This boy still has baby formula breath.

A DOGE official in his 20s testified today that he canceled federal research grants based on personal judgment. No peer review. No subject matter expertise. No formal process. Just him. And books he had read. He flagged a grant studying HIV in prisons during the Reagan and Clinton era — decades of academic research — as “one of the craziest” because it mentioned LGBTQ in the description.

He flagged a grant examining the military service experiences of Black, Native American, female, and immigrant veterans as crazy.

His qualification for making these calls: “A person can have enough judgment from reading books.” He was then asked if he regretted cutting programs that may have led to people dying. “No.” Did DOGE reduce the deficit?

“No.” A person in their 20s. Reading books. Canceling peer-reviewed academic research. Deciding what knowledge the American government is allowed to fund. No experience. No regret. No results. Under oath.

Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.

moondae doesn't know what is going on.

he just awakened by a loud noise, as if someone had fallen from their bed. he looked at the culprit and saw bae sejin, his current roommate's pale face as he looked at him

being a considerate dongsaeng he was, moondae asked him what is going on.

but then, he became confused. because his voice were softer than usual- it sounds more feminine. hmm?

then- before he could even call bae sejin again. he already left the room, calling ryu chungwoo's name- loud enough to stir everyone from their deep sleep

while moondae, our poor protagonist, decided to stand up and looked at the mirror. he froze, blinking.

one, two, three- he pinched his cheek, oww. fuck. what is going on?

in front of him is not park moondae nor ryu gunwoo. it was a female who somewhat resembles to park moondae. you've gotta kidding me.

ALERT:

ERROR! ERROR! ERROR!

looking at the system, he shiversled. what the heck is going on—

moondae then snapped out of his thoughts as he heard a the door of their room slammed open. there was lee sejin who for some reason looks flushed as he looked at him.

“ moondae? ”

“ what? ”

“ crazy—”

sejin was one of the most compose member of testar. but seeing moondae right now? it made his stomach churn. not because of disgust or what- but because of anxiety.

this moondae- this female moondae in front of him was drop dead gorgeous.

no offense, moondae was already handsome enough for the fangirls to go crazy over him. but his female version will surely make both genders crazier.

because that was what he was feeling right now.

lee sejin then snapped out of his thoughts, noticing that moondae is currently talking to chungwoo who is also flabbergasted just like them.

“ a-ah— ahm— eh? ”

“ moondae-hyung?”

“ hyung! why do you have boobs? ”

seon ahyeon, who came with their maknaes were also speechless by the time they saw moondae.

and not gonna lie- moondae have no idea on how will he explain this to them.

who would believe him that he became a girl because the status window is malfunctioning-

so, instead of saying things that will make everything more complicated. moondae only smiled at them as he spoke. his voice were soft, gentle and feminine that made their heart flutter.

“ so, how should i address all of you? ”

later that night. the testar decided to go on a live to announce moondae's 'hiatus' because of health reason. but i mean- they can't just tell everyone that moondae became a girl, right?

to appease the fans' disappointment. they decided to do a mukbang content while moondae, along with ahyeon and sejin prepared their foods on the kitchen.

they all kept reminded moondae that he can't appear on the camera- but then, it looks like they were all unlucky just like he was.

because- the loveviewers caught a glimpse of the female moondae who were about to go back on his room. and it was more than enough to make everyone go frenzy.

chungwoo who noticed the comment section's chaos, panicked and before he could even think. his body moved on its own and ended the live.

a few moments after that, the testar went viral along with the rumour about their 'secret girlfriend'

“ ah, shit. ”

“ m-moondae is going to be angry.. ”
