Good evening all,

Given the extension of our Cosa term by a month, I am going to extend the signup period until Monday, April 20.

That seems nice and straightforward to me. Consider it seconded, micked, whichever you prefer.

Personally I think a quick "straw poll" or primary of the members in the province in question should be sufficient, whether held on Witt or elsewhere, but we also may need to devise a method of breaking ties if necessary (via a party-wide vote, Comita selection, whatever).

I also more formally move to replace all instances of the word Esecutorxheu with Esecutorxhă.

I'm aware that this might mean packing a list with people who agree in advance not to take seats, but if people want to game the system to such an extent there's not much you can do about it.

I'll keep an open mind on this when it comes to the wording of the actual legislation, however I think we may want to avoid getting too bogged down in the weeds on specifics. More specific than the party platform, yes, but not as specific as final legislation. Flexibility is useful.

QuoteAgree; but we need more detail on what this might mean before we put it in a platform. Does the incumbent Túischac'h @Marcel Eðo Pairescu Tafial, UrGP have any ideas?

I'd still like to invite the Tuischac'h to comment, if he has a moment. (I know he's fairly busy, so no pressure if he doesn't.)

Paging @mximo

Just checking in quick with either the SKA or SVA to ensure this doesn't get forgotten. :)

Quote from: Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be on March 20, 2026, 03:36:56 PMOne other suggestion for the Baron: roast vegetable salad. Diced sweet potato, red onion, Brussels sprouts, and broccoli on a tray in the oven, toss with mixed greens. Use the leftover vegetables with eggs in a hash for breakfast one day on the weekend. Simple, versatile, tasty.

We do the roast vegetables and will often have them with eggs, although I'm not sure we ever have had them in a salad.  I wouldn't have thought of that -- I'd guess you have to dice them pretty small so that big chunks of veggies don't overwhelm your lettuce?

The general rule of thumb that we use is "cut the Brussels sprouts in half lengthwise, then size the sweet potato and onion to match". SP cubes end up being about 3/4" - 1" on a side. The broccoli florets are basically just left as they are, lol.

Congratulations and welcome, No·ac'h! Since you're not just a Talossan, but a Belacostan (congrats on that by the way), as the Governadeir I thought I should probably let you know of a few things:

- New Belacostans who immigrate during the middle of a Provincial Assembly session have the right to claim a seat.
- You can also pick a canton and sextieir of the province to be assigned to (or have one assigned to you). This doesn't really do anything, apart from encourage you to look into local landmarks/features.

Azul all! As Talossa prepares to wrap up the second season of our fantasy hockey league, it seems fair to assert that ice hockey has become one of our more popular national sports (after cycling and of course Talossan football).

But what about playing it a bit more immersively, instead of just numbers and stats on a screen? There's a game for that. It's called Puck, and it's free on Steam.

It's pretty straightforward: first-person view, you use WASD to move around, and your mouse controls your stick. It's the finessing that makes it tough. You can play a private practice session on your own computer, or hop in to someone's server to get some experience. I would definitely recommend practicing shooting a bit if you want to be accurate. On the other hand, if we're all roughly equally bad, then the games should be entertainingly close, right?


I was thinking we could try and do a game of 3-on-3. Maybe if we get really lucky, there could be a three-team round-robin deal? It depends on when people are free and how many are interested. This is just to gauge initial interest, put a feeler out there.

I have already stated that this bill does not refer to His Majesty. I'm not sure which language it needs to be stated in to get the point across.

I intend to place this on the Fourth Clark. The Government can vote to retain Orwellian practice if they wish.

Yesterday, the Comità of the URL was informed by Baron Davinescu that one of his party's members had broosked a prospective immigrant by providing them with a biased description of the Progressive Alliance. While it is certainly fair to chalk this up to the inexperience of the member in question and their ignorance of Talossan ethical norms, it does provide a clear example of the obsessive partisanship which has become increasingly present throughout the country.

While we in the URL believe in a Talossan political scene in which open, honest debate on principles, methods, and goals should be welcomed and encouraged, excessive partisanship can easily corrode such an atmosphere. This incident provides yet another argument for a more personalized, less-partisan form of politics, which we will continue to strive for.

Quote from: Barclamïu da Miéletz on March 13, 2026, 04:44:51 PMIf I'm not wrong, being vegetarian is when you don't eat meat only, so I suggest any type of pierogi with a filling not made with meat as well, basically anything flour or potato-based without meat. I would also suggest making vegetable salad without meat (still a traditional Polish side dish even though it originated in Russia).

My mother's family has long done the traditional Christmas Eve pierogi, but in our case it's always been a simple filling of potato, cheese, and onion, which as a mostly-vegetarian myself I am glad to not miss out on.
