    In 2024, is your memory still your own memory?

    I mean, mine is. But only because I’m a paranoid old bastard with serious Cybersecurity know-how.

    I’m not sure how the rest of y’all cope with the uncertainty.

    That said, they definitely added that bullshit squiggle to the Ford logo pretty recently, and changed how “Bernstein Bears” is spelled. There’s no way that’s actually been like that my whole life.
