Happy Lunar New Year to the dramanauts who celebrate it. 2025 is the Year of the Snake.

I made this for @NotX (definitely not @X, formerly chiobu) even though he never actually asked for it.

The following have sparks. Which one do you like best?

Update: Slightly more than a day later, 1 has 36 votes, 2 has 15 votes, and 3 has 21 votes. I will submit 1.

Yes, I realize that you wouldn't actually hold firecrackers like that. I copied the design from something on Google because I waited too long to start drawing this and couldn't come up with a better design that wasn't too similar to the previous ones. I started it around January 24.

^{The tiger is by @Dramarama. The others are by me.}

Without Firecrackers

The title is a reference to @TwoLargeSnakesMating, former rDrama codecel who left rDrama in early 2023

she is the only thing that makes me happy 🙂

Please thank @Kongvann for this or else

Also there's a new furry award in the shop, as you can see here on this post not limited to just the house! Now everyone can dabble in yiffing OwO

I am cautiously optimistic that we will reach the $4B/day FY2026 reduction this weekend https://t.co/XQBK3rqkwo

Reducing the federal deficit from $2T to $1T in FY2026 requires cutting an average of $4B/day in projected 2026 spending from now to Sept 30.

That would still result in a $1T deficit, but economic growth should be able to match that number, which would mean no inflation in 2026.

Super big deal.

Elon Musk's DOGE commission gains access to sensitive Treasury payment systems

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Department of Government Efficiency, run by President Donald Trump's billionaire adviser and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, has gained access to sensitive Treasury data including Social Security and Medicare customer payment systems, according to two people familiar with the situation.

https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-elon-musk-doge-treasury-5e26cc80fcb766981cea56afd57ae759

"They seem to want Treasury to be the chokepoint on payments, and that's unprecedented," the person added, emphasizing that it is not the bureau's role to decide which payments to make — it is "just to make the f-ing payments."

Federal Outlays Breakdown, these are what the treasury actually pays out

Throughout this page, we use outlays to represent spending. This is money that has actually been paid out and not just promised to be paid. When issuing a contract or grant, the U.S. government enters a binding agreement called an obligation. This means the government promises to spend the money, either immediately or in the future. As an example, an obligation occurs when a federal agency signs a contract, awards a grant, purchases a service, or takes other actions that require it to make a payment. Obligations do not always result in payments being made, which is why we show actual outlays that reflect actual spending occurring.

Napkin math with last years numbers:

• Social Security: $374 B (19.7%)

• National Defense: $262 B (13.8%)

• Health: $246 B (13.0%)

• Net Interest: $242 B (12.8%)

• Medicare: $233 B (12.3%)

• Income Security: $162 B (8.5%)

• Veterans Benefits and Services: $105 B (5.5%)

• Education, Training, Employment, and Social Services: $52 B (2.7%)

• Natural Resources and Environment: $39 B (2.1%)

• Transportation: $36 B (1.9%)

• Other: $43 B (2.3%)

Total Outlays Spending: $1.9 trillion

Assuming boomers and the defense companies are untouchable and muskrat isn't r-slurred enough to default on interest payments overnight this can be met by immediately halting payments for:

• Income security(162b) + Vets services(105b) + Education(52b) + Environment (39b) + transportation (36b) + Other(43b) = (.162+.105+.052+.039+0.036+.043) trillion = 0.437 Trillion dollars

Lets slap on a halt for all healthcare outlays including medicaid for 246b to get 0.683 Trillion dollars . Nowhere near enough dollarydoos to meet the target.

Lets make some harder sacrifices. All outlays to the penta-GONE (262b) for 0.945 Trillion. Now the target can easily be solved by reducing SS payments by 14% .

Bigger picture 1 trillion dollars is 3.65% of nominal GDP and 1 trillion dollars worth of outlays being halted for a year from this scheme fires a solid chunk of 2 million soldiers, 2 million federal employees, every contractor so something like ~5-7 million people? Pulling some galaxy brained napkin math out my butt thats 1/16th the total workforce for an additional 6% unemployment not including private sector income loss by sept 30.

UPDATE: FAKE NEWS

MULTIPLE ABOVE SPENDING BUDGET BY 3

Will this go through ?

Who knows ? Its literally the most illegally r-slurred way of cutting the deficit imaginable .

But muskrat says its the plan and this is what the payments system controls

Because sometimes you'll have to contact tech support. And they'll refer to you by your stated name. And you'll have to sign off your emails with your stated name. And in my case those emails are sent from a gmail account that proudly shows my real, actual name.

I'm just happy that I had the restraint to avoid naming myself Nate Higgers or the like.

The name I signed up with came from this meme which randomly popped in my mind when registering

Girl, you are so young- too young to be living such a miserable life.

Get all your ducks in a row and LEAVE HIM.

Like b-word do we even know it's female ?

Like the first time I seen a trans in my life was in Japanese game

https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/1ibxnwp/not_content_with_ahistorical_yasuke_ac_shadows/

I think they forgot how large the asian male population is. Even if their target demo did not buy it the asian makes would have well made up for it.

Homo forgot he is r-slurred Redditor. Would a non Japanese chunk want to play a homonorable Japanese warrior killing l'evil mayos and saving Japan. Or dildoing the japs little samurais as black Chung ?

For frick sake even japs would rather prefer to play some Chinese warrior than samurai because they literally releasing unlimited amount of dynasty warriors shit.

And sucker punch realised that since ghost of Tsushima was banned in Korea and probably Mongolia and China. So next game will be normal while you playing a foid fighting the evil Japanese colonisation. We often forget how evil japs were with native folks.

If you love anime you should know its history and like almost everything post ww2 it's created with a bit made in America and antisemitism (Disney) influence.

And sumo should let women participate because with rising fat women percentage around the world, land whales also need a job.

Still cant play as a Japanese samurai, so who cares...

If he want to play that much as Japanese samurai he can play the best action game about Japanese samurai that is like metal gear rising

But I bet our samurai loving Redditor didn't even played that hidden gem

this is her btw

Hey neighbor! Since I am one of the only normal people on this site I thought I would give you guys a quick reality check on current affairs.

1. Mexico is more important than Canada. At least Mexicans have Mexican food. All Canadians have is bad driving and false sense of superiority and endless amounts of Chinese bug people.

2. Canada is a not a serious country to us. Canada is and will always be a joke to America. You are irrelevant 20th century leftovers that only get to live in Canada because nobody else wants to. Its a frozen wasteland filled with mountainous terrain.

3. Canada is a complete shit hole. You might have teenagers fooled on Reddit, but the rest of us have made the unfortunate mistake of visiting your cursed land of mediocre socialism. Your food sucks, your music sucks, your drinks suck, your venues fricking suck, your roads suck, your drivers are the worst. Canada is purgatory realized. Even the fricking orange juice tastes like shit.

So please I know reddit has blown up that off-brand europoor ego of yours, but trust me, it's not reality.

Should have made the bet "how many EOs will he sign in the cuck chair?" (It was four.) instead of "how many will he sign today". Would have made the bet more interesting.

Ah well, c'est la vie
