Messages - Breneir Tzaracomprada

Mr. Speaker,

I want to thank the Minister for finally giving an answer to my oft-repeated, as necessary, question. This question was generated from the Minister's own statement of priorities issued a few months ago. A couple times he sought to answer me by asking the question of me which was not an answer. So the question was reissued until an answer was received. The part in bold is the answer that has long eluded us:

Quote from: M:sr Pôl dal Nordselvă, D.Div, M.Ed on Yesterday at 04:06:27 PMAs for this question. I've explained on multiple occasions that I am reviewing legal precedents and laws to seek areas of reform. As of yet there has been little of note that I see needs to address or redress. If the citizens have specific issues to address please make them known and I can take a closer look.

I thank the Minister again for answering the question. I will follow up next month on matters related to his purview. And hope this can be the beginning of a more productive engagement between the Minister and the Opposition in pursuit of effective service to the nation.

Mr. Speaker,

I would add the bolded part is a surprising revelation. What, if anything, is this Government's A-X actually doing? That is a more original and urgent question.

Others have complained elsewhere about the member's "beep boop I am a robot repeating the same Terp every month" style of questioning. It is tedious and pointless, but perfectly legal and as Seneschal I try to make sure my Government keeps up with it. But what I will not tolerate at this point is this garbage:

Quotewe need to consider reforms to the Tuischach position as we can't have an official abandon their role without any way to remove them

How about we consider reforms to Talossa's basic political structure so it is no longer so easy for a sufficiently enthusiastic jackass to bully an elected official into silence.

Perhaps the best way to persuade the Túischac'h to return to active service would be for the Member to offer a full and frank apology, which I would be happy to convey.

Unfortunately, although there is a unanimous rejection by the Talossan political spectrum of sexual harassment, the URL is the only party which stands firm against regular harassment, which does far more to decrease activity and drive Talossans away than the other kind.

Mr. Speaker,

I am straining to see how objecting to a policy proposal is tantamount to bullying. I think it is what we call "normal politics" and I will continue to strenuously oppose efforts to limit the ability of the Opposition to hold the Government to account. I can see how that might be viewed as harassment. Dien's "strategic retirement" which now appears to be an abandonment of one's duties is a far bigger problem than the "harassment around every corner" scheme the Seneschal proposes.

I reiterate a need for us to reform the role of Túischac'h so that future officers will not be able to do this with apparent support from this Government.

Finally, where in the world are this Government's members of cabinet?

L'Óspileu/The Chat Room / New Furry Talossans Thread
September 14, 2025, 04:34:14 PM
Our furry friends are legally eligible to be honorary Talossans. To bring a little lightness to Wittenberg at a time when things might be quite busy for some I hope you'll join me in sharing pics of your furry friends.

I will start with my kitty, Enso. In this pic he is slobbering on my arm...

The Discord group of which the Minister spoke in his last response has been actively discussing plans for the end of the Cosa term, but nothing has been formalised yet.

I thank the Seneschal for answering on behalf of the Defence Minister. Despite recent difficulties I do care about Braneu's welfare and hope he is OK and will become more responsive soon.

Wittenberg / Re: Politeia Cjovani #3

This issue, a departure from previous issues in that little of it was handmade, features in-depth and mostly fictitious articles on the traditional Cjovani game, Kintoufle.
We would like to request (to whoever is in charge of these things) that Politeia Cjovani be listed as a current but irregular Talossan related publication.

QuoteThe function of a piece depends upon its entry:
Placed silently → Sleeper.


Placed inverted → Witness.


Placed upon another → Burden.


Placed with chant → Traveler.

I was highly amused by the Burden piece.

I hope your strategic retirement is going well you are missed around these parts.

This question is for the Avocat-Xheneral @M:sr Pôl dal Nordselvă, D.Div, M.Ed

Mr. A-X, a few months ago you mentioned conducting a review of statutory and Organic laws for opportunities at streamlining. What updates are there in your review?

Mr. Speaker,

I am disappointed to see that for the second or third time the A-X has missed a terpelaziun reply deadline. I would respectfully request a reply from the A-X @M:sr Pôl dal Nordselvă, D.Div, M.Ed and would also notify the Speaker @Munditenens Tresplet of this regrettable situation. :(

Mr. Speaker @Munditenens Tresplet

I am re-posting as this enquiry remains unanswered.

I also think we are at a point where we need to consider reforms to the Tuischach position as we can't have an official abandon their role without any way to remove them.

Unfortunately another terpelaziun has gone unanswered by the statutory deadline.

Quote from: GV on September 11, 2025, 06:09:01 AM61RZ25 Contrâ - Of course, it's the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund that keeps me from voting Për.  From what I've been able to find, the PCR over the years has had around it clouds of some sort of association with terrorist organizations.

To be sure, I am frankly leery right now of any organization claiming to help Palestinian children, as I fear any money given to said organization would somehow be funneled to Hamas, which is the real enemy of the Palestinians, even if they refuse to acknowledge that fact.

If Hamas had not done October 7, Israel never would have bombed Gaza.

While recognizing - and as a Jewish friend of mine put it - there are no "virgins" on either side of the Israel-Palestinian conflict, I acknowledge there being a spiritual dimension to all of this most people for whatever reason do not recognize and that is deeper than anything we can possibly imagine.

I want the Palestinians and Israelis to live in peace.  And not just physical peace.  This will only happen when both sides recognize the Jesus Christ of the Old and New Testaments as Messiah. 

That happy day will happen, but any more discussion on that, and this post becomes a novel.

GV - Fiova

Mr. Speaker, I wanted to amend my initial comments and reference those (above) of a member in the other chamber. I, of course, understand everyone will vote in accordance with their own conscience, but this endorsement of collective punishment is as abhorrent and dangerous when applied to Palestinians as it is when applied to Israelis or Jewish people living anywhere in the world. I would reiterate that it is possible to celebrate Talossan humanitarianism without continuing the recent toxicity or engaging in justification of crimes against humanity.

I hadn't really thought about traditional songs, but I guess if we want to be consistent the answer would have to be no, because there isn't a recording of the original song.

Noted. I have removed that one. And added Amy Winehouse.

Wittenberg / Citizenship Petition for Carter Montana
September 08, 2025, 11:03:33 AM
WHEREAS it has been more than a fortnight since @Carter Montana first posted on Wittenberg, following his introduction to the citizens of the Kingdom by officers of the Immigration Ministry, and

WHEREAS he has, in that time, demonstrated an active, genuine, and continuing interest in Talossan life, language and culture, and

WHEREAS he desires citizenship in the Kingdom of Talossa, and

WHEREAS by all indications it appears that he would be a loyal and dedicated citizen, a credit to this nation if he obtains the grant of citizenship he requests, and there will be less controversy with this petition.

THEREFORE I, Breneir Tzaracomprada, a citizen of good standing of the province of Florencia and of the Kingdom of Talossa, do hereby petition the Secretary of State @Sir Lüc to issue a grant of citizenship to Prospective Citizen Carter Montana, as specified by law.
