Official Coverage

This Gemini ad, which I have the misfortune of being consistently bombarded with

The commercial is completely nonsensical in nature, quite simply featuring scrolling text and a bust with googly eyes, seemingly expressing some strange hybrid emotion. It's inescapable, and something that Gemini loves bombarding everything I visit with.

Random observation: The overusage of the phrase "fight like hell"

I recently had the misfortune of stumbling upon an Amy McGrath tweet about the possibility of a Democratic Senate majority and/or Senate seats flipping to Democrats. In this tweet, she stated that Democrats should be "fighting like hell" to win Senate seats in a series of competitive states, and after reading this part of it, I had been utterly cringed out. This somewhat made me realize how overused the phrase had become in political campaigning. I'd imagine it once sounded cool and down-to-earth before the advent of social media, but it has become an extremely common political stock phrase, along with "the system is broken."

Granted, I'm not sure if the cringeworthiness was because the phrase "fight like hell" was used or because it was an Amy McGrath tweet. But it made me come to this realization nonetheless.
