Some DOGE Staffers Are Drawing Six-Figure Government Salaries Engineers and executives at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency are drawing healthy taxpayer-funded salaries—sometimes from the very agencies they are cutting.

when Elon Musk started recruiting for DOGE last November, he said the work would be “tedious” and “compensation is zero"

now it turns out some DOGE operatives are earning six-figure salaries, one as high as $195,200, as much as a civil servant can legally make

there's a guy in fatigues (doesn't look active duty korean military to me) with what appears to be a stolen riot shield lol

So the clip floating around of the NBA game with a bunch of consecutive missed threes is a really bad look but also everyone is missing the context behind that specific moment, it was an NBA cup game, the Lakers were trying to make up point differential and the Suns were trying to run up the score.

did a little survey of my socials this morning. the news from South Korea was all over Bluesky, nothing on Threads, only one post on X, a little commentary on TikTok and (surprisingly) at the top of my Instagram feed. feels like news orgs are trying to figure out where to invest for breaking news.

South Korean citizens helped lawmakers scale the National Assembly walls so they could bypass military barricades and vote against martial law.

Lee Jae-myung, Leader of South Korea's Democratic Party, live-streamed himself scaling the walls of the National Assembly to bypass military barricades so that he could vote to overturn the President's martial law.

Kendrick performing in Toronto on fathers day is NASTY WORK lmao

A few important fact to remember:

S. Korea lived under some form of military dictatorship from 1965-1988!

Brazil lived under a military dictatorship from 1964-1985!

Democracy is not an abstraction to these folk, it's a vulnerable thing that they want to protect.
