayomi, Makiyah, Jake Thistle, Julian Kalel, Mor Ilderton, Khloe Grace, Genevieve Heyward, Ruby Rae, Trew The Star, and Julianne Post leaving as early as they did prove humans keep making great music, as they were all incredibly enjoyable to listen to.
We're Either Getting Better Or Worse?
It may not be that striving for goals, improving ourselves, finding a purpose, thinking positively, or getting better is necessarily important for us to be content, but that if we aren't striving to be better we may turn to negative actions and thoughts that make us unhappier.
Playoff Series Start In Game One
If a playoff series doesn't start until a team loses at home, then there would be playoff series that finished without starting, and therefore did not even happen. I know sayings aren't meant to be taken literally, but it's still odd one is so popular that's literally incorrect.
Great Bands With Great Lyrics
Who are a few of your favorite lesser known music artists and bands from any genre in the 2020s who make great music with great lyrics? Allen Stone, Wet Leg, King Princess, Big Thief, Youth Lagoon, and Julia Jacklin are a few I like and have albums from.
Large Touch Screens Need A Bezel?
I wonder if one reason rumored M6 MacBook Pro with OLED touchscreen might be redesigned like iPad Pro with camera inside bezels and no hole punch is because touching very edge of large displays in front of you may not work well, unlike a small iPhone you hold steady in your hand.

The Struggle Between Love And Hate
I like how the world as a whole and all of the kindly performative and emotionally authentic humans currently living and existing within it are both way too mean and way too nice at the same time, theoretically creating a constant struggle between peaceful love and selfish hate.
Could iPad Apps Come To Macs?
Since MacBook Neo got A18 Pro, iPad Air and Pro have M1 and later, and touch is likely coming to MacBooks, I wonder if Apple might merge iPadOS into macOS, allow all iPad apps on all Macs, and have macOS install on iPads other than mini that have 128GB and M2, A18 Pro, or better.
Superman Never Made Any Money
Superman never made any money, savin' the world from Solomon Grundy. And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man like him. - Crash Test Dummies
Antichrist Television Blues Is Underrated
It was really hard choosing Power Out as the song I might share from Arcade Fire's first two albums, and admitting Funeral might be more popular for a reason, even though Neon Bible and Antichrist Television Blues were my firsts and favorites for years.
The Age Of Yin
An abundancy of yin there may now currently be, and vivacity of yang we might not truthfully see.
