Okay, so at the request of the lovely @trance.bsky.social , I'm going to tell a story about what happens when a shitty person is "just joking", and then discovers there are consequences.

Musk’s website, DOGE, leaked classified government information to the entire world. NOFURN [Not Releasable to Foreign Nationals] information on their website about the [intelligence community] headcount has prompted a scramble as people check whether their information has been accessed.

The world is burning and everything sucks, so I'm going to attempt to provide some levity and entertainment in the form of an ongoing saga about the trials and tribulations I'm facing in a very stupid but very fun ASCII-graphics game known as Dwarf Fortress.
