sorry for the abruptness, but i gotta disappear from the internet for a few weeks to take care of some irl obligations that were scheduled before this election even happened. here’s what that means election-wise:
in the event that me/late are crowned the winners of the election following vote verification, @late has agreed to temporarily assume the presidency and share our victory speech on my behalf until i’m back, then we can do a real inauguration later or something idk how you guys want to handle this
and in the event that we lose, @late will share our concession speech and we’ll all… uh… move on with our lives i guess
either way, try not to burn the place down while i’m gone!

took nearly four years, but it’s finally been done
kiwi relies on a random 50-or-so-person internet community to help him with his random tech support problems, episode 00000000008239438532432
has anyone else noticed this weird issue with discord’s crunchyroll integration? for some reason my status is perpetually displaying that i’m watching bocchi the rock episode 1, when in reality i clicked on episode 1 for about two seconds to make sure crunchyroll actually worked and then immediately closed out of it (with the intention of watching it later… i’m not a big anime person but i wanna see what all this hype on the internet is about)
my point is, it won’t go away, and idk how to remove it beyond just turning off the feature entirely (which i mean… i did do that, but i like the idea of the feature)
OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE FROM THE CRACK HOUSE
As my final act as your president, I declare that the incoming administration treat this nations citizens with the dignity and silliness they rightly deserve. It has been an honour to serve you.
PRESS RELEASE ENDS
And to everyone involved: @oren, @engineerrunner, etc, thank you for your organizing/participating in this election. May the best waster of money win.
Greetings, wasteof.money.
Time is running out, even more so than usual.
I feel it’s only fair if I cease with the election updates at the same time that oren does. So to recap, here’s just a small sample of what you’re getting by choosing KiwiLate2025:
Continued silliness, with an increased focus on seriousness when necessary.
Pay-what-you-want waffles. Heavy emphasis on the “what-you-want”. That means free.
The resurrection of Redboxes across Wasteoftopia, which are now blue and dispense advice in addition to movies.
An exclusive drawing of a worm wearing sunglasses playing the saxophone, courtesy of @late. Perfect for framing and displaying prominently in your house to acquire the admiration of your friends.
A warm fuzzy feeling knowing you’ve successfully engaged in unusually civil democracy.
Even more: https://wasteof.money/posts/6869b01d3f164e109a02960f
While some of the other candidate’s promises can definitely be achieved without needing to be president and are just being locked behind paywalls, a lot of our promises we simply can’t do without access to wasteof.money’s national budget (or lack thereof).
If you want to see someone embrace a title for like two weeks and immediately forget about it, vote for someone else. But if you want to see actual year-long commitment, not just to the bit, but to the profession of being president of wasteof.money, vote for KiwiLate2025.

As your president, we hereby promise that towards the end of our presidency, we shall indeed do Gangnam’s style, as late has promised. Whatever that means or entails.
However, we can only embarrass ourselves for your entertainment with your vote!
Vote now. Save silliness. Save seriousness. Save wasteof.money.
Long live the Auri Administration, the finest President wasteof will ever have. 
OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE FROM THE CRACK HOUSE
As my term comes to its conclusion, I want to thank everyone who made it possible. My cabinet have done a stellar job keeping this great nation silly, just as it should be. My Vice President @Perrin has also done a fantastic job, bringing us together in the collective goal of silliness. But most important I must thank you, the great citizens that gave me this mandate. Your enthusiasm during my campaign carried right through into my presidency, without you this would never have happened. I hope I have been a president that you can be proud of, that did right by you, and that you have found my time at The Crack House worthy of your vote. We managed to implement all of my promises during the campaign, and I am thrilled we could do that for the wonderful nation I love so much.
For whoever may come after me, my only wish is that you treat this position with the silliness it deserves, not a stodgy, overly professional demeanour, but a beautiful joke orchestrated to amuse those of this wonderful land. Never forget you are for the people first, and the people deserve silliness worthy of their vote for you.
With that, thank you for giving me the opportunity to be your president, may the silliness continue to many years to come during and after the peaceful transfer of power. I wish you all the best, and all the silliness in the world.

statement
A few days ago, when this campaign started, me and my running mate @late made a simple campaign promise: put us in office, and we’d release a PaRappa the Rapper 2 gameplay video that Late randomly sent me a long time ago on Discord for reasons that are still unexplained.
Now, as the election comes to a close, we’d like to present wasteof.money with a small snippet of what could have been…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mw2omHi58fk
or what could be, because there’s still some time left to vote for us! To see the rest of this very epic gameplay, vote KiwiLate2025.
…and I was gonna keep this a secret until now, but one thing we didn’t tell wasteof was that Late gave me a second PaRappa the Rapper 2 gameplay video. It’s arguably the better one, though that is a matter of opinion. We’ll release that one in its entirety if you vote for us.
