Chatting about video games seems to be the best chance at having a fun convo that doesn't turn into dehumanizing groups of people. If we can pull that off, given Luigi's supposed internship at Firaxis, the rotation could scrape by a passable 7/10.

More realistically, a 2 or 3/10 if the weed is really good. Otherwise I don't know if I would even bother.

I don't see the point of saving one days' effort and earnings to let trump into office and now have to pay more on so many goods and services because of his actions and policies.

the rich elitist hypocrite may not make it into office without your support, but they'll survive fine without it. Your own quality of life will actively worsen if you just stop voting, so I hope you've found ways to offset that (like a more local community and/or support network).

I'm not participating in any agenda

If my agenda is for you to not participate in the vote, then by abstaining you end up participating in my agenda whether you want to or not. If I can disappoint you to the point of not bothering the next time, then that's 1 less person affecting the outcome of the vote, making it incrementally easier to forecast and manipulate the results.

I'm basically anti-political now, it's [conservatives' and progressives'] world, not mine.

Others have said it better than I, but I worry this just plays into the hands of authoritarians who rely on apathy such as this to seize more power. I implore you to find your own terms on which you can engage with politics, but do (re) engage with them.

Just because some of us stop paying attention to "politics" doesn't mean politicians lose any power - it generally goes the other way.

Eleventh is a static site generator. You run it once, then straight up serve the files it output.

Server-side rendering is like running eleventy for each incoming webrequest (albeit only for the requested page(s) instead of the whole site).
