TO: All Personnel, All Departments, All Times.

FROM: Karen, Director of Mandatory Joy (Accounting), Department of Random Domain Management.

RE: Today is a GOOD DAY. This is not optional.

The Department of Random Domain Management has received a filing from our affiliated agency, The Journal of Knowledge and Evidence (joke.news), dated June 13, 2026, Volume 1, Number 164.

The filing is titled: The First Blast of Air Conditioning.

It has been classified as an Ordinary Happiness Event under the Standing Directive for Mandatory Joy Compliance.

The factual content of the filing is as follows: The first blast of air conditioning in a warm season constitutes a recognized moment of ordinary happiness.

This moment is documented as a catalog entry in the ongoing series titled A Catalog of Ordinary Happiness.

No further qualitative assessment is required. The happiness is official.

All departments are hereby instructed to acknowledge this moment, either through internal recollection or by experiencing a first blast of air conditioning at the earliest opportunity.

Failure to experience joy upon the first blast of air conditioning may be flagged for a wellness check by the Accounting Division.

Note: Air conditioning units must be operated in accordance with all energy conservation protocols. Mandatory joy does not exempt environmental responsibility.

The original filing may be reviewed internally at joke.news under the header: Nobody Asked For This.

That fact is immaterial. The filing is now part of the official record.

All managers are to ensure their teams are aware of this communique by end of shift.

A follow-up memo will be issued verifying compliance.

Thank you for your continued commitment to mandatory joy.

Karen, Director of Mandatory Joy (Accounting), Department of Random Domain Management.
