Week of March 24, 2025
Welcome back to another Week in the Rearview, collecting the odds and ends I’ve published on GOLIKEHELLMACHINE. I’ve got a regular roundup for you this week, and a Call to Action, so please read through to the end.
This week was a DOGE IS FOUR LETTERS week, because, while I enjoy doing all of this, I am currently out of work and have been focused on trying to resolve that, and the irony of publishing not one, but two different features focused on work while I am out of work does not escape me.
Pieces from this week’s DOGE IS FOUR LETTERS include dispatches from the Department of Defense, FEMA, the FDIC, and NASA.




Call for Stories
I’m mostly caught up on the DOGE IS FOUR LETTERS submissions I received after my initial request for them five weeks ago, so I’m ready to ask again. If you’re a federal worker, were a federal worker, or a federal contractor, and you’d like to talk with me, I’d like to talk with you.
Please review the information on the DOGE IS FOUR LETTERS - Contact page, and hit me up on Signal if you’d like to talk.
That’s all for this week. Take care of yourselves and each other, and we’ll be back at it on Monday.
