Agent Cupcaketober Day 5 is Dragon! Howie Timmons is a dragon well suited to modern life, especially when it comes to accumulating a hoard.

Agent Cupcaketober Day 4 is Magic! In the world of Agent Cupcake, each unicorn has their own particular magical ability. The green unicorn is Jalebi, whose magic could help you with your Halloween costume, provided your tastes lean Labubu.

“We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff.

Hey, while we're talking about erasing history:

In 1949 the US military held its first Aeriel Gunnery Competition, later known as "Top Gun."

The best of the best competed in dogfighting and other skills. The team that won, was the 332nd: The Tuskegee airmen.

So they refused to announce a winner🤡

James Harvey III, Tuskegee airman, leader of the team that won the US military's first aerial gunnery competition for combat aviators. AKA, Top Gun. James Harvey is a handsome Black man in WW2 uniform with an indomitableble look of calm confidence.

Tom Cruise in an aviation suit and Rayban aviator sunglasses from Top Gun.
