PRESIDENTIAL ADRESS | LILDIGIVERT

DIGI HERE

The inaugural month has been great so far. Despite controversy and bickering from some of our boomer political heavyweights, we've been able to make some real progress this month under our new secretaries. Over the next month, we're going to continue to promote a fun, productive, and non-toxic culture across DC. I said this during the campaign, and I'll say it again. Redmont deserves nothing but first class this summer, and we're going to send this place into a renaissance. I'm gonna start that by giving you my first government document verse in four months:

Sometimes when I sit back and really let it register
I did everything I said I would, and said it first
I mean the world's in denial, but they all know what I'm headed for (ha)
We 'bout to feed these youngin's to the metaverse
Meanwhile I'm over here just tryna pen a verse
'Cause I'm done bein' extra with the extroverts
Politicians wonder how they’re supposed to stand next to Vert
Prolly never thought that I would get these legs to work
I work hard, but hard bars don't need no extra work
That's why I show up in a sweatshirt and let it burn
The G.O.A.Ts call me to the side like, "Can we have a word?"
I could've fronted but I did this thing how I preferred
Mmm
I know I should be humble, but it's somethin' I just haven't learned
Soon enough I'll have to make these bad habits burn
Soon enough we 'bout to come and get the things we earn

You not a fan now
But I remember when you used to be fanned out
I guess that when the whole world loves you
People only got one way to stand out
All that time in the kitchen finally panned out
I put some flavor in a pot and took the bland out
I know my grandpa would have a heart attack if I pulled a hunnid grand out
So I'm not gonna pull a hunnid grand out.

Signed,

LILDigiVert
President of the Commonwealth of Redmont

Department of Health (DOH)

Achievements in June:

Unfortunately, the DoH finds itself in a very hard situation at the moment. The disease plugin in broken and no one in the department can properly do their job. At this moment, I can only talk about very small achievements, such as renovating the hospital, changing a few things in our discord channel, and such. The disease plugin is a core aspect of the DoH, and the fact that it doesn’t work makes it impossible for me to lead the department, and for others to do their job.

Goals for July:
Of course, the biggest change is going to be the release of a new plugin. Along with it, I’m finally going to be able to lead the department properly. I’m looking forward to renovate the guides on the forums and on discord, as well. I’ll be opening the Medical exams as soon as the new plugin is released, and I’m gonna make sure every MS is doing their job in training and evaluating new doctors. I’m also very optimistic about the vaccines plugin, and I’ll try my best to bring it back. I also going to fire every inactive doctor, and build up a new generation of active doctors who truly care about the job. I’ll make sure to promote the Paramedic job more, and to have more people use the /emt command. I have other small things in mind, such as meetings, and minigames to play together.

Everything I mentioned above, is only going to be possible if the new plugin is released by the next few weeks. I’m hopeful about that. I can see the department waking up from this long break, and making it longer will only cause more problems.
