It’s month later and it’s unbelievably telling how incapable our government and country is bc a 19 yr old Redditor walks in and goes “I got the right to go in here Elon told me so move.” And everyone was so scared shitless of Trump they just let it happen

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.

Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

good as it's gonna get for now... meet Bakumi, an exploding ball mouse! bio and more inside #東方project #OC

🐁 Bakumi Hannaka 爆美判中 (ばくみはんなか)
Species: Kodama-nezumi
Ability: Creating explosive lanterns
BLEH! "Even that overconfidence is like those foolish hunters."
Bakumi: "Dunno why things had to change. Showering humans in viscera just doesn't do the trick like it used to, y'know." Suwako: "Girl we GOTTA get you out more."

- like with prior series characters, her more unusual traits wouldn't be depicted exactly as described
- what do you do with a mouse that FUCKING explodes? current idea: always carries mouse-shaped paper lanterns that burst into danmaku- might be a fun way to tie into her constant presence on the mountains and gives her a fun "bomber" visual that would still feel in line with the setting
- hair on left side, scarf on right side
- round skirt-shape and frills call to mind the bursting bodies of the kodama-nezumi. fleshly-colored marking accentuate this. eeyuck.
- scarf like a tongue, or maybe an intestine?
- lots of jagged and torn-looking frills to give a "fleshy" look. laces and seams evoke surgical stitches.
- trying for slight "tobi shokunin" elements- japanese construction worker attire- because of her explosive-oriented powers. has a belt and small hat meant to look like a tiny hardhat. it also is meant to evoke a brain!!
- doesn't actually do anything related to demolition, though, so important not to make the image too strong.
- two main visual motifs are "guts" and "bombs". grisly ideas but ntm on the imagery. this is touhou, after all!
- has suwako's hat eyeballs as a design motif to draw attention to their connection
- combined with other elements the eyeballs are also recontextualized under the more grisly motif of mouse innards
- sideswept look. very wavy hair texture. i really like ZUN's koishi!
- small asymmetrical elements to keep things WEIRD and dissonant
- boots? boots are cute. shoe fasteners look like gashes with stitches. it'll be sick
- to glasses or not to glasses? decided that she's "old" for her kind, so it'd be a pretty clear shorthand for wisdom, much like with mamizou. though she certainly isn't all that wise, and she's only older by a few minutes, anyway. more importantly, glasses are cute.
