      https://xkcd.com/932/ https://xkcd.com/932/ (Don't get me wrong, I think the existence of DOGE is a farce, but this website is literally just a blog...

  one big sad thing among others is how the doge meme, which carried with it a lot of fun and kindness baggage (the dogecoin community made a ton of random donations) ended up used by people who are the diametrical opposite.

    Reminds me of another co-opted symbol that had it's meaning transformed to its opposite.

Where are all the $500 hammers and toilet seats? Some of the items on there may be things he doesn't like personally, but things like $1.4M to contract out the operation of the Department of Education's mailroom are everyday operating expenses.
