tldr: i’m tired boss
as time goes by, i think about retiring from wasteof to an extent
i realize that sounds crazy, considering the position i was elected to
but frankly, i’m burnt out from the entire presidential endeavor and it left me with a sorta bad taste in my mouth
if i could abolish wasteof politics entirely, i would, but apparently people want another election to happen next year, so i guess not
idk, i feel like social media as a whole isn’t something that really benefits me at the end of the day. i’m just shouting my opinions into a void in the hopes that i get a number that indicates that one or more people agree with me, and maybe that’s not healthy
i’ve never been comfortable with posting on, say, twitter, because of what that website has become over the past ten years, but i could justify being on wasteof because it’s a small community and no one will ever find my account
but after discovering 70+ messages from a wasteof user i thought i was on speaking terms with who decided to say some real mean things behind my back, that argument isn’t really working anymore. i’m not a snowflake or anything, i think anyone would realistically lose the motivation to moneywaste if they had to read that (and if you’re tough enough to not do that, good for you i guess :P)
now, again, i’m just spitballing here, but assuming i really were to vanish one day, i don’t think i should completely abandon the internet. there are some real great people i’ve met during my time here who i think i’ve developed genuine friendships with. maybe i’ll keep my discord account? or i’ll move to a new one and only tell trusted friends where to find me? who knows
lemme clarify, everything i just said above was a hypothetical. i’m doing well, and i dont have any current intentions to leave the internet as of right this instant. wasteof is a really great site. i mean no ill will against anyone using this site, most of my criticisms are just about the nature of social media in general and are not targeted at you guys. this site as a whole is something i’m glad i got the chance to discover.
its just… retiring is looking more appealing.
thanks for reading all this
man…
i love when i discover a game years after it fell off and i have tons of fun with it post-fall off, but then i go on the internet and learn the game is currently on life support so getting into it at this point might have just been a massive wasteof.money

i bought telltale texas hold ‘em on steam a few weeks ago so i had something to play in the lead-up to poker night at the inventory’s rerelease, and after years of trying to wrap my head around how the game worked when people tried to get me to play it in real life, i taught myself to play poker over the span of an afternoon
i guess balatro gave me a head start or something lol
i don’t ever say “whoa hit tweet??” on wasteof but i’m making an exception here, thank you to the 8 people who liked my silly little doodle of my and @late’s ocs!
this is actually a frame from of an animation i’m working on, using audio from a voice call me and late had a few days ago. hopefully i can finish it because i think it’ll be pretty funny if completed. although it relies heavily on friend group inside jokes so i may only post it to Bodega lol
i liked elon musk better when i only knew him as the guy who sent a car into space for some reason and also wanted to nuke mars for some reason
shoutout to one other mutual who i found out one day is good friends with the lead creator of one of my hyperfixations
shoutout to one mutual who accepted my steam friend request despite only having three games, the most-recently played of which was tf2 ten years ago
