Like a deranged man with a wrench in the middle of Chicago at 3:30 in the morning, inactivity lurks in the corners of our nation ready to strike. For now, it bides its time, beating its wrench on the wall in a little rhythym, but as soon as it sees a weakness, it will jump out and, knocking us on the head, drain the very lifeblood away from our nation. I am confident that a fully-grown Audentior will be able to resist these perils of inactivity, but as yet, we have no government, making that difficult. And for whatever reasons, we all voted to put off elections until January, meaning we have about three weeks before any sort of government exists. We are like a young child whose clothing is made of money with a big sign saying "Mug Me" on his back at night on the Chicago streets.
As such, I would like to announce some activity-building programs. The first will be the construction of a quasi-fictional Audente history in the Wizard's Keep, which I will hopefully start soon (weekends, even finals weekends, are a gift from the gods to micronationalism). I invite everyone, no matter what their cultural affiliation, to participate, and to weave the different cultures together in a unique framework that makes room for all of them.
The election campaigning is going pretty well, but I can't imagine we can campaign for three more weeks...at least not without saying anything. I am going to start threads on some of the more controversial issues in the election forum. What does everyone think the big issues in this election are? Let's see what the candidates have to say.
I may also start discussions on policies in certain areas. For example, what do we want our army to do? What (and Tom beat me to this one) should our economy be like. What kind of foreign policy should we pursue? Check the PICO offices for these and other questions.
Finally, we need to continue the little things. Holding random insult matches at three AM in the morning. Agitating over smiley inclusion. Bombing one another with smileys in jets. Playing word Association in Mingapulco. And, of course, complaining about the constitution. It's these little things that keep us at about a hundred twenty posts or so a day.
Thus, like the person who is assaulted by the deranged man with the wrench but turns out to be a policeman who is going incognito so he can find criminals, we will prove to be a stronger enemy than inactivity anticipated. It will be arrested and taken off to some gigantic federal penitentiary from which it can never bother us again. But we must for now remain vigilant and participate with renewed dedication and vigor.
