At .gov, we believe in creating a better world for the creative communities who never asked for our help. Founded by a coalition of retired skatepark janitors and experimental noise musicians, in accordance with Article irrelevant, Section relevance, .gov is the first and only federally unrecognized agency tasked with regulating the unregulatable. Our goal? To gently dominate the very communities that thrive in our absence.— we are here. Not because you wanted us here, but because now we have to be.

We recognize that real culture doesn't come from institutions — which is why we made one.

Welcome to .gov: the official-unofficial oversight committee for people who never wanted oversight.

We distribute streetwear with legally gray messaging. We throw unsanctioned events with official-looking clipboards. We uplift local artists by co-opting their work into limited runs of merch you’ll claim is “for the culture.”

We are here to give you the freedom you already had, but with more branding.

You don’t need us. Which is exactly why we were created.

This is not a cult. This is infrastructure.

Don’t resist. It’s for your own good.
