A cookie badge, a scarlet letter for unfollowing Tom

Your profile's badge shelf now has thirteen spots, including one for collecting 100 pastéis and one for dropping Tom. The second costs 100 XP, so mind your friends list.

You open a friend's profile and the badge shelf under their rank now carries a cookie and a little crossed-out robot. Click either, and the achievements dialog counts thirteen badges instead of eleven, the new pair sitting at the end of the grid, dashed if locked, lit if not.

Credit paulinevos, who wired both into the grid. Sweet tooth reads the pastéis counter on your whole account, not one commit, and flips at 100 whether or not pastéis mode is on. Luddite leans on Tom. Every new account follows him and he follows back. Unfollow him while he still follows you and the badge lights up and 100 XP comes off your total. Follow him again and both vanish.

One catch. Your XP can't drop below zero, so the 100-point hit only takes what you have. Sit at 25 XP, unfollow Tom, and you lose 25, not 100. The dock lands once while the badge is lit, not once per unfollow.
