Remember for a hot second when The National Enquirer tried doing legit stories and was actual news?

Five years ago, they held a 3 hour Friday afternoon meeting and asked "What hobby have you picked up in 2020?"

If the phrase "Nobody beats Howard's" means anything to you, you should know the company abruptly went out of business today.

"Disneyland MAGA Invasion wants to ‘Make Disney Great Again’"

Sounds like a good reason for an even larger group adorning rainbow pride colors to be at the park on Feb 28. And yes, this is about the grift. They're selling Patriots in the Park t-shirts ($30), hoodies ($50) and baby onesies ($20).

At work, I occasionally post tips and tricks to Viva Engage like the hover and scroll volume control with Windows 11. It's fun meeting new people in our company and hearing "Oh, you're the tips guy! I love those!" The downside is people contacting me directly whenever they have issues. Oh well.

There’s a Star Trek TNG episode where a person allegedly from the future visits the Enterprise. You’d think the Temporal Prime Directive would have been in effect, or the Department of Temporal Affairs would be mentioned. Both came in Star Trek shows produced later though. Still, Matt Frewer!

Apparently I missed that BlueSky enabled MFA. It's a horrible email-based MFA, but it's something! Now to authenticator apps!
