It's getting harder for me not to think my thoughts aren't tracked by cookies - eviltoast

Like, I keep seeing more and more ads about things I only thought about while not looking up anything online about it. For example: after I got out of the shower this morning I thought about how I needed to apply cream on my arms to prevent dry skin. It was only a thought that took me a few seconds. And minutes later I receive an ad on Instagram about dry skin.

I have never even googled dry skin. I didn’t say anything about it to anyone lol. And I get the ad the day I think about it? These things keep happening more and more for some reason.

I know it’s not possible and I promise I’m not going insane or anything, so don’t lock me up lol. Just an observation.

    my guess is that those ads go up in the winter (i assume you live somehwat north), as more people have dry skin in the winter. Which just kind leads to you having a higher chance to coincedantaly realise you have dry skin and get a commercial just after.
