Wittenberg / Re: I'm done
Today at 07:49:29 PM
Fwiw, I am sorry to see you go. I enjoyed your contributions to Talossan culture and fantasy sports and your independent approach to Talossan politics.

As for Breneir, I don't hate him, because I don't know him well enough for that, but I do wish he'd just leave at this point. He's clearly incapable of reflecting on his own actions. The "apology" is really just more evidence of that, because his "compliments" were clearly not given in good faith to begin with (which should be pretty obvious from the context to anyone who saw the original remarks. My own intepretation is that he was being very condescending) and because he doubled down repeatedly many times after knowing it made Lüc uncomfortable. To then explicitly deny any malicious intent and only apologise for how his comments were received is entirely unserious.

It really isn't just some vendetta by AD and Miestră. I haven't been particularly active lately, but I'm pretty sure a majority of active Talossans would be happy to see Breneir gone at this point. Clearly this isnt going away any time soon, which makes me wonder why he is still here just to argue with people that don't want anything to do with him.

Quote from: Tric'hard Lenxheir on April 15, 2026, 12:09:55 AMYour highness, @King Txec, due to some difficulties I have with the way certain issues are being handled by certain individuals within Talossa and my inability to understand the hatred for one citizen by a few others. I hereby step down from my position as Attorney General and renounce my seats in the Cosa and finally I renounce my citizenship. Until the recent hatred for one citizen I had really enjoyed my time as a Talossan but if someone can be ostracized because, in the opinion of some, he didn't apologize enough, then I want nothing to do with this country. @Breneir Tzaracomprada I am sorry for what you are being put through, I read your apology and for what it is worth I think it is well stated and well intended, I do not understand the hatred being directed at you and honestly I feel that certain other citizens here owe YOU an apology. Long live the King!

Well this is confusing.

Question:
Suppose someone, already with a reputation for harrassing coworkers they had an argument with, worked in an office and they had some sort of videocall meeting and they have an argument with a colleague they aren't friendly with. Then, instead of responding to the points raised they started making creepy remarks in front of everyone in the meeting about how their colleagues looks good.

So, the next day they are called into HR and they are told 'we received some complaints and are told you made this coworker uncomfortable during your meeting' and they respond with 'I was just giving compliments because they are so handsome' and the HR person explains to them that this is inappropriate and they should stop and apologise and then instead of doing that he just sends a company wide email telling everyone that he was just giving compliments because their coworker is so pretty and if that makes them uncomfortable they should tell them themselves instead of reporting to HR.

Do you think theyd still have a job the next day?
