Planttankin is retiring.

Back in my QnA filler post, someone asked how I felt about the current state of Janitor, and I said I didn't care. I lied. In truth, I wanted it to burn down, or at least disappear overnight. But nooooo, it's still here as a husk of itself, so now I gotta deal with making a big deal out of me dipping out of here.

I have hated AI this entire time, but my near complete lack of social connections seemed to overpower any and all moral standing I could possibly hold. I'm not going to larp some type of mental illness diagnosis. I just didn't care, for most of my career, about any consequence of AI. But I hate it now, so completely and utterly, with every piece of my dead soul.

In that same QnA post, someone asked how my writing stopped being so depressing, and I said I simply forgot that I was depressed. That was also a lie. I never really "stopped being depressed", I just stopped feeling the need to let my feelings be known. Not because it was easier to bury it, I just didn't see a point in it.

I stuck around for five more months than I really planned on. That enemy with benefits bot really fucked my little plan up by getting popular. I'll be so completely honest, I am a selfish . I didn't stay because I felt some obligation to my fanbase, I just liked getting compliments for once. And, I guess I liked talking to some of you, like Round and Broly. But I can really only pretend to care about bots for so long. It's not much of a numbers game, but it's not like most of the recent bots have been smash hits anyway. So I don't suppose it matters in the end.

I've stretched this out longer than I needed to.
