If anyone out there still thought DOGE was "volunteering," game's up.

Taxpayers deserve to know how much $$$ the technofeudalists forced on DOL are being paid to steal sensitive data, fire federal workers and dismantle critical public services.

This is huge - and disgusting.

Picture of milton from office space (man with brown hair, a red face, big nerdy glasses, and a mustache). He's leaning sideways out of an office cubicle and peering suspiciously out and something. He's leaning on his desk which is covered by a large stack of papers and on top of the papers is his prized bright red stapler.

Hi Feds! How was day 1 of having (nearly) everyone back in the office? Tell us the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Of the 3,498 service members who have received the Medal of Honor throughout U.S. history, only 88 have been black. The first, pictured here in a black and white photo is Sgt William Carney shown wearing a 3 piece suit and his medal of honor pinned to his left chest pocket area. 
On July 18, 1863, the soldiers of Carney's regiment led the charge on Fort Wagner. During the battle, the unit's color guard was shot. Carney, who was just a few feet away, saw the dying man stumble, and he scrambled to catch the falling flag.

Despite suffering several serious gunshot wounds himself, Carney kept the symbol of the Union held high as he crawled up the hill to the walls of Fort Wagner, urging his fellow troops to follow him. He planted the flag in the sand at the base of the fort and held it upright until his near-lifeless body was rescued.

Even then, though, he didn't give it up. Many witnesses said Carney refused to give the flag to his rescuers, holding onto it tighter until, with assistance, he made it to the Union's temporary barracks. 

Promoted for His Actions
Carney lost a lot of blood and nearly lost his life, but not once did he allow the flag to touch the ground. His heroics inspired other soldiers that day and were crucial to the North securing victory at Fort Wagner. Carney was promoted to the rank of sergeant for his actions.

For his bravery, Carney was awarded the Medal of Honor on May 23, 1900.

The Defense Dept has deleted references to Black, Hispanic & female service members as well as topics such as the Civil War from its website in order to remove all references to diversity, equity, & inclusion.
Sgt William H. Carney, a former slave, is the first black man to get the Medal of Honor.

It’s almost like actually humanizing trans people—letting us be in the room—creates real change and deescalates the culture war instead of treating as pawns to elicits support over, problems for being “too controversial”, or villains for being vocal about our issues to people who aren’t listening.

The PokéGods During a time when the internet wasn't as accessible as it is today, rumours of new Pokémon beyond the initial 151 we call PokéGods circulated in playgrounds and online forums.

If you were a Pokémon fan that grew up using the internet in 1999 or 2000, or even in the playground, you almost certainly encountered PokéGod rumours.

Here's a feature I wrote last year highlighting them, and their place in the fandom's history.
