Count me in for efficiency. Count me in for slashing government waste.

But blanket layoffs at the FAA, or the folks that safeguard our nuclear arsenal, or the IRS employees making sure YOU get your tax refund… there’s nothing efficient about it.

Truth is stranger than fiction:

DOGE cuts hundreds of critical energy employees, including those responsible for safeguarding nuclear weapons

Realizes how critical they are, tries to urgently rehire them

Can’t get in touch with them because they're locked out of their emails

Gustav Klimt’s soft pink brushstrokes conjure up a dress similar to our silk plissé bodice in his 1897-1898 portrait of Sonja Knips. When cataloguing the bodice from our reference collection, we were immediately reminded of it. #gustavklimt #klimtandfashion #historyoffashion #1890sfashion
