Just noticed this comment while looking in the archives… You might want to ponder information bubbles caused by website personalization because I suspect you are (or were when you wrote this comment?) inside of one. Something I’ve found generally useful in the past that seems like it would help is trying to imagine how you would discover “objectively important things to know about that you wouldn’t have normally run across”.
Oh, this wasn’t through a general Google search, just the site’s search engine. I would be shocked if a search of “sexy” on the internet returned a Less Wrong result anywhere near the top.

Still, that would be a happy day.
