last night at the bar i picked this album out of the bin of vinyls and played it on their turntable. took a photo of the cover with my phone because i thought it was interesting.
today, amazon is -out of the blue- suggesting i buy it. amazon has never suggested i buy vinyl from them before.
this seems to suggest that amazon somehow knows i was listening to the album last night, which is unlikely because it has never suggested music to me before, or that it knows i took a photo of the album.
what the fucking fuck
