Creation of the Clearance — Sistine Chapel Badge Pass Premium Vinyl Morale sticker (2.5")
In the beginning, there was an SF-86.
Then there were 127 pages of addresses, foreign contacts, roommates you forgot existed, and that one time in college. Months passed. References were called. A stranger talked to your neighbor's neighbor. Your ex got a phone call she didn't appreciate. And then — after what felt like a biblical waiting period — the hand of an agency reached down and bestowed upon you the holiest of government artifacts: the badge.
This is that moment. Michelangelo could never.
