presumably it's something through OPM or the pay system, so just the civil service

If this actually goes anything like it did with Twitter, ordinary citizens are going to notice IRL failwhales within weeks. Just hope they're curious enough to demand explanations.

fire everyone with so much as a functioning limbic system at the DOJ
end the federal income tax
incur the largest and most expensive class action suit of all time, or try to sic Homeland stormtroopers, themselves enduring random payment issues, on possibly millions if they're unable to seek redress through the courts

great plan elron

I of course have the kind of youtube search history that gets me videos about computer touching stuff, and apparently today the algorithm decided I might be interested in the test to get a job at Tesla:

with it being lower manhattan and all, it's very funny that they probably put at least $10 in a meter to park there in addition to the $9 congestion charge

...unless they didn't pay at all, in which case they can't complain to the nypd lol
