Can I get a browser extension that detects and removes pictures of the former guy from everywhere I go on the internet?
There is no need whatsoever to show his face

One good thing about the Internet is all the opinions, etc.
Two days at Magic Kingdom, and I expect every activity or setting to transition with music, fireworks, and a stop at the bathroom
When I was a kid, I thought adulthood would be much more about “wearing pants” than it has turned out to be
One latent perq of return-to-office is that, since I seem to be the only one doing it, I have the place here all to myself
