Hi, I need to get some opinions about something.

First of all, I’m not running for wasteof president again next year.

It turns out that being wasteof president has been a lot less fun than I thought it’d be, and I want to go back to moneywasting for the fun of it instead of feeling obligated to engage the community in elaborate bits, none of which have been received particularly well.

I wish I could just abolish the concept of there being a president right this instant and formally proclaim Jeffalo the supreme ruler of this website forever. Despite the fact that I’m not going to be participating in the hypothetical next election, I remember what it was like the previous two times, and I’m not sure anyone in the community really wants to go through the experience a third time.

Then again… I did make a ton of campaign promises that I have yet to fulfill, and I don’t want it to look like I’m bad at delivering on my promises, because I certainly can deliver - but the reception so far really doesn’t motivate me to do anything.

Really, either option stinks, I’m at an impasse, and I need your opinion.

Should I kill off the concept of there being a president and face the consequences of forgetting to post a picture of some oatmeal like I said I would six months ago, or should I finish the job and continue to let this negatively impact my motivation to do anything remotely creative?

I mean… now that I frame it that way I feel like the answer is obvious, but I still would like to see what you think. Thanks for reading, sorry if this read like a rant (I mean it sorta was but I can’t really blame anyone because humor is subjective after all), and uh… I don’t know how to end this post, so I’ll just say bye.

jokes aside, don’t feel obligated to do the whole president thing, it’s already been like half a year since that election

if there are still people who want to run for president, an election should take place imo

if someone doesn’t want to be president anymore then that is completely fair as well
