This address was delivered by Administrator Balls on August 3rd, 2025, to a large and enthusiastic crowd of supporters.
When I started Chudgus.life, I knew I would encounter challenges. I sacrificed $11.87 to Namecheap for the domain and one month of hosting using offer code HOST25, and boldly devoted one hour of my time to changing the WordPress default template colors. Through all this, I pushed on, because I wanted the opportunity to create something new. In my visions I saw fields of green, abundant with enlightening literature crafted by the talents of the cesspit we call “Iskra.” This mission, I believed, was just and right, and my firm hard would temporarily break from Hinge swiping on my caseless, cracked (unrelated) iPhone 15 to guide it into existence.
But every Great Man of history will inevitably encounter misguided opposition. Tesla had his Edison, Hitler had his Churchill, and the Black couple sitting next to me at the re-release of Revenge of the Sith had our otherwise silent movie theater. Now, I must reckon with the specter of Jacob Little.
Mr. Little insists that I devote my time towards restoring the iskra.money archives. It is true that these files, which I graciously host on a sub-collection of Chudgus.life, are incomplete. Some suffer from formatting errors, missing images, or missing attributions. I do not deny these facts, nor do I believe this state of affairs is ideal. But what Mr. Little so jewishly misses is that, like the tip-based worker who served the black couple dinner before my Revenge of the Sith re-release screening, I remain uncompensated. And as a result, my time and effort is subject to limits. Oh, how I wish I could snap my fingers and restore the iskra.money archives in their entirety. But reality is not so generous, and thus I have to make decisions on how best to allocate finite resources.
It was true that I was following in the footsteps of a former project, the hallowed “Iskra.money.” But when building something out of the ruins of old, only a fool would construct his bricks from the ashes. We must instead put the sum of our energies into new projects – new articles, new posts, and new collections. To look backwards is to deprive the future of our talents.
And so I refuse to entertain this request. I will not put any more time into “polishing,” “re-importing,” “restoring the images to,” or otherwise working on the iskra.money archive at all. As the black couple who sat an unfortunate mere inches from me at the Revenge of the Sith re-release could attest, we must not let the old societal expectations hold us back from complete and honest self-expression. This is a new time. We must acknowledge the greats, but we can’t allow ourselves to become so bound to them that it encumbers our future progress.
Thank you.
