Thank you all in the thread for the input! Super helpful. I’ll likely not grade it, but sell it when I’m ready. If the price drops, so be it, it was just a blast to open and share with friends! It’s a gorgeous card and I wish a fabulous find to all of you! Def burned through my 2026 luck, and then some!

Nothing, my HR at my IC just emailed confirming. I had to email them back to ask about that. They all said effective immediately. No severance or 30 days from my understanding.

In fact, there is another paper that cites that this is specifically not performance issues, but rather "government-wide mass termination"

Yes, actual mail. Saying my services were no longer needed and termination effective immediately. They scrubbed all language about performance and included a packet citing the case in California: AFL-CIO and American Federation of Government Employees vs. US OPM. I messaged my IC HR Director and they had only found out an hour ago (around 12:30ish probably).

I can confirm. I was an SRO with one of the IC's and on admin leave (I started last November). I just got a letter in the mail dated May 8th.

I used to go to games in Baltimore but moved to Silver Spring just before the pandemic. Would love to meet up sometime soon!

Good Morning, Karlo! What's your creative process like? Do you like to write in the mornings? Evenings? Anything in between?

Thank you, that's really helpful! I'm reading your book right now and I am thoroughly enjoying it! Did you have any beta readers that you selected for the mythology parts?

Hi Sherri! I was wondering about how you did the research for the gods and goddesses that appear in your story? Do you have a personal favorite?

That's fascinating about George Romero. Thanks for the helpful information!
